- contests 2004-08-20 16:20:38 I don't know why but I had the urge to enter another contest. I know I can't unless I use the current video. I doubt it would be contest worthy though. Then there is the fact that I couldn't see the reaction of the people watching it. Still...I don't want to limit myself by not believing my videos are not crap. Heck I enjoy them and others do too somewhere out there. Maybe I will submit this one I am working on for the heck of it. It will give me a little more motivation. It's halfway finished anyway. I should go for it but what contest. @_@ Definitely not AWA. I should have had the Emcee Sak one in there. I wasn't thinking though. Oh well. :P
- 2004-08-16 15:48:21 I worked on my amv again today. It is progressing slowly but surely. I kind of liked what I had did with AE. I could have did it with Premiere but it looked kind of funky in there. Then it has stretched the picture out which I did not like at all. That's why I turned to AE. I am a bit concerened of the qualitly though. Maybe I should have tried to deinterlace it. Well I will most likely deinterlace one more time just to be sure. I wonder if that damages my quality. Hmmm...I am still debating whether I want to save that last project for ACen or not. Then my bf wants me to do that Love Hina video. Can't do that until I get the whole set in September. If I wanted to I could finish the one I am doing now tonight. Well that is if I don't sleep and hardly eat or do anything else like play DDR. I don't think I would want to do that though. I'll update again some time.

i was working on the video the other day. it is so damn hard to remove a character from a scene. it is a little bit easier doing it in AE than photoshop though. i think i will have a comparison when the video is done. one scene i did completely with photoshop. the other i did with AE. i have a feeling the one i did with photoshop will actually look a little better than the one i am going to do with AE. that's odd.
i was looking back at my video dates. i shelled out about 6 videos last year. i'm thinking how the heck did i do that? when did i find the time to do all of that? this year i know i will have 3. i will finish this project before the year is over. i will start on the project i want to do this year. there is the chance that i could finish this 4th video this year too. however, that leaves me with the question of what i would submit to ACen. i really don't want to pull another Riceball Love again. that one i should have submitted to ACen but i finished it too early and put it here. looking at some of the responses here it was a mistake that i didn't. well if i did Emcee Sak wouldn't have been seen. that one is my best video yet. (i still like RL better though.)
then there is that video that C wanted me to try out. i would have the chance to do it by september. by that time i would hope that i would be done with the project i am on now. then again, i am getting a bit lazy with this project only working on it when i really feel like it. that doesn't mean i don't think about it.
i've been thinking. i think it is time to enter more contests. i can only go to ACen unfortunately. if i do that i'll probably make a mpeg 2 version for the videos i want to submit anyway. well who knows...i'm graduating this fall/winter maybe i'll be able to go to more cons. well that is if work doesn't get in the way. :P - 2004-08-09 01:26:40 i worked more on my amv today. i got bored again. i got passed the first chorus and had tenchi grow up into manly tenchi. that's good too cause i was really running out of young tenchi footage. i hate when there ain't enough but i really only wanted to use this movie. i can tell now that this video will only be okay. i am grateful that i will have more techniques to do for the big video that is coming after this one. i'm kind of glad i didn't give up on this one. i think i can finish it and it not completely suck. it just something i wanted to see done i suppose.
- 2004-08-05 09:31:30 the last dvd has been shipped. i come to a crossroads now. i will not start on the new project that i want to do until this one is over. that means i either finish it or scrap it. i have never scrapped a project before. i'm sure many have many times. the thing is that i don't hate what i did however i only started this cause i was bored and waiting for my dvds to come. then there is always the question of will i submit this new one to ACen. if so i really should work on it now cause that will just drive me up the wall waiting until almost may of next year. i should try to get some beta testing done for this new one. i haven't really done that before. i really want to plan more with this newer video too. i already had started planning since last school semester. yeah it was right after i got that cd from the office guy. when i heard the song all i thought was it must be continued. rock and a hard place indeed..............
