If you could animate your own music video...

Actually, I think it'd be kinda cool to see an AMV made in Flash. I don't know enough about Flash to make one myself (at least not right now), but I think it'd be a great idea. Just imagine the quality/filesize ratio, while you're at it. Use some sort of event/soundbank based audio like is found in MOD files (I think Flash lets you do that within its own structure) and you just might have the smallest losslessly compressed, video ever - and it would look good played back at any resolution.

If I remember correctly, trythil's and dwchang's DDR segment was made using Flash (plus some other stuff).

But that ain't fun.

No, it would be very fun! Just think about it!

If I could animate my own video, if I had the talent to do so that is, I'd use characters from the second season of Digimon acting silly in one of the digital forests. You know, mugging for the camera and stuff like that.

Damn, There goes every single one of my ideas.

You could do dancing, fighting, and explostions.

Just prepare for a lot of work.

If I did my own animation ever, I'd probably want to take regular film frames and hand color them...I'm not all up on that drawing thing...

Sure, it wouldn't be in strict terms "Anime" but it would be animated...technically...since I'm still going through every frame...but you get the idea...

I think one concept that would work would be to make the animating aspect a group effort instead of an individual effort. One person could do the line work, another could do the coloring, or have different people creating different segments of the animation. One person animates one part, another animates another. Or at least something along those lines.

I've seen a music video where someone used flash for the entire thing, so I know it's possible, but I've lost the link so unfortunately I can't show you guys what I'm talking about. Sorry.
