A comment in another thread prompted this. I used to do a few of these for fun. It actually became kind of a hobby collecting the good ones (downloading them from morpheus) I've done about half a dozen of them but only 2 are on Youtube.
(

(

The Rise against one is my favorite that I've ever done. I"ll see if I can upload the other ones on youtube, if you're on animemusicvideos.org my username is the same as on here. and you can check out the rest there. The only one that i can't upload on that site is my Dark Fury vid... apparently its not real anime so they won't allow it.
I dunno.. its been years since I made these. What do you think?

I like that one, the song is cool and the editing is decent. GitS 2 looked awesome, although I can't remember anything of the story, which was kind of the problem I had with it. I haven't seen the other animes used.
I loved FLCL so much. I'm probably one of the few who read the manga beforehand which was ridiculous fun and the anime was even better. My second favourite next to Cowboy Bebop. The editing is good here as well, but I don't quite like the song, which is not your fault, but an AMV kinda hinges on the music for me. And since FLCL had such a brilliant theme song ((

I've seen quite a few AMVs, these are good work all around, just a bit overloaded as AMVs tend to be. I've come to like those AMVs the best that focus on a certain relationship or topic, like (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MBXI78N3fA) this Cowboy Bebop one, that sets only Spike's flight scenes to Ram Jam's Black Betty which works awesomely.

Yeah I thought I'd be all sneaky and use it in the "ending credits" of the video. On the DVD it gives you a special feature where you can watch the end credits without the credits... Who on earth would need that? Well I used it in the video and I figured anybody who watched FLCL would find it at least amusing.
That video isn't my favorite, it was supposed to be goofy, and I think I pulled off goofy but not much else.
I'll try to get my riddick one up.

Likely not much else is going to happen, so here's one of my own videos. It's not an AMV but of a related genre, namely GMV or Machinima: (

I designed the blonde Laura myself including face and clothing. The game has become one of my favourites. It's all about style and fun. I'm looking forward to play Underworld.

Distracting....
But no, I don't think anyone here is in the adult movie industry. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I mean really.
