Stolen AMV footage... on Arabic TV?

[Sierra Lorna]

I think that’s actually a cool thing. For someone to take your work and broadcast it over a TV channel where you can reach a wider variety of viewers or at least the idea of it is cool. They could of shown some credits or something though, I'll admit that much.

Not receiving credit is one thing but to know something you created is reaching a broader horizon is another.

It would be a lot cooler if they actually took a part of the original AMV with the original song, but since they turned it into mush by chopping it up and sticking another song behind it, kinda killed it for me...

More of a Reason to Watermark our amvs now,heh?

As for him making money...do you honestly want Arabian money? : /

Watermarking is definitely getting tempting... Or if there were some video format that would make it impossible to convert or put into an editing program. I guess mp4 is something most noobs wouldn't know how to edit with, but then again a lot of noobs don't know how to play them either.

But like BasharOfTheAges, I'm too scared of getting the AMV community into legal copyright trouble, so I guess he has to keep his Arabian money.

At least they're doing justice by making hte commercials not look like shit.

I wan't making a personal statement - i was making a broad, reaching generality that implicates just about everybody here.

this video isnt done by a pro seeing as when your a pro editor you get given your footage by the company ur promoting for which basicaly means you cannot even put special effects that change the story of the show in, also the fast paste edit isnt aloud either since it gives some audience trouble.

although this was what i heard at college =/

[BasharOfTheAges]

er... "pro" is short for "professional" which only means you're paid. That's the only denotative diference between professional and amature.

I await the day Skittles becomes part of a Russian political campaign. Then I might be shocked.

Wtf, what do you mean "who gives a shit", it would be a different story if they stole clips from an amv you made, if people want to bitch, let them, they have a right to, theoretically, stealing clips from an amv is the same as stealing hubcaps from a car ...

Or say.. Theorheticaly (butchered that word) Using Clips from oh I don't know.. A certain half hour animated show ranging anywhere for 2 - 3000 Episodes long?..

either way. If I made an amv that was good enough to be recognized half way across the world. that kick so much ass.
