seems to be proof that my effort may be worth showing the general public.
Just because I don't have a miserable life and feel the need to come on the internet and bash everything does not mean I mindlessly praise everyone. I may not adhere to the elitist attitude this community is always accused of having but I do my best to give people my opinion and criticism in a constructive and polite way so that they may actually improve instead of getting discouraged. You might post and say 'This sucks' I will post and say 'I didn't like it and this is why-' one they can't learn anything from and the other they still might not learn anything from but at least I tried. There's ways of conveying your message to people with manors and tact, something I would have wished you had learned before bothering to come back.kickass331 wrote:burningleaves praises everyone
If they want to make a video to every episode of something that's their choice and from the 2 videos above it seems they are already putting more effort into it than any of yours I can recall seeing. But either way at least they are doing something more productive with their time than posting in every thread trying to find something to argue about.kickass331 wrote:as for your idea, it's dumb

Just because I can phrase my criticism in a polite way does not make it mindless 'praise'. I blow smoke up no ones ass and I stand by all my comments on the video. Better than I expected, needed some work and I mentioned the areas in which I thought the editor needed to improve. You may disagree and are entitled to your opinion, which you didn't even try to give and help the editor, choosing instead to belittle mine.

this may sound odd to you but I agree with this, I lack manners and I lack politeness, however this is intentional. I don't have a soul, I'm a psychopath, and as such I don't prefer being nice in any circumstance. However, I was offering advice, maybe it was misinterpreted, because I have always struggled making amvs when suffering from a lack of footage. I was attempting to state from my experience that editing with any less than 2 hours of footage can be quite tiresome. Although I may be blunt, it is my nature, and I apologize.BurningLeaves wrote:Just because I don't have a miserable life and feel the need to come on the internet and bash everything does not mean I mindlessly praise everyone.

Editing with under 2 hours of footage is awsm and everyone should try it.kickass331 wrote:this may sound odd to you but I agree with this, I lack manners and I lack politeness, however this is intentional.

that's like saying you can make a half decent montage with one episode of that 70's show on the progression of eric and donna's relationshipGunGraveOD wrote:you hurt my feelings.
Only because you did not say my videos sucked, you say my idea is dumb.
How can it be dumb, when each episode can stand alone as far as composition and narrative?
Why is it bad to take each episode and show all its best parts, rather than take all 26 episodes and reduce them down to maybe 5 or 6 minutes of all the best scenes? Or, rather, reduce it to one song and one emotional response?
I refuse to let my creativity be bogged down by the posturing of one forum member, much less my intelligence.
