Out of curiosity, is that because it's still being put together, or is something else going on with putting this together?
No rush, knowing that we'll know is enough. But it'd be a lie if I said I wasn't anxious.

Ok then while we wait. Its true you can make award winners with WMM but the default version you get when buying a computer (wut i first used) doesnt compare to the versions you can buy (that have a ton more options, etc) or Vegas or other ~500$+ programs. You know what i meant by my statement =o
Literally all i could do was line up clips, whip in a sound clip and apply 1 transition between each frame, nothing else. Now i can do so much more and i love learning software (especially software involving this stuff) lol.
and ok you got me, im anxious now D:

There's a lot of people out there who seem to think that just by switching from WMM to Vegas or Premiere will automatically churn out great AMVS with zero effort, which couldn't be further from the truth.

i've used WMM and it didn't really turn out to be the best amv making software. but after using premier and sony vegas, i realize that they have so much more options and they're really fun to work with.

I think if you can make a good video with basic software like WMM then you are capable of making even better videos not because of the effects you get in Vegas or transitions but the basic practice you had by using a less advanced software. You work on storyline rather than flash-ey gimmicks. You can have all the effects in the world and the most expensive software you can get but if you can't tell a good story or use effects properly you can just crank out a load of crap.
