Opening and/or commercial videos for your VNs

[Mole-chan]

Whoa, the Dote Up a Cat one looks really good. *w*

X'D I'd love to take you up on your offer, but both VN's I'm planning are in development hell. So I really have no resources to give you, nor the promise that anyone will actually see your wonderful work.

I will definitely keep you in mind though, if either of them are finished.

General Discussion is probably the most appropriate for talking about various software. If you're discussing making videos for VNs, Game Makers' Corner also works.

arigato!

Hey gang, just a quick reminder to stay on topic. If you want to discuss video editing software (a worthy cause, and something that also interests me), it's probably best to start a new thread and keep this one for people interested in Fawn's offer to make videos.

Thanks Sake ^^ Anywho, I have a couple of projects already! I'm very excited to be working on them. However I can definently take more to put on my to do list :3

Well, i can make the OP by myself using : Sony Vegas 8.0

But i used "Arrival Of Tears" by Ayane, and some people says it will be better if i use original song,
do u have any idea how to solve this.

BTW here is my op :

What do you mean "how to solve it"? xD; find some original music. Otherwise the video work is pretty good. I used to use sony vegas too, but the laptop I had it on died. Pinnacle is a lot easier to use anyhow, though it's not capable of as much. (but hey, I mean, it's pretty damn good for being only 100 bucks.)

Huh? This seems like a massive stretch. I think it's natural that a thread about someone doing video editing would hit interest in the software used.

I think the problem is that it turned from "this is what I use to make my videos" (on Fawn's side) to a random discussion on video editing software in general that wasn't going anywhere. It was just two people exchanging one-sentence posts back and forth on a topic only semi-related to the thread topic; once the discussion turns into a chat between two people, it's better to take it to PMs.

So, to get back on topic...

Without the complicated animation in that of course lol... I can't exactly animate that well ^^; All you'd have to do is make the cutouts for me (it'd be a pain to have to filter every single one) But I can move it across the screen and stuff easily.

Haha, yeah, I meant without the animation. After all, this isn't anime! xP
And yes, I was planning on making the cutouts for you, probably a black one and a white one for each character (so you can mix them as you choose).

I do have Sony Vegas...I suppose I should learn how to use it so I can make my own videos. >.>

[Fawn]

Yeah that could work well :3

Well, vegas isn't really a walk in the park- actually it's pretty frustrating xD and if your graphics card isn't amazing, it tends to freeze alot. However you CAN do those more complicated animations, they just aren't as smooth-looking. The problem is that you have to have EXACT numbers for the movements, (Like to move a picture you have to type in an exact x and y value of where you want it to go, and it's not that easy to see how it will come out) though, since you're good at coding I don't doubt your math skills in that area xD

[RPGNoZero]

Well, i used to use vegas alot, and i can't use adobe premiere and after effect, even though i have it.

By "how to solve this" thing, i want to ask if u make animation what will u use for the song, i just can't sing... so i don't know how to solve it if i have to use original song, am i supposed to use background song only?

[broken_angel]

There are people in this forum who are willing to do vocals for intros if you have a song composed for them already. Coincidentally, there are also plenty of music composers on this forum. C: Just post a thread in the Recruitment forum (or just search the Skill Development forum...or whatever it is). That's if you want a completely original song.

I think the issue, though, is that your intro song is the theme song for a well-known something or other. You need to find one that isn't copyrighted. Look for music released under a Creative Commons License. If you haven't checked it already, the OELVN Wiki has some sites listed to find music.

I updated the first post, please take a look before posting.

Speaking of music, I forgot to mention I can actually generate music through my program, though it might not be exactly what you want It's still pretty good though.

Please read the front post again. I'm not answering random questions like that, this is a thread for people who want my services, I'm not google.

sorry again

It's alright, just remember forums threads are places where you talk about a specific subject. Posts should be entire thoughts most of the time, especially in a development forum like this when you're trying to get work done.
