JOURNAL: MetalWolf (Corey )

  • Second hurdle over 2003-01-09 02:37:47 Well second hurdle is over, I finally found a way to get the clips i wanted from my DVDs without getting just complete static, I hope to finish capturing allt he clips I need from the anime I am using by the end of the week (I still got a dozen more) and start editing and working on the AMV next week. As for donations I will possibly getting what is left of my money that I can spend (I have myself a spending limit) on the donations so people would finally think I am more than a newbie or a guy who doesn't try (neither are ture, I have been doing this for two years yet I still know shit all and i dont know why, the last AMV created I worke don for over 6 months, this one I have been planning/working on since October.)

    I want ot thank Klinky for helping me I bet he felt annoyed that i came back with the same problems. Hopefully I wont have anymore.

    I want to have this AMV done before the Viewers CHoice Awards, hopefully revamp BOOH2 as well for both of them to go on the Viewers CHoice, my chances I know are always gonna be no good because if I failed getting an award from Moobies for BOOH2 I know I wont for viewers choice, but I hope my Fire Porject will. I would at least like to win one award before I quit (which wont be soon I hope).

    Now I will sleep before I start acting crazy (I always seem to acting weird when I am getting tired.) 
  • New Years 2003-01-05 13:05:01 Well I am stilla round after two years of making AMVs.

    Right now I am still capturing clips for my next AMV which I want to finish before the Viewers Choice Awards, but tha tmay not happened so I hope there is a animethon 10 in Edmonton because then I would enter the AMV I am working for it. I can't wait till Animethon 10 because I had a wicked time at Animethon 9 (I was the guy with the jean jacket with all the metal bands on it) I just hope they got better anime shirts there that are my my size.

    AMVs I am definitely working on this year is
    The Fire Project
    Bat Out Of Hell 3
    Sounds Of War 2 Remake

    I have other ideas but I am mostly worring about these three as well as remaking other of my AMVs.

    I am going back into school this semester so I will bakc to being busy again and honestly I feel I am much more better at doing things when I am busy than doing mostly nothing.

    That is mostly all except for the fact that 2003 should kick ass for me musically

    new Meat Loaf, AC/DC, Anthrax, possibly Metallica, Iron Maiden, Jackal, possibly Iced Earth and many more new albums (I can't think of them, my mind is a blure today.).

    As for the donations I a still thinking about how much I should donate, how much I can afford to donate and from the amount needed and the amoutn I am going to give doesn't feel like it will help much. I will try and give a donation but I still have to decide that part. 
  • 2 Years In Making AMVs, year in review 2002-12-22 13:06:26 The fact that most poeple I beleive think of me as just another guy who makes AMVs just for the fact it was a trend. I think being here as long as I have has proven that that is not true. The first year of making AMVs I made a whole lot of AMVs, many of them I am proud of, some I am not so proud of and I will never be ashamed of making around 54 AMVs in one year. But in the year 2002 I started to take insults from many other AMV creators to heart.

    Popndeth saying I don't try and make a good AMV
    Sammy saying I plainly suck

    Here are two creators before I respected for their abilities just dump me full of crap. This year I was destined to get them back making AMVs that are much more better. My first AMV I was making while this was happening was

    Sounds Of War 2: Rush Of Adrenaline - Yet I finished this AMV I will definitely rework on it, it has potential but I didn't have enough clips to make it stand out, only half way through the AMV stands out very much. Once I get my Patlabor TV episodes on DVD for Christmas I will try reworking on it to make Sounds Of War 2 much better.

    Victims Of Moira Syndrome - I made this AMV close to the end of 2001 but the first version of it was ok but I thought it could have been better and I needed a second opinion. Most creators don't even give me the light of day but luckily Rubyeye helped. I chose him because I love his works and I try to make AMVs much like his style but staying true to my own he was responsible for getting me into Queensryche, Kamelot, and Nightwish. I sent it in to him. He said I should dump the project and he gave me the pros and cons. I wasn't and still ain't the type to give up on something. I sparked a few new ideas and went on to revamp Victims Of Moira Syndrome. I made it a better AMV. It is mostly everything I wanted it too be.

    After making this AMV around February I was alreayd int he midst a few months before planing for BOOH2, I was getting the clips and I planing a layout and everything for it. I took 3 months off AMV working while I planned and captured Ryoga clips then. By June I had everything ready but I felt that I need a bit of a warm up.

    A Secret Place - I made this AMV mostly as a warm up and in the end it turned out to be an alright AMV, certainly not the best but I thought it wasn't bad.

    remake of Bat Out Of Hell 1 - When I look back at the AMV I love it but I felt that I can do so much more with it now that I have Adobe Premeir, and I did I remade the AMV and the AMV stands out even mor ein my opinion that it did before.

    Remakes of Gendou The Asshole, Amazing Auska, Shinji's Cryin' - I remade all of these AMVs, sort in a quick fashion on the Gendou one I took much thought of. The others were just clean up remakes which were just making the cuts cleaner. Gendou The Asshole remake looks much better and is everything it would have been when I firs tmade it and more.

    Bat Out Of Hell 2 - The AMV no one has seen mostly in this place, one AMV I want to show everyone but the video quality literally blows since mos tof my sources came from realplayer footage since I am poor man when it comes to buying DVDs of anime (It costs 50 fucking dollars a anime DVD here, just for 3 episodes or so). I spent the rest of June till end of July editing this video, doing everything I wanted to do with this AMV, there were scenes I wanted to add but they wer enot possible to get at the time. I wanted to add scenes from Season 7 with the blossom test, as well as the time he learns his depression blast move and so on but I couldn't get ahold of the realplayer versions of it so I just did as much as I could with what I had. Int he end I made an AMV that it seems that everyone who has seen in (Except Shadow, he doesn't like softy music or vidoes he loves action only) and said it is the greatest AMV I ever made and I agree with them. After Christmas when I get the episodes I wanted on DVD, I will try and make the picture quality the best I can make it as well as add the S7 scenes in the places that needed it the most. I have a feeling I wont finish this till the end of the Award Ceremony. Mos tpeople would beleive this AMV to be too damn long (its 13 minutes long), well I don't care if it is. I made this AMV for myself and for anyone who beleives Ryoga is perfect for Akane. If anyone doesn't think I tried making BOOH2 a good AMV then they are an asshole because I really tried my hardest to make that AMV as best as I could make it.

    2003 possible Projects

    Fire Project - THis is confirmed so far, after christmas Iw ould have my hands full of new footage to use for my AMV which I plan would break records. Hopefully the award ceremony don't start till end of winter so I can start working on this AMV in January. I am still not half done getting all the clips for it since this project will constitute for alot of anime titles. I plan on putting this one up for alot of contests.

    BOOH3 - Most likely the final one unless there is a new MEat Loaf album coming out that has a long dealing with a mans search for love or so. That is what all the BOOH series for me is about how each man deals with longing for love, one tends to leave the woman when she realizes she loves him just to fact to prove it too her, the second was one loving a woman so much that he couldn't tell anything about himself to her in fear that she may not like him for it which is why I chose the song "Anything for love but I wont do that". The 3rd will be more of proving ones love to a woman who seems to love another man and guy is always left having to prove himself over and over till he dies and then the woman finally understands (much like BOOH1 but in 3 there is different consequences if you know the show) it is "I'd Lie For You And Thats The Truth" by Meat Loaf for Orsen and Sheris of Record Of Lodoss War. I am trying to base this AMV as much from the original music video for the song, about Meat Loaf proving to the girl over a Indiana Jones type.

    Tribute To The Beast - Shut Your Mouth by Motorhead - WWE Smackdown 4 my character in the game
    Swords - I Am The Sword by Motorhead - Various anime
    remake of SOunds Of War 2 AMV
    Revamp of Vampires AMV
    Sounds Of War 3: War Ensamble - War Ensamble by Slayer - Various
    Times Weapon - Tomorrow Never Dies by Sheryl Crow - Masami Generator Gawl
    She Fuckin' Hates Me by Puddle Of Mud - Ranma and Akane
    Criminal by Fiona Apple - Kare Kano
    Margaritavile by Jimmy BUffet - Cowboy Bebop
    The World Is Not Enough by Garbage - Gendou Ikari
    Give Into Me by Micheal Jackson - Gale (Project A-ko)

    These are ideas not confirmed except Fire Project and BOOH3. This doesn't mean I am doing all these AMVs this year these are only ideas I have ben having hanging around. 
  • My take on Golden Dounut 2002-12-18 14:10:02 I think it is a good plan, even though I think Phade is putting too much hope in the people here. So what do I think?

    I live in Canadian where our dollar is mostly crap compared to Americas. I don't have a very well pay job and I one get a few hours a day in each month since I am in school for half the day. I guess the way I think he says it if everyone pays high amounts it could pay for the ones who don't pay or so. Well if I was a slacker ass leecher I would enjoy this, I feel that if I wanted a host I would pay my own way in most ways the best I can. All I could give if monthly,bimonthly or yearly is around 50 dollars USD which is around 80 CND funds. I can garuntee you I wont be donating 1200 USD per year. I have hard time enough trying to save up my money for my goals as it is (I am trying to save 14 000 dollars for college and wrestling school, I am at 4000 right now). But around 50 dollars USD around whatever month I might do it depends on wha tmy financial status is by Christmas.

    Everyone knows how many videos I have and I don't think its fair to put in all my AMVs in this, it wouldn't be all since many of my AMVs have nudity and such. Which is a bummer for my since one video I would like to host was Wet Obession (no not X In Sex). As for excessive violence, I don't think any of my videos have excessive violence, only one of my AMVs I am planing maybe sometime in 2003 would fit in this. What AMVs would i host if I did go around with this, if I could give 50 dollars USD per month that should pay for 15 or 16 AMVs. Mos tlikely only half of it for most of the time since I plan on remaking some of my AMVs that I thought was veryg ood but could be better so when people see them again they would have all changed and be much better. Video I know i would host would be

    Bat Out Of Hell 1(remade) and 2
    Victims Of Moira Syndrome (remade)
    Gendou The Asshole (remade)
    Shinji's Cryin' (Remade)
    Amazing Auska (remade)
    Humans Being
    Boy Named Sue
    Moto Psycho
    One Last Memory
    Enter Orsen (I will remake it before I put it out)
    Vampires (after a possible revision while adding new anime to it)
    2 Minutes To Epyon (after remaking) it
    Golden Oil
    Voodoo

    All if uploaded the way they are would be 552 MB. Half of them ont he list wouldn't be hosted or more. I am currently working on a AMV I want to finish before the AMV Viewers CHoice Awards as well as hosted. I want it too be amazing. So if ther eis one AMV right now I wanted hosted its the fir eproject when I get it done as well as maybe BOOH2 after I revamp the picture quality and add things should have been put in before I made it but couldn't have.

    So my chances of going in wiht this is in limbo but good chance it all depends to me what happens after christmas.
     
  • Always down but never out, only 13 days till 2 year anniversary 2002-12-12 02:16:17 Well I lost the contest, Ibet Moobies thought of my AMVs as crap yet I put alot of hear tinto Bat Out Of Hell 2, I worked that AMV for most of this year but hey I guess everyone else deserved it better than me, they always do. So what have I been doing since i finished BOOH2, planning fo rmy next AMV tha tmaybe bigger thanBOOH2, I am not saying much about it I am just naming it The "Fire" Project, it will include close to 124 anime titles in the AMV, beleive me or not but that is what I am planing on doing, I haven't start editing since i have only got 19 of the 124 titles already captured, I just need to find the patience to get the other.s I have alot of them at home since I own alot of anime. When would I start video editing work on this AMV, possible around the end of December. I want to get it done before the Viewers Choice Awards of 2003 because I plan on putting it in and trying to promote it as much as I can. Afte ri finish that I will revamp BOOH2 with clips that were supposed to be in the BOOh2 but I couldn't find it on Kazaa so I bought it on DVD since it came out December 10th it should ge there before christmas. Mos tpeople have forgotten me and th eones who do know me I guess still think of me no better than the people who make Dragon Ball Z AMVs with Linkin Park music. I don't give a shit, becaus ein 13 days it would mark that I have been making AMVs for 2 years, whether anyone likes it or not I am not giving up someday I will make a legendary AMV eithe rit be the Fire Project or something else one muwhahaha! Now that I got tha tout of my system I am going back to work and getting myself a soda.
