Just curious but does the "XX" mean something? People are going to look at that and think porn or something even without the last X... That's what i'd think when looking at the title from first glance. I musta been left out of the loop :P
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

You're the second person to ask that, and it really makes me wonder wtf they're teaching in biology these days.
XX is the chromosomal make-up of "female."
XY is male.

Ok, here is a very very very rought beta, it's just to see if the concept and the music fits well with the main idea of the project. Any suggestions or comments will be accepted ^_^.

Looking good so far. Criticism: some of the scenes go on for too long.

I really want in on this, too bad I missed it when it got started, Picking a girl is very hard. I could always do one of the Sakura Taisen girls... as they're all pretty strong and while they fall into cliche's it's more the cultural cliche's then the women anime character cliche. But there's a few others I could do.

What I'd be thinking of here

-Deedlit (Lodoss War)
-Kanna (Sakura Taisen)
-Urd (Ah My Goddess)
-Itchan (Battle Athletes Victory)

There's a lot of others I can think of that I'd like to to do character studies of. But right now those 4 are the ones that are talking to me. Itchan or Deedlit would be preferable if I can dig up/buy sources in time... I don't own either of those anime and don't know if any of the rental places have them on DVD. If I couldn't I'd probably fall back to Kanna or Urd.

Still don't know what song I'd use, but I am interested.

Topstar_Productions: Deedlit and Urd are the only two I know on that list, but both would work very well. Given that those two would work I can assume that the others you've listed would as well. You're free to try, I'll put you on the secondary list for now - if someone drops, or if your video is "omg-brilliant," (^^) you're in!

The aspect ratio is bad. Can you fix it?
Other than that, well, maybe you could work a bit on syncing but good so far.

WOOT! I'm back from vacation. :)

Neh, Lyndsey-chan, can I have a short extension? I may want to change my subject matter. The next 2 weeks of Naruto will showcase the Sakura/Sasori fight and I know she gets to kick some major ass. If not I can still use Mikoto, but I'd have more footage with Sakura.

Yeah, I know it's pretty cheap but I can change it. This video was only to show concepts, there are several things I'm going to change so it will be sightly diferent in the next beta.

Just curious, do we currently have an intro for the project? If not, I might be intersted in doing something.

No, no pictures, never again. At least yours were flattering. ; ;
As of yet we didn't have an opening, so it's all yours, Chrono. My segment's the closing one.

Thanks. I'll get the information to you as soon as I go through my music library, and decide on which anime to use.
