Thats what I figured, I have now found a lot a new good editors and AMVs thanks to hereOh, you mean Gigguk's video. People have been AMVs are dying for many years. Don't believe them. The best way to get AMVs is the same way it's always been: getting AMVs from the creator themselves or from a community like this one. Given the higher level of difficulty (although not by much), the AMVs that tend to show up here in Opinion Exchange or in AMV Announcements tend to be much higher quality. They may be a YouTube link, but at least that will take you directly to the video.
18 hours of work later I now have my first AMV thats more story focus, it's missing a lot of the text as im still working on fonts but I started a lot of the masking work. I even did most of the storyboarding on paper (looks like a lunatic wrote it but)
