Also there are a couple of people on the forums that have been given gigs by documentary places, and anime companies because of their AMVs. So it's happened before.

That was one bigass typo. PA, not DP. As if AMVs would make me DIrector of Photography. XDDD

Pssssh, somebody needs to make a thread/and-or web site dedicated to the "connections" AMV-ing can allow you both in the real world AND the fantasy one built up in peoples minds ( however the pay stinks and employment is nil ) ~

1. Developmental Editing Skills

2. Networking Skills

3. Creative/Conceptual Development

4. Awsomeness. Seriously, it's a skill. Google it

There may be thousands or even tens of thousands of people that come here to download videos or to show off the pieces of crap they spent 10 minutes on. They're not really a part of the "community" aspect of this place though.

Yeah, there are very few editors that are awesome and don't post on the forums. Most of the people who don't post on the forums make stuff that isn't exactly worth watching.

Of course that doesn't exempt forum posters from sucking [or not making videos] too. XP

I like tis thread. It has no particular topic, but a few that relate to each other (and to think it was almost a "hi Im new here lol" thread).
