niotex suggested building an editor list before going any further into detail about the content.
it looks like there's enough interest to do this.

if you want to participate but have not posted clearly that you would like to, post now.
it's not required to have after effects, but it's prefered.
exceptions can be made if you're an accomplished editor, and only wish to correct timing, replace scenes, or lay down the original track.

only AE and premiere for this one, folks.
there is no guarantee that you will be accepted. this is a selective MEP

WHAT ABOUT MAGIX AND VEGAS AND ULEAD??

if i can get ulead working properly i'd use that to cut characters out... and magix makes masking easy!

but yeah, either way, im up for it.

and dig up those old PM's... they'll give you a much better idea of what i was talking about...

I do have adobe premier pro. I would love to join, and I would enjoy having the third track, because I don't really think I would want to do the first one, now that I think about it.

the way i was talking about it with you was, I make 1 video, i send it to whoever edits second... then they make changes to my video and send it to the third person, and so on... then the final video gets uploaded on the org... sharing project files is gunna get really messy really quick...

i found the original PM. ya, looks like your idea is about identical. if you don't end up getting pro and participating, you're already guaranteed credit for the concept.

if anyone screws up a project file and saves it, they can just delete it and download it again from the server

just wondering, what version of premiere pro? I mean it would be troublesome if people all edited using different versions.

according to niotex, any version of pro should do fine with compatibility. which is why 6.5 is being excluded

hmm, i mean like if you made a project in premiere pro 2.0, and then tried to edit it in premiere pro 1.0 that would work? For ex. AE7 projects cant be edited in older versions.(i know that its only AE7 for the project though)

apparently.

theres other compatability issues. nio mentions some of them on page 1

i have a copy of pro floating around my apt somewhere... i just really dont want to install it... nor do i like editing on it... and how would the editing work? are you sharing scripts?? is everyone expected to own the same dvds? cause i know that when i rip a dvd, i just save all of the big vob files and d2v them together... then run the avs scripts through make avis... hence me having 1 fake avi file per dvd... and i know TONS of people cant/dont edit that way... not to mention that every time i've tried to copy over my d2v files i've had to re-save them with the exact vob files, because i accidentally forgot one one time and it threw everything off... totally fsking up my amv... and what about if i were to take make psd files and port them from photoshop to premiere? would i have to upload the extra file that no one else would have? cause if i were to participate i think it would be funny to have some crazy cut outs on the screen.... im not trying to rain on your parade or anything, im just curious on how this would work... and letting you know what you may run into...

sorry to double post, but i know there will be a counter argument to my last post with "but if we do it the way you said then we dont have the freedom of moving around clips and fixing timing spot and stuff like that! exc." aand you are right, but look at the tennis post in screenshots, they share a jpg. we dont get the freedom of moving stuff around and by sharing the psd file... and it would be nice to move stuff around in the original.. but who said you cant? you can edit over spots, you can cut stuff out and put it where you think it should go! be creative! and again, im not trying to bash your idea, nor am i trying to take this over in any way... im just offering an opinion... take it or leave it, it dosnt matter. I can tell you right now though, limiting the editing programs to those 2 means that a lot of editors wont participate...

we'll discuss how the first person should set up the files after it's decided who is going to be in the project.

for any vector art, probably EPS files since they are pretty much standard between vector programs.
for photoshop, psds do fine between versions. and AE should be able to take any version.
in the unlikely case that a psd gives a problem, finding a work-around wouldn't be hard.
