As many of you know Anime Fun TV is a fan made show, however its takes allot for one person to do this show; and I need to say this now before it gets out of hand, I CANNOT guarantee that this show will go on past Season 4. Reason why? Basically Finances, it nearly takes almost $500 to do one season, that’s right, one season, that’s including time and equipment. That doesn’t even include how much time I put into DVD’s, Stickers, Flyers, etc… Now I don’t want anyone to think that I’m begging for money, because I’m not; People like you have a choice to help donate, and not to donate, however, with slim finances coming in the horizon I cant help to be felt alone in this project; Its tiring and mentally draining. You also may be asking why don’t get a sponsor? I should, however, there aren’t much comic stores or video game stores that’ll help out, most video game stores are national stores (Game Stop, EB) and comic stores are more privately owned, so thus I can go ask, however I will already know what there going to say… Finances aren’t the only thing that’s holding the show, there are also legal crap that hinders the show from its mission, truly AMV’s are illegal, however that doesn’t stop me from showing them when I can. Another main reason is my motivation for the show it self, when I first started AFTV I had so many plans and such for the show, and I go by what fans want in a show, but I haven’t gotten any responses or any type of comments on what would help out the show, for me this is very difficult, not only that it also hurts that people just don’t care. I don’t have much time as I did when I started on the show, and I wish I could do this full-time, but by the way it looks it may not even last till its 2nd anniversary.For fans, By (a) Fan(s), when people don’t help out, its frustrating and disappointing, even if its just an encouragement that helps, it keeps me motivated, if people tend to start dissing me and say this show sucks, it hurts personally, I put so much into this show for you all, and not just the fans here in San Antonio, but the world, we get videos as far as the Netherlands here on AFTV, and what I want the show do to is help get the word out on how AMV’s and there creators are creative in there works?. Including my own in how an AMV show could be like. I just hope some my words could spark something inside you to help out the show, even if it’s a small comment of encouragement, to help finance the show.
Thanks you,
