Huh. The org had rules?
2002-12-15 15:48:29
Did I say 675 frames? I meant 695. ((dancd dancd Revolution was meant to be Dance Dance Revolution)).
I am really, REALLY getting fed up with Premiere. It must have some type of flaw or something. I tell it for still pictures to be "40 frames long" which would mean the duration would be .4 of a second. Premiere makes it one second and some odd miliseconds. Premiere is fine up until you tell it to do "30 frames" for a duration. 1-29 is fine, but when you tell it 30 and up, it all just gets screwed up. I am ready to pull out all my hair because of this. If, IF I put this AMV up((If I ever get it DONE)) I am going to SCREAM if they don't give me ATLEAST a "9" in effort. I can understand not having a "10" because I didn't take the time to take the Nick bug out of the screencaps, believe me, I tried, it just wasn't working. SO I can understand not having a "10". But I BETTER get a "9" If I get "1"'s in EVERYTHING else, I don't care!! I NEED that "9" in Effort!!! NEED!!
-------------------
That's enough for the current project. Now for the current event. I was shifting through the site when I saw "Rules Updated" Wow. I never knew the org had rules. I mean, official rules. I just thought "No spamming, no flaming, no AMVs that show hatred for anything" was it. Wow. Phade made an actual list. I didn't know that. Seriously!
((Considering I've already broken one and, according to the rules, should be banned))
Phade should really make a link or something on the home/members page that says "READ THE RULES" In really big letters so people don't miss it. Like I apparently did. Did you know you're not supposed to use downloaded footage for AMVs?? At ALL?? Well, that says "Hoo HAW! SQ's FFIX and Yu-Gi-Oh! Vid are DOOOMED!!" Let's all sing the "Doom Song"
"Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom . . . . "
6 months later. . . .
"Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom Doom"
Um, anyway. . . I hope you all know that I wasn't going to sit on my ass and play FFIX for another month to just get all the FMVs, right?? What INSANE person would do that??? You better KNOW I'd download it. As for Yu-Gi-Oh!, I just didn't know how to hook up the VCR to the dish, so I was incapible of getting my own footage at the time. I'm not home for any of the reruns, so that gives the idea of why I needed d/led footage. You know, the quality's pretty good if you download from the right people. I mean, not that I ENCOURAGE it, I say "Don't do it if you don't have to" And I. . . Well, I'm not paying an estimated around 4 dollar tab to go rent a DVD where I only need two episodes. Which arn't even on the same DVD. So double that price. I'm not a particularly great fan of Yu-Gi-Oh!, so that series is one of the few DVDs I won't go out and buy for me because it's just one of those things where you say to yourself "Why am I buying this if I'm only going to watch it once?"
Not like I don't have 40 anime DVDs in my collection or anything. . .
Hey! I've watched them all atleast. . . Twice. See! Every one! Atleast Twice! Maybe even thrice! I don't know, I DO have a lot of DVDs.

Ahem, excuse me while I go off to view the guides, see if they can help me with my Premiere problem. . .

I Now Know the TRUE Meaning of a "10" in Effort
2002-12-14 14:40:48
Okie dokie. I've been off the interent for a few days because I FINALLY got the Yu-Gi-Oh! Stuff AND figured out the problem With WinTV!
Okay, the Problem with WinTV is that it will ONLY work with Windows 98. Piece of crap won't work with Windows XP Professional. -kicks it- I'll have to either reinstall it temporarily on my comp, or "borrow" someone else's computer for about a month.
As for how Yu-Gi-Oh!'s coming, I'm about 75% done. I now only have to piece all the stupid frames fogether because I put text in it. I will NEVER EVER put text in AMVs again. I have 675 frames to piece together because premiere made each one 3 seconds long. Curse it!
As for BeyBlade, I cannot find ANYTHING. So I'm just going to hand it to whoever wants it. The idea was this: That episode where Tyson's Grandpa trains the Beybladers with Shinais(Bamboo sword-thingy) to Dub I Dub from Dancd Dancd Revolution. I was just going to have them all bonking eachother. It would've been a parody on the "Puppetpals" you know, those little puppets who all they do is bop each other on the head. Anyway, it'll be another few weeks till Yu-Gi-Oh!'s done. -
US Voice Actors do not sing well
2002-12-11 18:55:28
After getting up off my ass and looking for those episode numbers, I managed to find the numbers and begin downloading them for Yu-Gi-Oh!(I also heard a few songs from the soundtrack. Let me tell you-- US Voice Actors sing horribly) One was really cool though. Atleast I liked it. It was the guy who voiced Kaiba and was singing about some duel. It's kind of upbeat, great for an AMV. If I can find a fitting anime(that isn't Yu-Gi-Oh!) I'll make an AMV to it. However, I'm about willing myself to die after hearing Pegasus Voice actor sing. . . Good god man. And people ACTUALLY buy the crap. I want to rip my ears off.
Anyway, Once the download is complete I'll begin my sidequest. And maybe, just maybe, I can find some Beyblade episodes. I thought I found out the number, but I guess not. ><;; It doesn't really matter, anyway. There arn't any downloads available for Beyblade. I'm going to have to go out and rent it. Blarrrg.
As for the going on my Shadow Hearts AMV, I'm still at the "Insert Tape here and press play" stage. Stupid Microsoft.(see below entry). -
If cars were made by Microsoft, people would press "Start" to stop the car, and the cars would simultaniously stop working, but people would just accept it as normal.
2002-12-11 17:10:54
Well, I updated windows, but I still have the "Simultaneously restarting" problem when I open up WinTV and try to record Shadow Hearts. Erg. Darn that Microsoft! Kill it!! -pokes it with a stick- In the meantime, I'm still looking for the episode numbers for "Yu-Gi-Oh!" and "BeyB;ade". I have all the music and everything else ready. I really want to work on my SHadow Hearts baby, though. I'm sure that if I ever get it done, I'm going to send it into a contest or something. Maybe I'll do that when I remaster my "Pills" vid. Everyone seemed to like that.
Ah well. I have a great idea for an Escaflowne OVA and Christina Aguilara vid but I gave that to Tamashii(Dark Studios) He says that if he gets free time he'll do it. Good luck Tamashii!
Right now I'm goin gto fin dout those stupid episode numbers and start one of those vids. I swear it!!

Help is a good thing. Even when what you explain to someone ends up not working, atleast you tried.

Other then the fact that I think I'm recovering from the insults handed back at me right and left, and that a really good majority hate me because of what I did yesterday(although a small minority kind of supported me. Kind of) I had a pretty good day.
I don't want to talk about it. If you want to, stop reading this Journal and go watch the two threads that have basically documented everyone's view of my life.
Were this, say, a journal that no one would read and I could hide it in a Teddybear, THEN I'd go cuss out the journal and blame it for all my problems. But I can't. They're my problems, I made them, and I need to deal with it.
Around me and on the Internet, I fair number of people think I'm too intelligent and mature for my own good at this age. And equal number of people say I I'm as dumb as a rock and act like an 8 year old. It really depends on where you catch me, what mood I'm in, and whether I've taken my Prozac or not.((If you did not catch it in some odd Journal entry before, I'm 19))
-------------
I have WinTV, and have caught every FMV from Shadow Hearts on tape except one(damn those Hard bosses before FMVs!! -shakes fist).
So, I put the tape in the VCR, start up WinTV, and what happens? My Computer simultaneously restarts. Fun. Here my utter cries of joy. It happens every time for the past two weeks. I'm only saying something now. (Yippee). My Professional CPU Fixer bro says I either need an update of WinTV or Windows. But you can tell his utterly confused with this problem. There's no update for WinTV, but there are tons for Windows. Haven't updated it yet.(Lazy me).
Meanwhile, in the dark abyss of two o'clock in the morning, I get this great idea for an AMV.(Yet another sidequest!) I'm trying to find the episode number for Yu-Gi-Oh! for this. It's a great serious character profile idea, and no, it's not about Yugi. (It's wierd how these new ideas involve one game almost never heard of, and two cheap dubs on ABC Family and Kids' WB).
Both these ideas(Yu-Gi-Oh! and BayBlade) Are truly original, and I bet if you haven't banned me from your presence you'll like them. Espiecially if you liked "Pills".
((I bet people have ignored my existence but like my AMVs.))
I'm still trying to get those damned Episode Numbers. Everything else is already planned, timed, and cooridinated in my head.
This is probably the reason why most my vids are done so fast. I have a fat head.(Bwhahaha! I'm a fathead!). I have it all set up in my head, and when I get to Premiere or WMM, it all just a matter of copy and paste. Woo. I love me. Even if I hate me sometimes.
I need help.
