Forum rules
Please observe the following unique rules for this forum:
  • Please limit your new threads (not replies) to one per week. If you have several new videos to announce, create one thread for all the videos. (Note: if you forget one you can edit your post!)
  • Offsite links are allowed, but you are required to have a catalog entry for that video as well. Threads announcing videos that do not contain a catalog entry will be moved to the Awaiting Catalog Entry sub-forum and will be deleted in 2 weeks if an entry is not created.
  • When posting announcements, it is recommended that you include links to the catalog entries (using the video ID) in your post.
  • Videos that do not contain anime are allowed to be announced in the Other Videos section and are not required to have catalog entries.

Anyway, the AMV was mehish, and wasn't well done by any means. The footage was pretty bad, the sync was off, and it was just overall pretty bad. I suggest reading the guides for assistance, though I think this has been suggested in the past. Don't spurt and AMV every 6 hours, really work towards making something good, and you'll feel better. Take a day or two off from editing, then come back, sit down and VISUALIZE what you wish to accomplish. Then get some good footage, spend at least 2-4 weeks editing and making it look perfect, send beta tests to people willing to watch, taketheir opinion into consideration, and then fix what needs to be fixed, then upload it here for public viewing.

Meh. just my opinion. :?

Feel free to disregard it. :?
That makes sense... I thought my next "Major" AMV I would take every 30 seconds and give it to a beta tester to give comments on while I was editing the next 30 seconds...
Great way to make no one ever want to watch your stuff again.
huh?
Do you really think that anyone is going to watch 30 seconds of a video that many times...for YOU?
Not many.
And if they do and you still screw THAT up, then they'll never do it again.

Here's the thing. You doing that each 30 seconds will have the exact same outcome as when you post your full vids.
You'll post 30 seconds, they'll say long paragraphs of what needs to be fixed (probably the entire thing) and then you'll say something like "No" and you won't even fix it either.
You have to know what you're doing first before you can use people's advice. If anyone besides you isn't proof of that, I don't know who is.

I'm sorry, but the reason why I fail so horribly at AMVs is because of the lack of guidance I have, I have read tutorials, I know what I'm supposed to do, and I can't expect to have a good video done without other people giving me pointers...

You've made the same video damn near 40 times already...
People have given you enough advice to fill 900 help topics. You never apply what they say.

I've read tons of advice... but wait, what I'm about to say sound like my excuse with everything in life... lol... OK want the truth, I lie to myself about this all the time... NOTHING SINKS IN WITH ME, I TAKE ADVICE AND I HEAR IT AND IT DOES NOTHING FOR ME, I'm not sure whether it is more that I don't care, or more that I have some inclination to ignore it, just EVERYTHING I do in my life, I fail to take advice... It's sad... I read paragraph after paragraph and I'm either too stubborn or moronic to deal with it...

Neither of those should be the main consideration when wondering whether to keep making AMVs. The real question, which you (kickass331, I mean) <i>still</i> haven't answered for me, is:

Are you having fun?


<s>ME TOOOOOO! DID YOU EAT CRAPS?!</s>
