Why don't very skilled anime pro users make a feature flim
Moderators: Víctor Paredes, Belgarath, slowtiger
My partner is still writing it so I have nothing to show from the actual film.jackass wrote:What is your flim about and how much of it is done. Can you show us some character designs.
However, I did create a short teaser trailer:

Here's the page from my website:

This project wasn't originally conceived as a feature-length project. First it was gonna be a 10 minute short then a half hour film... now we've decided to make it feature length.
It's gonna take us a long time to make but I think I'm up to a good challenge.
Mostly announcement. An extra animator would be nice though. I have one other guy working on the animation with me. We're splitting it up between us.so was that post only made for announcement or are u looking for animators?

Okay i have a problem with magix music maker. You can't sell the music! I plan on selling the flim im making and was planing to use mm to make a sound track. The copyright said music can be for comerical purpose as along as you put Magix in the credits. Key words use for comerial but can't be sold. If i sell my flim and use magix for the soundtrack is that selling the music. If so then any one knows what other music making soft ware i could use for the soundtrack that's cheap and won't get me sued.
Uh... where exactly does it say you can't sell the music? Magix Music maker looks like a music creation and editing program... I don't see anywhere in the documentation or features list that it says you can't "sell" the music. What would be the point of buying a program for that purpose and then be restricted?
I think you are incorrect. You can't "resell" the sound libraries as "loops" to create music but you can sell songs you create with the application. That is the standard limitation for programs like this.
This program is similar to "Garage Band" on the Mac. To prevent use of the created songs for any purpose would be like preventing Anime Studio users from selling their animations.
It could be that there may be restrictions on the SAMPLE songs included with Magix Music Maker... I don't have access to that information.

Ok, the german view, 
All music samples in Music Maker are GEMA free, GEMA is alike ASCAP or MCPS here in Gemany, so if you present your music puzzle you don't have to pay anything.
And I believe this an international law, otherwise the Magix-company would execute itself very fast.
And Music Maker can also be used on stage.
some music groups can preproduce samples to fill up their sound as a background and make a big show.
Music Maker has also included a drum machine and other nice features to makes noises which sounds in some ears alike music...
You can create untalented lousy mud and shit with the Music Maker or some very good wonderful sound.
So there is a need for your own artistic creativity.
However, to create a real melody, no, this is something Music Maker can't do.
For this reason, you should buy a Midi keyboard, and use the samples as inspiration, and as backgrounds as the wave which brings you to your goal.
With some editing, which is for good results necessary nobody would or should make some trouble.
If you are really in doubt, write to to the software company and ask.
In my view you can use it, and publish it, just accompanied with a little Midi-keyboard and then it is really a work of your own.

Jackass,
Are you using the free trial version? It could be the trial version is limited for usage... but I wouldn't know how it could be proven unless it puts some kind of audio "watermark" on the exported songs.
Are you using the "Pro" version or the low end version? I only saw feature differences and can't imagine they would restrict it's use beyond that.
I think you may have read the EULA incorrectly or just don't understand it. Commercial use is commercial use. If you buy the program you can use it to make and sell whatever you create with it. They even make that one of their big features, industry standard CD format export.
I even searched google for "complaints" and found no reference to Magix Music Maker and "restrictions" on use. None. No results. That means it might be true but not a soul anywhere in the world has made mention of it... uh... which is unlikely.

I down loaded the new anime studio 6 and now i can't find my pro 5 on my laptop should i be worried about having to buy again. Or should i not buy it again and wait for studio 6. It wouldn't be a big change since im still working on my story, drawings and hadn't started animating yet so nothing animated therefore nothing lost. When will the finale verson of AS6 be out.
I'm sorry but I don't understand. What do you think that license says as far as using the program for creating music for sale or commercial use? It seems clear to me you can use it for that purpose as long as you don't distribute the individual sound files.jackass wrote:I found the information i was looking for by going in my magix soft ware and going to it's content libary called catooh. I copy and past the license terms up here in case anyone else is confuse of what you can and can't do with Magix music maker. Wish I did that instead of going by the intrenet.
They just don't want you to give away the clips from their product that you purchased to be used by others in the same way. You can use the clips for your commercial use but others can't use YOUR content for that purpose.
