That's cool. I was just thinking along the lines of ... Crys hadn't touched vidding software before "Poker Face", apparently, and it came out really cool to my untutored eyes, so just knowing how she got to that point — that sort of writeup, really, for vidding or art manips, would be cool. (And if I get the gumption, I'll just email her, for example.)
If ever you want to share your thoughts on yaoi edits, I'm all ears (or eyes, whatever); even if I don't follow now, I'm always willing to keep any suggestions or complaints in mind!
I've decided to go ahead and pick up Photoshop (I can get it at a good price), so I'll have something to play with in my nonexistent free time. I'll check out those seminar/book references, thank you. I also saw recs for a book on layers (this one (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0321534166), actually), and I can look into that and masks and ... gromits and whatnot, heh. Thank you for the details.
A friend of mine swears by WMM, but I don't know if she's done precise timed cuts with it. Do you know anything about Adobe Premiere, pro or con, compared to the Sony Vegas line? And yeah, I sincerely doubt I'll need all that many tracks ... especially since I don't know what that even means yet! (For a programmer, I'm really quite ignorant of a lot of tech stuff, particularly hardware-related or -interfaced. But I remember 8-track tapes from my childhood! ::feels old:: )
