Oh come on, over a week and no one has anything to say?
Sounds like this should be fun.
I look forward to this. But first I have to figure out how to rip hentai clips from dvd's and stuff. ^^
I would assume you have permission from fanime video staff/panels staff [which ever one this falls under] and note that this event will be 18+ [ID required] and all that jazz?
as if anime hell zero was bad or awkward enough, id be surprised what other already strange and weird things ppl have put together.
that and the regular, yaoi, yuri, and hentai nights are already pretty damn hilarious if you asked me.
your gonna have some stiff competition [ and yes i totally meant that lame pun ].

I think that is were your wrong my friend. Hentai just by itself is already funny, but just wait till psychos like me get our hands on it. ^,,,,^
I won't be as offensive as amv hell 0, but I will try to start a laugh riot like never seen before. ( or at least bigger laughs than my stand up at the comedy panel. XD)

I can easily challenge this statement, Jerry.
Last year, Sunday night of hentai night: There is a picture showing my shock and disgust floating around the internets somewhere. IIRC, one of the ID staffers has it, but I'm not completely sure.
Protip to all: stay away from that room on Sunday night of the con; mass groups of ppl had to walk out.

Thats what I referred to during fanime as the exodus of the lightweights. XD
This sounds fun! I'll be coming (no I'm NOT going to make the pun!) to this.

I think I was in the next room over and hearing everyone screams piqued my curiosity... bad idea. There was a reason so many people were leaving.
... This makes me wish that I knew something about manipulating footage.... so awesome...
OMG!! I never thought I would live to see this.:D
I'm not a hentai fan or any of those other stuff but I guess everyone is entittled to their own obsessions I guess.>.>
umm...yeah...i don't know what to say. :D
As long as it keeps kids out of the streets at night then i'm OK with it I guess. :D

Alright, my curiosity is getting the better of me. I realize this is a fairly old post, and I've not been to a Fanimecon in quite some time. Just what is or was "AMV Hell 0"?
As to doing an AMV? Well I could do one, but then, I might get myself banned from FanimeCon. My mind is infinitely evil and somewhat twisted when it comes to such things. Fortunately (for whom I do not know) I'm trying the more tame route of the regular amv contest. ;D
Oh, I do wish you good luck in raising the roof with your amv.

Aww. I want to see AMV Hell 0; I can't use torrents
The idea of a Hentai AMV contest is interesting. I'd definitely go see it, especially for the comedy section. Oh the twisted things people can come up with
This will be most hilarious. I look forward to it.
After much ado about nothing (and losing a crapload of time due to getting married), the rules have finally been posted! See the original post above!
UPDATE:
The website and the submission form are now online. Please feel free to start flooding me with videos.
PLEASE FLOOD ME WITH VIDEOS OR I WILL FEEL LIKE A FAILURE
I'm not entering in this, but there's something I don't understand.
BDSM is allowed, and tentacles are "allowed and encouraged". Why is it exactly that these are okay, but homosexuality isn't? I'm sorry to say, but this comes across as discrimination.
As a bisexual female and a HUGE anime fan, it upsets me that only heterosexual pairings are allowed for this Hentai AMV contest. (For what it's worth, I'm no stranger to hentai, I've translated some Eva doujins before and written a few H-fics.)
The only reason to forbid homosexuality would be to avoid offending people, and easily offended people wouldn't be watching hentai music videos anyway....
Reminder: Only 16 days remain until the all submissions must be received! You can't win if you don't play!
If you have submitted and haven't heard from me, please contact me either on the forum or at
[email protected].
Sailor Star Dust: If you want to know more about why the rules are as they are, feel free to email me at the above address.
Final reminder: less than a week before the submission deadline!
So is the contest on again for 2011? My friends and I had no idea there even WAS an HMV contest.
And with regards to the rules, if it's a female... let's just say "organism" using tentacles on a female would that be okay.
I admit, I had no idea this was on either. Now quite a number do, so I expect turn out will be better next year.
Also, can you post a list of the Hentai AMV's you did play after the contest and possibly where we could get those?
I just wish I would have figured out alot of editing techniques way before fanime rolled around.
Woah, hadn't noticed the responses to this thread. Let me answer as best I can:
2011: Hopefully, FanimeCon willing, the HMVs will be back.
Rules: I've learned my lesson and I'm unwilling to discuss the rules in a public forum. I'll let you know once I know anything.
2010: We only had one entry :( - That being said, there were still prizes and the sole entry got a $50 gift card to iTunes and a Cthulhu plush toy. 80% of success is just showing up. I also need to work on advertising the contest better.
2010 Playlist: Unfortunately, I suffered a tragic loss of data on my laptop and I'm still trying to find my backups of the playlist. Once I find the information I'll post it here.
Ow >"< i want to see this mv but i dont have torent just use idm =((
Mah speed when download by torent just 10kb/ s and idm is 400kb/s >"< thats too bad
Anyway this sound so funny :X
I luv it :X
The idea of a Hentai Music Video contest is really interesting.... but i am look forward or what next... to it!!!!!!
Hopefully this gets renewed for 2011, sounds like it was a fun event!
