Succession...?

Post by JesseD » Tue Sep 25, 2007 12:02 pm

As of now I'm working on an AMV, no need to know what, and after watching Succession 3 times a day (for 8 months) I still go 'wow' at how good the footage looks. So I sat down one day for about 3 hours deciding whether it was Dragon Box footage or some great AVS-ing.

After researching that the Dragon Box singles for the episodes used were released in June 2006 and the credits say 'Completed: July 2006', I thought that 1 month is a far too short amount of time to make an AMV this good. Since you say you own the Dragon Box singles, I deduced that you don't own the Dragon Boxes themselves(except for a certain one :lol: ).

And I've noticed that on some AMVs the footages looks similar. Namely 'Trunks Dies AMV'. So my qustion is thus: did you use Dragon Box footage or some AVS script that has eluded me for eternity? If the latter, than I beg you to share it, if the former, sorry for wasting your time.

Unfortunately, I didn't save the scripts I was using. Kinda dumb of me. While I definitely own a few of the R2 singles, I don't own them all... and that's where friends with other discs with footage I need come in handy :P.

But yeah. Scripted R2s. I'll come up with another bad-ass script in the future when I do another video I have planned. The simple fact that they're progressive helps soooooo much (not having to worry about deinterlacing, IVTC-ing, etc.).

Now that is a big releif. My script I'm using now is this and it sucks:

Mpeg2Source("F:\DragonBall Z\DBZ Episode 176.d2v",ipp=true,cpu=4)
Telecide(Order=1,Guide=2)
TomsMoComp(1,5,1)
#Deen("a2d",5)
#FluxSmoothST(7,7)
#FastLineDarken()
#ColorYUV(gain_u=25)
#Tweak(Sat=1.2)
Crop(12,6,-12,-2)
LanczosResize(720,480)
AssumeFPS(29.97)
ConvertToRGB32()

That is probably the worst script in history, but it works for my PAL bastards. I can't wait for your bad-ass script. Scripted R2's explains everything, I sort of guessed that you used them. I just had to make sure.
