Alright. Well this is the first time I've ever made a MMV and edited/make something in Sony Vegas Pro 9. Took me 5 hours to make this tiny ass MMV ...............
So~ any tips on how I can improve it and whatnot?
There's also a 5 sec blank near the end 'cause I just kinda gave up

Don't overuse default sony vegas effects, it makes it look kinda... ya know.
Here's a collab part I made from 4 months ago for a friend's collab..

And 3 months ago.

I put wayyy too many layers (around 35 at the end of each project), and used textures even though I mostly hated them.
And downloaded effects. I get them from Neo's Clip Archive.. though I'm not sure what the URL is. It should come up if you google it.
Zoom in on characters, and try to have more happening in each scene. Having long scenes without much moving parts is pretty boring.

I love your 2nd collab. <3 A bit blinding though
And I'll keep that in mind about the zoom and stuff :) You should really make a tutorial 'cause I was creepin' your vids and your mmvs are really good

GunZ videos are usually really good.
Haha, I'm not a big fan of GunZ. But those vids looks pretty good, CoD montages are the best though ;)

Using anything that's a default generally tells viewers you're lazy, but if it looks good, then it works.

CREEP D:
Kidding. But it's actually really hard to make a MMV tutorial. I recommend going over and watching xPwahaha's tutorials on mouth sync and effects, they're really good, especially if you're starting out. And take a few hours to watch her series too, it gets
amazing.

Yeah. But usually you have to mush original effects over the default, since almost all default effects are so widely known you have to twist the settings quite a bit for it to work.

What mix of Apologize did you use? I realize it's the Timbaland mix, but the bass seemed muted, and it was rather off.

Ohh alright. Guess I didn't search hard enough to find her tutorials
