Super Special Happy Halloween Tym [Thing]
So, I had made this video for the film festival Gaia had some time ago, and I've been feeling like maybe I'd make another video like it for Halloween with the help of the members of MADG. :]

First, I need to figure out a song for the video. I'll take suggestions up until October 3rd, then I'll choose the songs I'd find easiest to work with and also songs that just fit with the Halloween feeling. :]
I'll more than likely use a few songs in the video because working with one song can get pretty boring. xD; I'll likely try to keep the video at or under 5 minutes, so I won't be using too many songs.
Also, if I don't have the song, I'll likely be able to find and download it myself, but if that doesn't work out, I'll see if I can find a friend who has a CD with the song, and if that doesn't work I'll end up PMing you and ask you the send it to me via MSN or email [my AIM won't let me send or receive files for some unknown reason (probably because it's an older version)].
And if all else fails, I can just record part of the song with my microphone off of YouTube. xD;
Anyways, once I figure out songs to use, I'll then use another few days or a week to get volunteers who would like to have their avatar appear in the video [either lip-syncing, or just randomly popping up in the background, etc].

Some notes about finding songs for the video.
[x] I'd prefer for songs to be Halloween related, but non-Halloween songs are still just dandy.
[x] NO MUSIC THAT ISN'T IN ENGLISH. That is, unless the song is absolutely "omg wow amazing". As for why I'm not wanting any songs in another language apart from English, well, it is hard as hell to lip-sync to a language I don't speak myself.
[x] No extremely explicit songs. A few "********, "s**t"s and whatnot are fine here and there, but I don't want anything that the video will get flagged for at YouTube.
~*~
Don't even bother requesting these songs:
Shoes
Numa Numa
Anything from Evanescence's album "Fallen"
They've been mentioned too many times, heard too many times, used too many times, and just are downright shitty to me these days.
Just thought I should tell this to everyone so as not to waste post space and time. :]
~*~
Once songs are picked, I'll ask for volunteers as to who would want to have their avatar be in the video.
Do not post asking if you can be in the video until then.
~*~
Important note: Knowing how I can be, the video may or may not be finished before Halloween. So if it isn't, don't bug me about it. P:

Now, as we wait for songs to be picked, you guys are more than welcome to make any suggestions and tips as to what I can do to make the video much more enjoyable than my Film Festival video.
Hell, I'd love if you guys came up with any creative brainstorms for something I can do in the video other than making the avatars lip-sync to music. :]
I would also like to know if there is anyone that would like to help me with getting everything together to make the video.
You'll have to have some kind of image editing program that has a layering system thing [like Photoshop] since that's where most of the work was put into when I made my Film Fest video [that is a crapload of images to deal with, the main reason why the video was so plain].
Also, you'll have to actually know how to use that program.
I'd very much prefer for whoever decides to help me to have MSN messenger.
I'll likely add on to the requirements as times goes on, so keep a look out.

Well, that's about all I can think of to post here for now. P:
PS - I'm terrible at explaining things, so sorry if some of the stuff I posted doesn't make sense. xD;
Just ask me and I'll try to clarify what I said. X_x;
