I did made two videos that I've always wanted too and it felt great to finish them. However there are new ideas and wishes that I didn't finished yet.

Some would call it a lack of skill, I just call it being lazy and easly distracted with new ideas. With some more effort I probably would be able to do those videos.

Mostly making effects. I'm just not very proficient in that department, but I need them to satisfy a concept that I want to use in a video.

The only videos that I've made that have come out the way I imagined them are the simple ones that took ~2-3 days.

I feel like this at the moment, and my beat sync isn't working out well right now so I'm stuck.

Nope...I've made a lot of what I wanted but have left a ton of ideas on the back burner...

I think it's impossible to make ALL the videos I've really wanted. The average human lifespan just isn't long enough, dammit. So I've just settled for making the ones that go for the mental jugular and won't let go until that last frame is rendered.

If I feel like it, NOTHING CAN STOP ME FROM MAKING A VID. NOT EVEN DEATH |:

THIS.

And I won't until a couple of things happen... 1) I dominate the world, 2) Makoto Shinkai becomes my apprentice, 3) I'm dead. But as Nya so eloquently puts it, death can't stop us either :amv:

(I would also like to note, that when I die, I will probably climb into my computer screen and dissapear, much the way Pablo Picasso crawled out from under his own bed and walked through the wall, which turned out to be made of paint.)

Yep. My first one and the one I am just about done with ( I have to figure out what I want the opening Tile to say and that's it) are both the ones I ever wanted to make.

The first one I made could have been better... I was still happy with it. The new one I did has been bouncing around my brain for about a year now. The 2 other ones I did I liked, they wern't anything that "special" to me.

Remember, the majority of videos on here don't get seen by alot of people. Just be happy that a video is up to YOUR standards, not the newest "Spirit Never Dies" type standards.

If you set the bar low enough, anything is possible.

If we're talking about obstacles wherein I just completely gave up on an idea, then no, it hasn't happened yet. I haven't given up on an idea that I thought I would really like to see happen, even if it involved some technically daunting challenges, I would still go and learn how I can do it.

That said, I haven't as yet done ALL that I've wanted to do and this is all just a time issue. When I find time, they will happen.

That sucks then, because I've seen all your videos, and I'm shocked that's how high you are aiming. Well I guess I'm the shit, because my aim hasn't shown my videos to be top of the line. Or maybe the videos people always wanted to make are ones that don't make that much of an impact on most people. That is awesome! I'm da shit!

But still, I haven't made the videos I've always wanted even though, I am in fact, 'the' shit.

I'm joking. Just some of these new posts are so high and mighty, I thought I'd mess around with the fun since I can't have that exact attitude. Maybe I'll have that attitude later to have the taste. I did have the 'I'm da shit' attitude for a long while about my belief in myself to make amvs, just my life and constant flow of discouraging factors(self talk, bad interactions, slip ups, etc) has thrown me off course, and now ideas don't come to me as well. I miss feeling like 'da shit'. :cry: And it seems like I wont believe I am so until everyone else thinks I am... so all I can do is think I'm capable and have faith in myself.

Maybe this will bring back that feeling?
