AMV Hell 7
AMV Hell 7 is scheduled to premiere at the following conventions:
Otakon (Baltimore, MD) - August 8th and 9th at 11:30pm
Animethon (Edmonton, AB, Canada) - August 9th at 7:00pm
Anime Weekend Atlanta (Atlanta, GA) - September 27 at 10:30pm
Anime USA (Washington, DC) - October 4th 1:00am (Friday night) and October 5th at Midnight (Saturday night)

Online release - Saturday, October 4, evening around 6-8pm EST


Original post below
------------------------------
CLOSED. Please do not send more entries.

In commemoration of the 10 year anniversary of AMV Hell, we will be producing a new entry in the series, AMV Hell 7.
As everyone knows, AMV Hell is a work created by the community. We need YOUR funny videos in order to make this a success!
And unfortunately not every video that is submitted can be accepted. From past experience, around 1/4 - 1/3 of the total entries may be accepted.
So, please follow the guidelines below to submit your video and make sure that you have the best chance of getting accepted!

General Guidelines
First of all, what makes an AMV Hell video? Your video should contain anime, and it should be mixed with an excerpt from a song or some other type of audio.
Next, your video should be FUNNY. Laugh out loud funny. The funnier it is, the better chance of getting accepted!
Then next, your video should be SHORT. We don't want full-length AMVs. Just get to the point and show only what is necessary. Videos should generally be shorter than 30 seconds.
Also, try to make your ideas as original as possible. Don't retread old concepts that have been done before in previous amv hells.
Finally, it should go without saying that the videos need to be YOUR OWN. Don't try to submit something that someone else made, and don't copy an idea that you saw elsewhere.

Content Guidelines
The AMV Hell videos are often shown at family-friendly conventions, and while it can be fun to try to be offensive or irreverent, we need to keep things within certain boundaries.
There should not be any nudity that includes nipples or genitalia. Cleavage or butts should be ok. Really sexual stuff might still be off-limits even if it doesn't show anything explicit.
Avoid really intense graphic violence.
Keep the language fairly clean. Don't use audio that has the following words unless it is censored: ****, ****, **** There are some other words that may or may not be allowed based on their usage. Try to use your best judgement.

Technical Guidelines
The project will be produced at 720p HD resolution, 23.976 fps.
Please submit an MP4 or MKV file, with the highest quality settings you can.
Keep the aspect ratio at the correct aspect ratio of your source footage.
If your source footage is standard definition, there is no need to upscale it.
Try to use the highest quality source footage available.
DO NOT submit files in MOV (quicktime) or WMV formats. These can cause issues with the software I use.

More technical stuff for people who understand it:
Its not necessary to submit videos in a lossless or uncompressed format. It just uses up my HD space and takes forever to download. An MP4 file with the video quantizer set to 15 or lower ought to be visually lossless. Please set your audio to the highest bitrate. Uncompressed or FLAC audio can be used if you use an MKV container.
Audio should be stereo, not surround.
If you really want to submit a lossless compressed file, please use either the UT video, Lagarith, or Huffyuv codecs. DO NOT send raw uncompressed video.
If you are using DVD footage, please be sure to IVTC if necessary, and resize to the correct aspect ratio.

How to actually submit a video
First, you need to register an account here on this site. This is purely so we can track your entries. You will not receive spam.
Upload your video to either Dropbox or Google Drive. These are the only 2 approved upload sites.
If you upload to google drive, make sure to actually set the permission so the file can be viewed.
Do not post on youtube or other streaming sites.
Fill out the entry form here, for each video that you submit: (REMOVED)
If you need to upload an alternative or fixed version of an entry, please post a reply on the entry thread rather than making a new entry.
After you fill out the form, it will create a thread in a private area of the forum. We can discuss your entry via this thread. So please check the entries forum (http://www.amvhell.com/forumdisplay.php?16-AMV-Hell-7-Entries) from time to time to see if we have said anything about your video. I recommend subscribing to that part of the forum so you will be notified if we reply to one of your threads.
If for some reason you are unable to register on this site or follow the recommended submission process, we may provide an alternative method via email. More will be mentioned about this later.

Real talk… (sadly,) Zarx isn’t wrong, and apparently Jinzo doesn’t expect much of himself (http://www.amvhell.com/showthread.php?26177-AMV-Hell-The-School-Edition&p=521269#post521269) either. (Read after fourth quote)

Keep at it, Jinzo. Prove us wrong.

========

I noticed the three new links on the left of the home page:


AMV Hell 7 Entries – Accepted
AMV Hell 7 Entries – Maybe
AMV Hell 7 Entries – Rejected

Eliminate the middle link, please.
Don’t even set aside a clip as a “maybe”. If it doesn’t kick ass (or there are any doubts as to whether or not it truly kicks ass), reject the piece of crap.

Be harsh. We don’t want a repeat of the rough cut.

That would be nice but I don't think i have the skill to prove you all and myself wrong.

May is the worst possible time for me. But I'm sure I can squeeze in a submission or two, there it one I've been sitting on for a long time now that I'd really like to get into AMV hell 7.

Plus a few other ideas here and there. Well, I guess we'll see what happens.

I have to deal with the lack of confidence thing with my fiancee all the time. Let's see if the same argument I use on her works here...

For the sake of argument, let's accept your premise that you are horrible, disorganized, and ass retarded. This means you'll be in the absolute worst position to try and make a judgement on what anyone is capable of, especially yourself. If the far more skilled and qualified people say that you are capable of putting out something of quality, who stands the better chance of being right?

that makes sense and is very logical stand point.

I don't have an answer for that.

my lack of self confidence is my biggest weakness in day to day life.

I think the whole point of the "maybe" section is for the clips that have a great joke but bad editing behind it. The "maybe" gives the editor a chance to improve the quality.

at this point someone needs to send jinzo amv tools, give torrent links to the videos he uses [HD!] and then via stream vissualy show on which setting to render/convert or edit specific things [yes its basicaly spoonfeedig, but after my expierience with jinzo i dont see any other options] while holding direct conversation.

Not happy, they all feel TOO long, but Vegas can't seem to handle the files after they've been encoded and I deleted the uncompressed AVI files months ago. Looks like I'll be redoing the whole lot just to cut off about 10 seconds on each -_-

You could try a tool like YAMB or something to see if you can cut out the parts you dont want. It probably can only cut on keyframes though.

Thanks Zarx, actually I just found "My MP4box GUI" can remux the files in seconds and for some reason Vegas can now read the files perfectly.

There doesn't appear to be any visual difference, but I'll go slow and check to make sure I'm not ruining the quality or something stupid.

*EDIT* Wonder if there's any AMV Tennis clips that are good enough to be remade properly for AMVH7.

I have one or two tennis clips that I could probably redo for 7. One of them might even be good enough as is. I'll still see if I can improve it, though.

But
1) to many anime have no good HD remasters
2) to many anime have real 29.97fps in OP, ED, panorama's and some another scenes with smooth camera
3) some rips have variable fps, becouse see point 2

Shuiia
02-13-2014, 10:05 PM
1) to many anime have no good HD remasters
Zarx mentioned before that there is no need for upscaling when your source is in SD. As a matter of fact upscaling SD video might actually make it look worse.


2) to many anime have real 29.97fps in OP, ED, panorama's and some another scenes with smooth camera
the framerate is merely a technicality to ensure smooth animation by allocating a collection of roughly 30 frames per second of film. This is usually the line between having slow playback or animation and having more holes in your film than swiss cheese.


3) some rips have variable fps, becouse see point 2
See point 2, usually that is just a problem with playback and not a loss of the number of allocated frames per second of film.

Not understand you (because my English very bad)/ You say about 29.97 fps is fiction or about 29.97 it is very rare and there is no cause for concern?

Zarxrax
02-14-2014, 01:22 AM
23.976 is the predominant framerate for the VAST majority of anime with the exception of a few things. Its not feasible to use variable framerate for this project and it would be dumb to use a different fps like 29.97. If you need to use footage that is a different framerate, then simply use Assumefps(23.976) in avisynth and you are done.

It was.


The project will be produced at 720p HD resolution, 23.976 fps.

As Zarx and I mentioned before.

If your source footage is standard definition, there is no need to upscale it.

I don't really care about the fps in the source anime, but I like editing clips in 29.97, fast motion is better and looks more fluid.

60fps is too many keyframes to work on, but looks nice in twixtor.

Guess I will have to convert 29.97 to 23.976 and lose some keyframes.

Q: Are submissions using 24fps still acceptable?
My hodgepodge editing process usually results with this.

========

Quotes ahoy, because yes, I actually read these threads:


I think the whole point of the "maybe" section is for the clips that have a great joke but bad editing behind it. The "maybe" gives the editor a chance to improve the quality.
I hope you’re right. The thought of a collection of reserve clips (not quite good enough, not quite bad enough) ready to be used to pad out the final video length makes me nervous.


Just please please PLEASE, do not go over an hour in total time.
I’ll rephrase my original sentiment in the teaser thread:
Don’t pad out the AMV Hell 7 video to feature length just for the hell of it, put only the best stuff in and keep it all killer, no filler.


The language/sex/etc cap **** has got to stop.
We do that, and the zero vids lose all their value. That would break our hearts.


Let me see what I have in the old Tennis folder....
In my infinite arrogance I’m also wondering if any of my old tennis volleys could work…
I might pick out a select few and share them in the self-promotion thread, to test audience reception. If they’re received a little better than Rey Mysterio at the Royal Rumble- then it’s on to remastering.


Well Haar has been showing me these things
This statement almost made me cry.
Haar, when did you become such a sweetheart?


too many anime have no good HD remasters
And who will upscale SD video?
The Barefoot Gen 2 footage in the Challenge #15 (http://youtu.be/-il4y11qY7I?t=46s) was up-scaled from the DVD… didn’t look too bad in my eyes.
Just something for us cavemen who still own DVDs to consider…


Haar should pick about 4 Jojo's Fabulous Adventure clips and send those in as a running joke XD
Haar was really onto something there, that sequence is pure gold. I’m sure I’m in a minority here, but I always enjoyed this running gag from the tennis thread:

In my infinite arrogance I’m also wondering if any of my old tennis volleys could work…
I might pick out a select few and share them in the self-promotion thread, to test audience reception. If they’re received a little better than Rey Mysterio at the Royal Rumble- then it’s on to remastering.

Setting a pretty high standard for yourself, aren't you?

....at least, I'm assuming it's a pretty damn high standard. I haven't actually watched the last Royal Rumble, but I remember Rey Mysterio being pretty damn popular, and I'm not really convinced that's changed even with his long absence. Just look at the Rock....

*edit* hahaha, oh wow. Just watched Rey's Royal Rumble appearance. No love whatsoever xD

They weren't booing him. They were booing the booking decision to have him at 30. They turned on the entire match after that.

Uh oh....with all this talk of fps maybe i shouldn't have been so quick to submit some things. Well, i think it doesn't matter in the long run since my encoding process hasn't drawn complaints since 6.66 at least.

And yet... who will upscale SD video? You?
Yes, the upscaling will happen by me. If you prefer to do it yourself you can.


Q: Are submissions using 24fps still acceptable?
My hodgepodge editing process usually results with this.
Any framerate is acceptable, 23.976 is preferable. Other framerates may result in dropped/duplicate frames.

We haven’t been asked to suggest a song for the opening, so I trust that has already been decided and Zarx is hard at work creating a grandiose opening sequence to rival those seen in Hell 4 and Hell 5.

The predictable thing would be to create an opening exploring the history of hell, starting something like this-

I know I keep going on about it,but out of every AMV I've ever seen accepted in to one of the main AMVHELLS that clips is by far the worst of all the clips.

Oh goodness, I feel like two months is far too short a time if we're expecting a decent length(1-1.5 hours) full of good clips. I don't know about the rest of you, but I used up both my good ideas on the very recent AMV Hell 6 and have not had time to recharge.

I guess I'll put the pedal to the metal and try to submit SOMETHING at least acceptable, but I'll be lucky to come up with anything as good as even my Dumb Ways to Die clip.

Especially if the process of converting MKVs to something usable in Vegas is still as horrendously convoluted as it was the first time around.

Well there has been 130 threads started for AMV Hell Entries, Amv Hell 6.66 had around 260 clips and Zarx said 1/3 - 1/4 clips will be most likely accepted(We will go with the lower estimate). So of the clips submitted in the last 10 days around 33 will be accepted, which means we are 13% done with AMV Hell 7, if it sticks with the 1.5 hour run time. We are well on track to reach our goal.

Yes and no... I think that the people that already turned in all their backlog will slow down, looking at you Haar, but I know there are a lot of people yet to turn in any of their backlog/ working on multiple clips, myself included. There were 91 editors for AMV Hell 6.66 and I doubt we have even reached anywhere close to that number.

Status update.
Close to 300 entries have come in so far. I've ALMOST gotten around to watching all of them.

55 Accepted so far. (About 17 minutes).
91 Maybe.
108 rejected.

If videos keep coming in at a steady rate, this might turn out pretty well.

So I have two stupid questions:

1) Is it acceptable to submit a video with a framerate of 29.97fps, or does it need to be 23.976 since that's what the final product will be? I use adobe premiere elements 8 (which is probably my first mistake, but leaving that aside for the moment) and it CAN export at 23.976, but it creates a minor lip-syncing issue. One which I'm not sure I'd be able to fix since the actual editing timeline is at 29.97 (and doesn't seem to have an alternate setting). It's kind of a minor thing, but it's also kind of a 4-second-long video, so I'd like there to not be any visual snags if possible. Alternatively, is there an easy way to convert from 29.97 to 23.976 with avisynth without screwing everything up? I know it's something you usually do when you're working with DVD footage to get rid of interlacing, but in this case interlacing isn't the issue.

(Is that gibberish? I've been doing video editing for a while but every time I think I know what I'm talking about, I am quickly reminded that I actually don't. To wit, I have no clue why importing 23.796fps footage into Premiere Elements works in the first place, if it always acts as though it's 29.97fps)

2) On a slightly less "I have no idea what I'm doing" note, how should video submissions cut off? Do you guys need the video to go an extra second or something to do the transition, or should video and audio stop all at once?

Thanks in advance! And please excuse my noobishness.

Its always easier for me to cut some extra off from the end of your clip than the other way around.
For some reason I get a lot of entries where the last word is either cut short or missing altogether. Try to avoid cutting things mid-word.

Yeah, I'm actually having an issue there where the last word sort of leads very quickly into a sound effect (such that I'm not sure I can avoid having the sound effect in there a little bit), which I was hoping could be covered by the static sound or something. Do you guys typically ask for revisions from the creator if you like the joke but there's something iffy about the cutting/formatting, or you just think it could be shorter etc.? If so, maybe I'll just send it and see if it's an issue for you or if there's an easy fix...

If audio is a problem then you’ll just have to edit that too.

Fade out and mute the audio before the unwanted sound effect kicks in.

I was toying with my 80s challenge clip being an AMV hell clip at first however I never felt proud enough to submit to 7.
However I am in the midst of making my 4th clip for AMV 7. Of which my 80s challenge clip taught me alot and prepared me for this clip. Which is coming together VERY VERY well. I am very optimistic, if so then it will be my best clip so far.
Then when I work on a few other clips and if they are accepted I will be a 5th of one half.

Which is a very sad situation. I just started editing AMV clips 18 days ago.


PS all older anime which are not used if not often used and varied audio sources that are not used in any past AMV hell. So I will be offering a very different change of pace. Just gotta hope my ideas and skills collab to make the end result good or likeable.

It’s hardly surprising that four of our regular contributors are… contributing. Regardless- 90 clips sounds good.

I doubt these figures will inspire more of us to get editing, but I am curious to hear how many new editors have successfully contributed so far.
Sorry to sound like a broken record here- but if this Hell is being made by essentially the same roster of editors as 6.66… we can only hope that Zarx’s quality control has improved somewhat since Adzman’s “allegory”.

I am dyslexic....is kind of a permanent factor of my brain.


Dyslexia, or developmental reading disorder, is characterized by difficulty with learning to read fluently and with accurate comprehension despite normal or above-average intelligence. This includes difficulty with phonological awareness, phonological decoding, processing speed, orthographic coding, auditory short-term memory, language skills/verbal comprehension, and/or rapid naming.

Dyslexia is the most common learning difficulty and most recognized reading disorder. There are other reading difficulties that are unrelated to dyslexia.

Some see dyslexia as distinct from reading difficulties resulting from other causes, such as a non-neurological deficiency with vision or hearing, or poor or inadequate reading instruction. There are three proposed cognitive subtypes of dyslexia (auditory, visual and attentional), although individual cases of dyslexia are better explained by specific underlying neuropsychological deficits and co-occurring learning difficulties(e.g. an auditory processing disorder, an attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, a visual processing disorder) and co-occurring learning difficulties (e.g. dyscalculia and dysgraphia). Although it is considered to be a receptive language-based learning disability in the research literature, dyslexia also affects one's expressive language skills. Researchers at MIT found that people with dyslexia exhibited impaired voice-recognition abilities. Interestingly, a study published online (and in the July issue of the American Journal of Human Genetics), reported a genetic origin to the disorder, and other learning disabilities, that could help lead to earlier diagnoses and more successful interventions.

So is just make's my day when people pick on me for my less than stellar sentences. I didn't know how to use grammar and punctuations until I was 18 and that was because of one lecturer took me aside in college and spent 15 minutes TEACHING me it.

So maybe sometimes a sentence dosnt make sense to you Chaz. Just deal with it...cos I have to. Its the reason I dont have a job, its the reason I cannot get ON with my life....its a pretty debilitating thing to have.

I am the same person in college took on tutoring a class in Sociology because our polish student teacher was new and her accent threw off the class. I knew it from the year before and tutored them. If it wasnt for that they would never have passed, they praised me....I failed....I failed the same class that I tutored people and if I didnt they would have failed......me thinks there is somthing wrong with me.....OH THATS RIGHT! Dyslexia..........

So you may see....its a bit of a ****ing sore point with me.

I see one major con working against things, but more pros to counter.

Con: Some of the regulars here were noticeably burnt out after trying their damdest to fix amv hell 6. This installment just comes too soon considering the circumstances.

Pro: The regulars here have polished their skills since 6/6.66.

Pro: SSG isn't heading this up so we are getting consistent feedback and not cryptic post alluding to his descent into madness from watching the original hell 6 clips which ****ed everything up to be honest...

Pro: Zarx is seeming stricter this time around which is good. (unless he's scrutinizing my waifu! *eye twitches*)

I have no reason to doubt this will be a quality product, but if it isn't, i'll entertain myself anyway via the thread in which the project was posted.

Hello! I'm...sort of new here, but the series amuses me so much that I thought I'd take a shot at an entry.

I read the rules top to bottom and made two clips to see if they're any good. A friend said there was need of a pause at the start, but I wasn't 100% sure since I saw nothing of the sort in the rules posted here. So one has a pause and the other doesn't. I can fix anything if needed, just lemme know!

I understand that it's kind of last minute, but I really liked the reruns shown at Otakon when I last went, and since a friend of mine made an attempt for 7 I thought I'd give it a shot too. ^ ^;

I've only submitted one clip, due to finals and whatnot. If there's an extension, I'd appreciate it, but I feel like I submitted my best idea anyway, so I won't be torn up.

These openings always sneak up on me. I should visit the site more. I kind of wish there was more fanfare on other forum sites when submissions open up.

I have always wanted to take part in an Amv Hell video, unfortunately this time I don't think I'll have time to create something. Can I submit old videos that I have made? Or does it have to be a newly made?

A little update on some stats:

185 maybe.
233 rejected.
We are coming up on 600 total entries soon.

The Real Inferno has 30 accepted entries. (17% of the total so far)
Sir Fluffykins has 19 accepted. (11% of the total so far)
Combined, these two are almost 30% of the project.

Hi, everyone! I'm very, very new to AMV Hell and I've always wanted to enter for the longest time! But just to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong, it is ok to upload our video to YouTube before it is submitted and (possibly) accepted? I wasn't sure if it was acceptable to showcase the recent video I'm making for this year before turning it in.

^ Sorry if this is a stupid question. :sweatdrop:

It's just too bad that it looks like 7 won't be ready by FanimeCon (Memorial Day weekend). They play AMV Hells every year, and this woulda been awesome to see. Almost like a premier. ^_^

you don't want to go to the premiere at a con. i was at Sakura-con when 6.66 premiered and you couldn't hear jack-****. it was far too crowded and if you weren't in the front half of the room you can't see the screen.

Well the viewing crowds at Fanime do tend to vary. It always depends on the screening time. Also, there's usually not enough people at a time to drown out all the sound. Guess it just turns out that way, what with EVERYTHING else going on at the same time.

Yes. And its encouraged even if you weren't asked to, if you think you can improve the quality or editing in any way.

VasSerMan7
05-10-2014, 08:49 PM
I guess it's impossible to get good automatic conversion from 29.97 to 23.976. I'll have to manually rebuild every clip for lower framerate. It's a pity, time remapping is the only effect I know how to use and the extra frames help a lot in fast audio sources.

Besides the opening and end credits, I’m sure Zarx will be giving this the most thought and effort of the entire project.

You’re not wrong. I would simply suggest that we keep the topic in question confined to the chatbox as Aky mentioned...

…and to these people, I direct you to the second line of my initial post.

There's no discussion or debate to be had by posting your accepted/rejected numbers. You’re just flashing your phallus. Knock it off.

Fair enough. You've done this enough times that I can place a bit more trust on even the "not quite set in stone" release dates. At least you're not saying something like "TOMORROW!!!!!! HOLY SHEET, GUIZ, I'M NOT EVEN TROLLING!!!"
