GENTLEMEN! I give you AMV Contest 2008!

GENTLEMEN! I give you AMV Contest 2008!

Greetings, Editors and Editrices.

The AMV Contest page has been updated with this year's deadline (ed: December 5th).

You'll also find a handful of tips that you might find helpful in maximizing your video's chances of being screened before The Staring, Judgmental Eyes of your Peers. Little things, sure, but commonly neglected.

Addendum: Email's a bit wonky at the moment, so if you haven't received a response from me regarding AMV-type-things, I can only throw myself upon your infinite patience and generosity, and hope that you believe I'll answer questions as soon as I can actually read them. Or, if you like, you can try asking here; aside from myself, there are also quite a few very AMV-savvy folk about who may be able to help you out.

Kingdom Hearts amv

The rules said to avoid mainstream american stuff like disney, but I was wondering if I could do a Kingdom Hearts amv?
I already made the amv, I just finsihed yesterday. There are no disney characters in my amv, I only used characters that were introduced in the Kingdom Hearts series such as Sora, Namine, and a few organization 13 members. I believe that these characters are owned by Square Enix and not disney.

Looking forward to another

Looking forward to another great contest this year! :)

We should do an editor's

We should do an editor's lunch or something... It'll be nice to see you again, sir!

In a way, the October

In a way, the October deadline was helpful. None of you reprobates ever turn anything in until the week before it's due, so this way, I get half of the entries early. Which is handy if someone's disc is corrupted or their video is otherwise borked, since I can get back to them in time to do something about it.

Its nice to see you

Its nice to see you entering/attending again...always like seeing what you put together.

And I dont think I've ever been called a reprobate before, but I can't deny its true lol...I will hopefully send something your way soon.

Dec 5th!

Whoot! I now have one more month to put together my video. Haha, can't wait to see yah all there. ^_^
