Yah, It's Done!

The Art Of Competition
Thanks for all the help BTW, especially Janzki!
I turned it in today, hoping for at least a B out of it. We also have to give a presentation too later in the quarter, for that I'm working on a new AMV using footage from Kiddy Grade and a brand new technique I've come up with called Slash Strike Split Framing. Basically it achieves a fast hard action beat synch without giving you epilepsy like using flash frames does. ^_^

welcome back hatter, what number account is this?
nice essay, the only point i'd argue with is newbies dropping out due to competition- i think it's more they lose interest or don't have enough time.
still, it was an interesting read. i hope you get a good grade. btw, what class is it for?

Maybe, some of the stuff is kinda subjective, hard to really know for certain unless I wanted to go around and poll every person whose ever made a LinkinballZ video.nice essay, the only point i'd argue with is newbies dropping out due to competition- i think it's more they lose interest or don't have enough time.

Mostly that part came from some people I've known who have released AMVs in binary Usenet groups, some of whom are completely unaware that the .org even exists. They usually post their lil video and act like it's the best thing since slice bread, like no one has ever done it before. Often times when someone replies to them, usually kinda harshly, they seem to get really upset and you never hear from them ever again. However that scenario might not hold true for newbies who are familiar with the .org prior to making their videos.
I also believe that age makes a bit of difference too, although I haven't actually researched it, so it's just a hypothesis. I believe that most newbie editors tend to be of the tweeny bopper crowd where as most veteran AMV editors tend to be a lil older. Obviously there would be exceptions and again, it's just a hypothesis.
One other thing I've noticed is that a lot of veteran AMV editors tend to almost fall into a subset of the video encoding community. I know many regs here are also regs or lurkers over at places like Doom9. Sometimes it almost seems like this community is driven greatly by people with a background and interest in video editing and encoding in general. As Phade says in his quote, the first people to make AMVs were fan subbers (ie video encoders).
English 102, it's one of our MLA research paper assingments.still, it was an interesting read. i hope you get a good grade. btw, what class is it for?

How would knowing their real names help when the links have their Internet handles on them?Chaos Angel wrote:Would it have KILLED you to look up people's real names when citing them? Internet handles don't mean shit outside of the internet. I imagine your teacher thinks "Zarxrax" is a sneeze sound effect from a bad Garfield strip and not a name (I kid. I kid because I love, Alan :3 ).

It's sort of like if you talk about The Regulators, you don't refer to the author as Stephen King, even though that's who wrote it, you refer to it using Richard Bachman, a pen name of Stephen Kings.
