[average 119.7 of 222467 opinions; standard deviation 436.9 ] - Profile: [Note: The picture is me in June 2009.
Aside from the image, this profile was last updated in... 2007? Anyway I'm too lazy to fix it right now.
I'm in the US Navy!
Wooo, who saw that coming? :P]
My current setup(as of January 2007) is a 2.2GHz AMD Athlon 4200+ 64 x2 dual core processor, an asus m2npv-vm motherboard with onboard nvidia GeForce 6150 + nForce 430, secondary vid card nVidia GeForce FX 5200, integrated ADI ad 1986a HD Audio 5.1 channel audio, 1.03TB of HDD space and 2gb of DDR2 RAM on a dual monitor setup with Windows XP Pro SP2(legal! lol. yay student discount).
Current Software is Adobe Photoshop + ImageReady CS2, Premiere Pro 2 and Premiere 6, AfterEffects 7 pro, and Flash Pro 8. Freeware is VDub + Mod, DVDShrink, DVD Decrypter, CCCP and MS VC-1 codec.
I can't wait for CS3, I'm playing with ProTools in school, and should be getting Avid on my setup at some point eventually. Final Cut Pro will remain a school-only thing. I built the computer myself, it was my first one. Yay. Case is a QPack. Which when I bought it was $99.99 =_=;; Anyway, this case allows me to travel, but also makes everything a bitch to take apart and fix, so currently it runs in "exploded mode" which is with most of the shit open. Case is surprisingly cool, though. Usual temp for everything is 32C.
Ah, I also have a capture Card(two, really), WinTV and TV@nywhere, but their specs aren't really important, since I haven't used them for anything here.... Yet.
[My last set up was so bad, you don't even want to know. I'll just leave it at '256mb of ram']
For anyone needing cheap hosting with a poesload of bandwidth, I recommend 1and1 if it's mainly going to be for storage. Of course if you want to script the hell up, I'd recommend other things, but that's not important here. ;P GoDaddy is actually less efficient than my recommendation.

Wow. Three years of making AMVs already! Time flies by. So far I've entered more than 50 videos into the catalog.
Not that I can say any of them are good, in fact, the only ones I can sit back and watch and not shake my head and say "What the hell was I thinking?" are the only ones that are currently downloadable. Well, aside from local-hosted videos I can't delete. (Note to self: stop abusing the donut! XP)
So, remember that. It's not how many videos you make, it's how well they turn out.
I can honestly tell you that I spent a lot of effort on each and every one of them, and in my videos' cases, it was usually too much effort, leading into headache. Which leads to bad editing.
It's a proven fact that you do better when you have fun. If you hate the video while you're working on it, it will most likely suck in the end. It can also go the other way. If you love your anime too much, you may not want to cut it up, and then you have a bad video with scenes going on for too long.
I have to say I've been a victim to that one too many times.
I first started editing after I saw Meri's old AMVs. But back then, I didn't have the computer nor the knowledge to make my own videos. So I did the next-best thing. I got a downloadable software named RealSlideShow(no longer available).
As I progressed through my slideshow making, I got to know the software inside and out, knew it's limits and did what I could with it for about a year, until I got one of the best presents of my life.
My brother gave me Dazzle, Adobe Premiere 6.0, Photoshop, and Windows Movie Maker for Christmas.
Unfortunetly, I had no DVD-Rom, yet a plathora of anime DVDs. So I compromised by recording my TV while the DVDs were playing with a camcorder. When I fed it into the computer, Premiere wouldn't read the files, so I was stuck using WMM for awhile unless I used downloaded footage, which only happened twice.
Well, time passed by, and I was really getting into editing. It was fun and I loved doing it. By the time I made my second video and started taking Video Productions in High school, I found this site. I had seen a few of AtomX's AMVs from Kazaa. I loved FFIX, and I was awed by what scenes he was using. He kept repeating scenes, and I was tired of it, convinced I could make a better video then he could.
Well, I failed miserably with my third video, but I guess it was the idea that counted. "A Part of FFIX" had been my first AMV using Premiere, since I had downloaded the footage. After it was created, I found myself more and more interested in the program and began using it more often.
But I ran into a problem- my computer didn't have enough power to handle it, causing most of my efforts to make videos blow up in my face when the computer crashed randomly.
Well, Christmas came around again, and I was appauled with the incredible gift of a custom computer with a DVD-Rom, CD Burner, much more RAM, and hard drive space.
Windows XP Professional was added to the computer, as well as all the afore mentioned programs from my last computer. After that, my anime collection went into over-drive, and so did my creativity. I made an onslaught of AMVs, none of which I'm very proud of, but the point was I had fun doing this, and it was much more then a hobby to me. It was an obsession.
Fortunetly for me, a few great videos came out from the crowd I created, one of my most memorable being "The Twin Star". However, I can honestly say I am shitty with compression, so most of my AMVs are crappy looking.
Now, I am really looking to edit good things, instead of crappy noob-looking videos. I'd like to have a career in editing, and I have to be a decent editor to get there. I've got the passion, I've got the experience and embarrassment. Now all I need the talent and degree...
--------------------------------
If you're looking for my good AMVs, I'd recommend "Fear Dot Hack", an anime trailer, the character profiles Tsukasa's Story", "The Twin Star", The Fanel Fate"(which also is probably the only gory, non-romance esca vid on the .org), "Forsaken"(which may be the only good serious pokemon video), the action/character profile "Knives' View", the lip synch/commercial Short "Don Camero", the action videos "Lost in Translation"(a 30 second short), "Hallucination"(a practice for an Iron Chef competition), "Cloud's Sentiment"(one of the few good AC vids made in 2004), "Totaltarian"(an unfinished video that's just fucken awesome), and my Project KuT-Up segments, "Kuja's Requiem"(ff9 'freak on a leash') and "Attention Whore"(Card captor Sakura movie 'feel the sickness'). And last but not least, the drama videos "Destiny's Journey", "Escapade"(Experimental), and "Poltergeist".
Also the romance "Jealousy" and the action/parody anime trailer "Eden's Angels" which both use the yaoi anime Earthian.
Note that most of the categories cross over a few times, so a lot of them are drama or character profiles as well, but I just grouped them together in what category seemed most dominant. Those videos in that list right there are my only good videos. The other ones may be decent, but to my standards, suck blatant ass. Also note that most, if not all, of these videos can be streamed on my MySpace, sqamv. I have a website in the works, as well.
If you're looking for non-anime stuff, go to my SheezyArt, it's basically a DeviantArt thingy but cooler. Most of my video shit is on there.
If there's a video you really want for some reason but can't find(or it's not downloadable), I have most of them. Additionally, I have my individual segments for Project KuT-Up if you want to see those but not the entire project. If you PM me on the forums, it's set up so it will always email me so I know; plus, my email is current in my profile if you want to use it. I also Skype regularly under the name SQ_AMV and my MSN address is the same as my email. I do not have AIM on my computer. It is the devil. D:
