why is it that people take an anime and use really long clips to make an amv? they will use 1 to 2 full minutes of continual footage to make an amv and do that mybe 2 or 3 times depending on the length of the song. is it just me? or do you guys see what i mean? there's little thought, or time, or talent involved when making an "AMV" in this fashion.
and for some reason the person that makes their AMVs in this fashion seem to think it works. this is just my opinion, but i believe that a person should use various clips (no more than 20 seconds of contiguous footage) to create their AMV. this process involves time, talent and dedication. this also sets apart the wannabes from the gonnabes. it's just irritating seeing so many of us, who work our butts off, making truly unique and spirited AMVs getting overlooked by some talentless "creator" piecing together 3 minutes straight from the dvd with a song running in the background.

put some soul into your AMVs, people! (and i don't mean Kool and the Gang.)

and i'm not sorry if i offended anyone. but you should know i'm not trying to offend anyone.
