Christmas AMV short for Jadd's MEP
2005-11-29 17:31:00
Uggh, what did I get myself into. I have to listen to all this music that I really don't like and come up with something funny to boot! Don't know if I can do comedy - I guess the worst that could happen is that Jadd will just say;
"um, thanks buma, but it ain't funny..."
Bah...
Oh well, can't be all that bad.
I think that I'm using this as an excuse not to start my NG Evangelion AMV for Kawaii Kon 2006. With the deadline in 3 months and I haven't even started on the clips yet... I shudder to think how I am going to get all this stuff done.
buma must strive on pressure...
that and I have my own MEP to do too... it don't seem that my MEP partners don't seem very motivated to do their parts either, however. I'm afraid that this may die a slow death - good idea, but it might just come as too little too late.
bah - humbug :)

so if you don't like the song, you don't like the video?

hmm, I mean, it's not like I hid the song that was used - I stated the band and the title and it wasn't some obscure group either (well, okay it's old school, but not that long ago... at least for me). I mean, does one judge alone on the song, and if you didn't like that the rest of the video is just crap?
i donno, maybe I'm just 'sensitive' or something. -
DGDI1&0? gets its first fan
2005-11-27 13:35:27
well, after being on AMV for like 6 months, I've finally found this journal section. I don't know who reads this stuff, but at least it is a place for me to put my digital thoughts down.
Anyway, got my first 'rave' review for DGDI1&0? today from Rutkiskasca. Most of the time, people will pan my video for the subtitles and I guess I don't blame them. I've had several comments in the past that state the subtitles are way too distracting, but as a newbie editor, it was the only way I could figure out how to get the story across.. What I don't understand is how they can say that as most anime one watches will have subs (especially if they watch fansubs too) - that is unless they watch the dub version (which I must admit that I do at times, especially if the Japanese voice is that high-pitched female 'kawaii' voice that seems to litter the genre).
Rutkiskasca seems to actually get my premise (either that or he actually read the long-ass blurb I wrote for it - I do tend to be long winded) and liked it. Is reaching an audience of a single viewer with the ideas and thoughts that go into an AMV a success? Well, I guess it's a start!
