The reason we do it?

I took on AMV editing for an 2'nd art. I LOVE drawing pictures of my favorite anime, and I LOVE making AMV's. Hey, I'm an artist! =D

It's for the fun of it, not for popularity, nor for all people to like it. Bring people cheer with an new AMV, show them new stuff, and make them love you!

You're forgetting about having fun, seeing your ideas realized in video, making something other people enjoy, and, if you're into that kind of thing, gaining recognition.

hmph, welcome to a-m-v.org where your amv will get a 1 star and no ops after 500 hits.

I stopped making amv's for people who might like the band or the anime when I realised this hard truth quickly. So I make my amvs because I want to do it, I dont give 2 shits what think about it unless its in an op and well i dont seem to get many of them, but hey if theres a vid i like ill op it.

Why wasn't that your original motivation? Making AMVs for glory is the equivalent to fool's gold 'round these here parts.

You menthioned fun? Making AMVs is fun? Actually, it pisses me off, with premiere being the lord-of-the-bugged ... and ripping dvds taking ages, and encoding, and sometimes working for half an hour on 2 seconds which no one even notices ... usually not even yourself.

I love making amvs, but I certainly don't have FUN doing them lol. Correct me if I am wrong though, by all means.

you sir are completely right... and since you have a quote from zabuza i have to agree with you 100%...

anyway i think making them CAN be fun i just like to watch the finished product afterwards and be like...YEAH I DID THAT! MMPH!!!!

in conclusion zabuza is awesome and i have a new amv on this site now so go check it out...some of you may not like it as much as my other one but i was going at a new approach so yeah...

I find the time it takes to make an AMV flies by. But I think I'm in a minority.

I'm guessing you just decided to skip the part where I said "For the fun of it". Yeah, over reading things like that happens all the time..

Also, why would I care if I got no more then 1 star and 500 hits? I couldn't care any less. I do it for fun, like I said, I won't give a rats ass if I got 0's for the rest of my AMV editing day, its only for fun.

Maybe your the one who makes AMV's to get opinions or something..
