Ok, i asked TJ and he said it's avatars that have been uploaded to the org.

So when the org reaches 1,000,000 members, so we officially become a sub-culture?

Also, crack. You FUCKED UP THE 1900'th POST!

You just ruined months of posting! *runs awai crying*

Ugh... 3rd day when I started at college at 8 am and got home 12 hours later and still got homework to do and stuff to learn.

You don´t mind if I´m really not in a mood for editing right now?

@guy:
Whatever! Keep your head up for the 2000th post. Who cares about the 1900th. What shoud all the other 1X00 post think if you just praise this one?

yippy!

Makeing footage to 4:3 works really good. Just the first 4 scenes might have slight difficults (remaking masks etc.)

EDIT:
et voilá c´est 4:3, except the scenes before the drumrolls part.

Alright I´ll upload two betas now. The main difference lies in the composition of the grid on the piano keys.

Personaly I tend to drop the grid on the piano keys and just let the glas effect alone.
Note: Grids+glas piano keys is a good idea if the keys aren´t small and not short on theire appearence.

Edit:
Bauzi-Beta-06-A/B.mp4 are the current betas.

The footage should be now 4:3 comform for the final encode. Please tell me if something is wrong. I really don´t have a good eye for wrong ARs.

Edit²:
Moar betas. I´m for version D. How about you?

@Bauzi
Wait a minute. Wut happened to your happy, fun spaztic beta that i really liked? =\ maybe because im still new in this mep the one i watched before was relatively old, but isnt this mep supposed to give off a happy, uplifting feeling? Why would you get rid of all of that? I'm a little confused here @_O;

Anyways guys, i've been really sick for the past few days so i haven't been able to edit that much, but no worries! I'll make sure to finish my track this weekend and i'll definitely meet the deadline =3

This part was just a test. I watched on how sync like this would look like. It was just a little try out. Nothing serious at all.
The scenes, my taste and my patientience wouldn´t do it for this kind of video. I really didn´t really wanted to. So I sticked back on my original idea and placed in this little lovely story from GetBackers, I always wanted to see in a video. It´s not "in your face"-upbeat like Melee did. It´s something different and I like it how it is. I don´t really want to get away from that plan.

Poor sick Chiii. I´ll send you some q-sized cookies =D

@Chrono´s new beta:
Yeah I agree with Greg. Just one thing: The 'Y' should come from behind the 'A' in this kind of 3D space.

Greg wrote:Ok, Chrono, I won't comment on everything, because I wanna see how you develop it. I will say I don't like the kissing scene, even without the text, and that the Gateway letters look alright, but could be better with a more stylish font. Also, you might wanna superpose the A on top of the Y

All right, the A and Y thing has been fixed, and I've made a spunky new font for it.

However, I really do like the kissing part. I think it syncs well (for the most part) and fits my track's "story". Though unless you've seen Negima, I doubt many would get the connection.

How about I meet you guys half-way. I keep the girls kissing, but I overlay something over it, so it's not so bland and boring?[/quote]

Yeah, i'm with chrono, you can't kill the face rape

I'm moving today, so give me a few days till my semi-final. I'm trying with that lip synch but the i can't help but think i'm making it worse and worse ... And it think i can fix the quality thing, i forgot that i had zoomed in, i'll just undo the zoom and think that should fix it.
