  • Comments: And thus I enter the scene of AMV editing.

    I walked into this project with a vague idea involving a nerdy show and a nerdy singer, and nothing else. In the process of learning premiere, cutting clips, and sequencing, I learned more than I can list here. Not least of which, that [i]Planetes[/i] is a remarkably undynamic show. (Pretty though) I spent 80 hours and reworked 80% of my original ideas. There's undoubtedly still more I could do, but I think it's time to put this to bed.

    When I started 3 months ago, I believed I had a fairly clear and complete idea. Oh man was I wrong. In the course of editing, it turned into a distillation of the entire series, as opposed to focusing on one particular arc. I was mostly able to hold onto the theme of "things go awry" but not as strongly as I'd hoped. In the end, I have to call it good enough for a first attempt, and move on to a new project.

    If you view this and have any sort of opinion, good or bad, please share it with me. Any criticism is a learning opportunity.

    And finally, my thanks to John Bono for beta testing this thing.
