Crop off the subs, get better quality footage, remove the black borders around the footage and you've got yourself an AMV equivalent of crack cocanine. Totally legal crack cocaine. :up:

In all seriousness, it was very well edited and put together, seven minutes perhaps a little long for the standard AMV. Keep at it, and welcome to the wonderful world of AMV editing. :sweat:

How, The Quality WAS good before the render (one of the reasons I am very un-impressed with the highly Praised Sony Vegas Pro). and again. How?

And Actually I have about 4 other videos I just took about a years break. Check out my profile. I've been told my first one is my best one

It doesn't matter what program you have, if you don't know how to clean and encode your footage properly, you're going to end up with crap. If your footage was substantially better than what you put out, then some settings were off when you were encoding it. You need to set up your projects, don't use presets.

Edit: just watched it, 320x240? Really?

Like code said though, editing actually wasn't that bad.

If you actually want to know, and are willing to spend a fair amount of time learning, read This technical guide once or twice.

If you just want some quicke directions on how to export something decent from vegas, post a topic in the help forum with more specifics about what settings you're using, and hope someone there's willing to help out.

I don't like to critique in public is all lol. I left an op explaining my thoughts on one of your videos. Maybe I'll get to your first one later.
