AMV 101 for Dummies!!! (a noob tutorial)

[Eclipse]

Try converting the video to another format

you see....WMM is FULL of bugs. it's really buggy o_O

[Cloudy_Card]

I'm bad with technology...how would I go about converting them to other file types sir?

Or, what other type of movie editer/maker would you suggest?

[Eclipse]

hmmmm....you could also try renaming the file

you see sometimes WMM won't import a video if it has a file name that is like"346%_SS3IRK__#__23LRK"

you need to keep it simple like videotrailer or something like that or WMM can have bugs importing the file

if not, try downloading this program: http://www.download.com/Stoik-Video-...ml?tag=lst-0-4

it's a converter, see if that works

[Cloudy_Card]

Bleh, none of that works. Makes me wish I my iBook didn't break down, I miss iMovie.

Any other movie making programs you suggest?

^ Vegas. Vegas ftw <3

but it's not free....you could probably get a trial.

or buy it

or get it otherways *cough*illegaly*cough*

[Cloudy_Card]

...hmm, Vegas. I'll check out the trial. Thanks a lot!

[Eclipse]

^ vegas = awesomeness. WAY better than WMM

Sony Vegas is like what me and chaywa and a lot of other AMV makers use, it's much more precise, has effects and stuff, and is just hawt.

try it out =)

Nice guide man. I will read it thoroughly when I get home. This sounds fun :-)

[Steve]

Awesome tut. I've always wanted to make AMV's. I'll post it when I'm done.

[Eclipse]

No prob. i'd love to see some of ya'lls work ^_^

[Ric]

[Gamergirl89]

[Souretsu Gear]

I always wanted to try to make a video

[quitejaded]

Hey, great!

I just have a few questions.

1) The fading thing isn't working for me.
2) Is there a way I can leave a black or blank clip inbetween actual clips?

[FortuneCookie]

I made a short Sakura/Sasuke video, more like a slideshow.

Looks kinda boring but it was fun to try. I'll start using real scenes later this week.
