NEW VIDEO PROJECT!!!

Slayerwolf · Post by **Slayerwolf** » Sat Oct 11, 2003 10:43 pm

This is a flat-recruitment message. I was driving around (as always) when an idea hit me. I want to put together and AMV project using the entire DAFT PUNK - Discovery album. With crazy beats and unconventional rifts, this will not be an easy project by any means. So, who wants to join me? If you are interested please email me:

slayerwolf@hotmail.com
slayerwolf@slayerwolf.com
webmaster@slayerwolf.com

If enough people are interested, then I will proceed to let track selection begin. If not, then it will die here and now. So, who wants to take up the challenge and step it up to the next level?

yeah, it's funny to use this album that already has an entire Anime movie associated to it

Emm...why Discovery ? Why not Homework ? (far better IMO...)

Enlighten me someone....

Through my own experience...alot of these so called Projects Die really fast....why is that??

The only "Projects" that I have seen made and be very successful are

DDR Project I, II, and III
Disney DDR
The NES Project 2003
Mission Improbable I & II

Nothing else has ever caught my eye or even interested me...I usually hear about some new project someone is heading up or this really cool thing about some idea but never see any execution.

Why??? Or am I missing something here?

There's Animix....

Plus theres the Marillion: Misplaced Childhood project which hardly anyone cept for a hand full of people seem to know about, who is pretty much those who are involved in it, including myself, but it wasn't really over all advertised that much, teh projekt undargrund.

The key is in good administration.

Just getting people signed up isnt enough, there needs to be a website with info, fixed deadlines and lots of status reports.

Having started a failed project myself I'm speaking from experience. The failure of the minivid project was in my lack of admin abilities and also the fact that the nature of the project was anti-deadline. However, without deadlines nobody will actually do their videos.

So a project needs to be coordinated and regimented well right from the word go.

Mad props to Hsien, Fluxy, Danny, WiLLoW, snacky and all the other organisers who've made projects work, cause it aint easy - just ask tommyrude

The best solution is to start such a project with a group of friends, that will ensure that the project can be finished, even if no one else (or only a few people) want to join. If it's good enough, people will want to join for the second project of this kind.
I think this happened for the DDR project, and this is what happened for Animix (some friends of mine - and other participants - helped and took the tracks that nobody ele wanted)

For such a project to work, it is not enough to ask if people would be interested...you have to show that it can work, for instance by providing an example (like NHMK did for the NES project, I think...)

Plus everything that Ian said. Start a website, offer to send the music to people who are interested, otherwise poople might be reluctant to do it.

And to stick to the topic, I'd love to join a project with Daft Punk's Homework album, but not Discovery, that already has an anime associated to it (who would try to beat Leji Matsumoto ?). this is my point of view.

I don't know why, but this sounds like an insult

I meant people, of course
