Uploading & Making AMVs ?

Post by kiyablossom » Fri Mar 05, 2010 1:18 am

I have been having trouble with my amvs on you tube lately. The audio in my amvs on you tube keep getting blocked and one of them is blocked completely in the US. Two days ago I decided to upload my amvs to dailymotion.com but as I started uploading them, two amvs were blocked due to "breach of terms" seconds after uploading them. I really want to continue making amvs but I don't want them blocked when I upload them. I plan on uploading my old and future amvs to animemusicvideos.com but I want to run them through sony vegas or a similar high quality video editor 1st, so that I can add a "watermark" in the corner of the video, so that viewers know I made them (since I had a friend who uploaded her amvs here but found out that someone downloaded and uploaded her amvs to you tube claiming they were his and I don't want that to happen to me). I understand the copyright aspect of it (and I have given credit for the songs to their owners) but I absolutely love making amvs and I don't want to stop making them. What should I do? Is there another video file sharing site that I can upload them as well? :(

Um, how about right here on animemusicvideos.org? That's what the site is here for, after all!

Not to beat a horse that's been dead for years but I advise against this strongly. Not just because enjoying your amvs would be harder due to the distraction but because most people wont have a clue what the watermark is for anyways after viewing it for the first time. Just be happy stuff is getting viewed and receiving comments, who cares who uploaded it and is trying to take credit for it. At the end of the day they are still the same loser. If by reading a few comments about how much someone liked your video they feel better about themselves then let em Lawls.

If your that inclined just put credits before or after. Usually those people won't go throught the trouble of removing em. Yes, they are that lazy.
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

People will steal your stuff anyway. There's not much you can do about that. Again with the dead horse, but there have been vids stolen with watermarks, credits, whatever, and the theif didn't bother to even chop off the credits. Look at it this way, this is a remix culture. We steal stuff to make new stuff.

I'm actually surprised that people are still having trouble with youtube. WMG was the biggest group demanding that videos get muted and disabled, but they actually made a deal with youtube a few months ago. I re-uploaded all of my videos that had WMG music to a new account, and they haven't said anything to me. http://www.wmg.com/newsdetails/id/8a0af ... e5d0b7333b

Pitch your audio, put disclaimers in the description and put your video in the ''Non-profits and activism'' category. It helps to stop your video getting blocked/removed. ^^

Also, if you're looking for a streaming site to upload your amvs, try here.
