I'll give it a check out tonight. I've been busy learning After Effects stuff since I decided to try and amp up my Graphics a bit after my last full AMV.

They are all very rough, but to me, it feels like the world because IT'S AN AMAZING FEELING finally getting an effect you've wanted to know for so long done. I've avoided heavily using AE for awhile because I felt intimidated by it, scared of it and that I didn't have the patience. Now that I got over that fear, everything is slowly mending into place. It's gonna take time and effort, but it's not impossible as long as you put in the work. It feels like I'm finally getting somewhere with my editing after this 2-3 year break.

AND I FORGOT TO MENTION, THAT ONCE YOU LEARN AN EFFECT IN AFTER EFFECTS, IT'S SO MUCH EASIER THAN DOING THAT BULLSHIT IN SONY VEGAS! HOLY FUCK I'M LIKING THIS SO FAR AFTER GETTING THE HANG OF IT

Start a new AMV project. @ FarmXD

And in other news, I'm finding myself getting progressively better in After Effects. After sitting down with it, it's starting to become easier to understand. (Easy being a relative word.)

Some GIFs of the AE Project I worked on this afternoon.

It feels good to do something that once felt impossible for me and it's another step towards me attaining the editing style I want where I have more control of what I want.

I seriously know how you feel on that sentiment, man.

The main thing that set me back with editing was my computer + intimidation after watching all these new AMV's over the past few years with the recent amp'd in AE/More Advanced Sony Vegas users. However, I decided I wasn't going to get anywhere just sitting around doing photo's all day; Albeit it helped make understanding things way more easier and helped me pay attention to detail.

So I decided to take what I got and keep sharpening my skills until I'm at their level and won't have to worry about it. As the more control I get over my videos effect wise and timing wise + flow wise, the more fun it becomes to me and the more I like my video in turn as I share them with other people and similar reactions occur.

Because hell, even if I don't use an ass-ton of effects in a video, I find that some of the timing on After Effects can help me sync things a lot better than in Sony Vegas after I import a RAW cut into After Effects.

Made a short reel of stuff I've done this week for MY YT to inform them I'm still active.

Some of it may be a bit raw (Got tired of fucking around with the camera layer at the intro), but you gotta admit, that's not bad for messing around with AE in the span of 2-4 days. I hope to get a more firm control on this shit as the month progresses. It's fucking exhausting work, but I'm getting over it.

Main thing I need to work on now is my patience and endurance and I'll probably be set.

During edits against a 3Day IC, I have the deadline within hours before I begin editing. The tension feels great and upon completion of task I feel 8-)
