Dir en grey (Interest Gauge)

Post by Alastor BDC » Tue May 09, 2006 8:12 am

ok I've been thinking of starting a Dir en grey mep project, but before that I'm wondering who will be interested :wink:.

If anyone doesn't know this band here is a quick info:
Dir en grey is a popular Japanese rock band formed in 1997. Starting out as a Visual Kei act the group has since experimented with various styles while maintaining the steady lineup of 京 (Kyo) (vocals), 薫 (Kaoru) (guitar), Die (guitar), Toshiya (bass) and Shinya (drums). Their current music has become quite eclectic and is difficult to categorize, though generally they play a form of Hard rock music.

This mep is going to contain songs from the early albums to the latest one, so basically this mep is a tribute to Dir en grey.
The segments are going to run about 30-50 secs.
If anyone is interested post away ^_^.

well, as for experimental and weird music, I'm always interested! :P
I actually know dir en grey through the officially released album in europe and have quite some ideas.
however, it would be rather helpful to suggest or offer sth like a concept (just sth raw, since it is an interest gauge).

as for me, you have to give me time to edit, since school always takes me back, so: summer holidays would be the right time :wink:

According to your profile you've never made an amv. Yet your starting a mep?

I assume that, if he's not an utter dumbass, he knows some technical stuff that allows him to coordinate (moreover, he actually edited a lot, but didn't upload anything so far).
to proof my trust, maybe you could submit your guidelines in terms of format, quality, framerate and all the jazz?

O yea sorry I forgot to post the concept of this mep :lol:
well consider the bands music is always about pain, lost, and despair the mep is going to be about that, so that means the amv haves to have that touch :wink:.

Well this is a interest gauge but if you guys want to know the specs I would need the segments in either huffyuv YUY 2 color or high bitrate xvid codec (I'll go with huffy, the files come out crispy clean ^_^).
Resolution would be 720x480, if the original source is a 16:9 letterbox it and last but not least the framerate will be 23.976 :wink:.
O yea this is a given but I'll still say it, the quality needs to be dvd quality :roll:.

guidelines are okay with me, firstly I'm in and secondly, gimme time ^^

anyways, if we don't make amvs for the new album merely, could you hand out some samples for what they did before (because here in europe it's difficult to find material unless you import o_O)

Well I need more people to join to give a official beta deadline and the final deadline, but I would say that the beta deadline may be the 1st of August. That would give enough people time to edit plus summer vacation is the time everyone has to edit :wink:. Each person can grab 1 or 2 segments, but like all meps, animes can not be use more then once. They are 17 spaces in the project. Here is the tracklist of what I got so far:

Intro: Cage [00:00 - 00:31]
Seg 1: Cage [00:31 - 01:17]
Seg 2: Yokan [01:18 - 01:58]
Seg 3: Raison D'etre [01:59 - 02:47]
Seg 4: FILTH [02:48 - 03:26]
Seg 5: gyakujou tannou keloid milk [03:27 - 04:11]
Seg 6: The Domestic F**ker Family [04:12 - 04:40]
Seg 7: Hydra [04:41 - 05:08]
Seg 8: Umbrella [04:41 - 05:54]
Seg 9: Obscure [05:55 - 06:39]
Seg 10: Kasumi [06:40 - 07:26]
Seg 11: Drain Away [07:27 - 08:08]
Seg 12: Child Prey [08:09 - 08:47]
Seg 13: -Saku- [08:48 - 09:37]
Seg 14: Machiavellism [09:38 - 10:24]
Seg 15: C [10:25 - 11:08]
Seg 16: Dead Tree [11:09 - 11:44]
Seg 17: Kodou [11:45 - 12:43]
Outro: The Final (Not included in the mix)


Here is the Mix :wink:
When I start this project I'll provide each cut segment in wav, so this mix is just to listen :D
