It's a crazy process to go through...

In general, I download the cutscenes (if I need to; I have about over half the collection already). Though, I'm dying for a copy of the rest of TWTNW! A lot of my AMVs are crappy because I lack those scenes... DX

Anyway, once I download them, I import them into Windows Movie Maker (takes quite a while to do every one of them, but once done, I'm set for whenever I need them).

I also import the music or anything else I'll need... And I set that down in the Timeline wherever I see fit... Whether it runs with the beginning intro, afterwards, or (in this one) a little delay in the AMV. Whenever it's necessary (which is most of the time), I also mute the cutscene's audio (very important!), or else it'll run real awkward...

The credits and into are rather easy to do... Just type in what you need and set the animation to how you want it. For me, I tend to do a variety of ways... LOL! The "SAI @ dA" watermark I have is actually a double import I did... I imported the original AMV (what you'd see on YouTube) and simply place in the watermark throughout the AMV... This prevents other people from stealing and uploading onto YouTube to have as theirs... <.<;;;

Exporting the movie, IMO, is actually the most boring... X3 On average, it takes around 10-15 minutes to make it to the movie file suitable for uploading on the Internet. Then it's up for one final overview check and if it's good enough, I upload it on YouTube.

And that's how I make my videos... ^.^ hehee Takes quite a bit of practice; personally, I think I've gotten a bit better from this one (this was actually my very first AMV; hence the lack of effects and such). LOL!

If you want, I can make you a more in-depth tutorial on AMV-making...

yeah! That would be great!

It doesn't actually sound that hard... am I right in saying that you get the cut scenes from [link]

I saw it in the credits of other vids

I'll see if I can make one up then. ^.^

It takes a bit of practice to get used to. But once you get it, it's actually pretty fun to mess around with! This proves it... [link] (proof I've gone insane with video making! X3). Though, I wish it was longer... But I do have a lack of quotes, and it was mainly for experimenting with making something with such OOC-ness!

The URL is actually http://kh-vids.net - there's no "co.uk" part to it. And a lot of people use them because by what I've seen, that site is the largest collection of KH-related cutscenes on the Internet. Though, quite a bit of them need to be fixed because some cutscenes are either false-linked or unavailable (offline). <.<;;; And I need some of those scenes too! DX

You bitch! (you know, my jokey thing again...) I- you- can!

Just no. No nonakuroku!

No!

I love it! It shall not be made into a joke! Well you just did... but you know!

LOL! You mean the whole... "A scattered dream that's like a far-off memory./A far-off memory that's like a scattered dream./I want to line the pieces up--/Yours and mine."? That's from the KHII opening (just split in two parts).

Next time? Does my other AkuRoku AMV count? X3 Because You Live... hehee

YOU BITCH!!!!!

YOU MAKE SUCH GOOD AMV'S OF AKUROKU!!!

GAHHHHHH DAMN YOUR TALENTS!!

I CAN'T DO THAT!

I try but it goes wrong!

I wish I could do better to the name of AkuRoku

Oh well I'll just keep trying!

Hmm... maybe I'll use All Good Things by Nelly Furtado... I adore the song so it will really inspire me to try!! :3

Ahh! o.O;;;

*runs and hides from Aku's wrath*

I can't help the way I make AMVs... *nervous chuckle*

My AkuRoku AMVs seem fine, but I really wished I could've done better to my ZemuSaiku one... [link] Gah! Too many repeated scenes and such poor editing... *cries* I felt like I mocked the pairing! NO! I love Xemmy and Saix! *to them* Now kiss... *they look at each other, then make out* X3

And it's kind of a shock to see two of the artists comment on it (and fave it)... Apparently, I used 2 of *Shin-zo and 12 of *Vampyyri (but that was before I knew about them on dA; if I did, I would've asked... hehee ), but at least they liked the AMV. But still, I wanted to make a better one (a lack of cutscenes is bad...). <.<;;;

As for "All Good Things"... Go for it! If you can envision the AMV from it, I bet you can make it. X3 That's how I made most of mine... hehee

I'll give it a shot!

Might be quite short though...

Aww... That's okay! ^.^

Though, if you want it longer, you can still take breaks if you feel that you need to. I've been working on one for almost a couple weeks now, but I'm still dedicated to finishing it completely. X3 LOL!
