I create this thread with the purpose of having a place where Metalstormers can share with the rest of the community their video creations. Any type of video creation would fit this thread but I had in mind those videos which are edited while having a specific song played in the background which, somehow, has a relation with what is being shown by the visuals.

Feel free to share your videos here even those videos that you have seen through the net and which you find to be pretty good.

My contribution to this thread would be some ancient videos I made like a year ago. The videos are the followings:


1) Samurai X (Rurouni Kenshin) - Cradle Of Filth's "Hallowed Be Thy Name" (Iron Maiden Cover)

Here is the link to YouTube where you can see it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVPPpYek1mo

The lyrics of the song barely have something to do with what is shown but the scenes of the anime have a relation, certain synchronization, with the keyboards, the riffs, the guitar solos and their changes.

The video was made out of scenes from the movie: "Rurouni Kenshin: Ishin Shishi No Requiem (Rurouni Kenshin: Requiem For The Ishin Patriots)" and from the "Reflection" double disk finale of the series which has flashbacks of past episodes including what would come to be the ending, the real ending, of the story.


2) Star Wars - Metallica's "The Unforgiven"

Here is the link for the video at YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoTv7rVKsUA

Now, in order to really appreciate what this video is about you will need to know the lyrics of the song for I focused in what the song has to say and how it fitted Anakin's turn into the dark side of the Force. Because of this, the video has mostly scenes from the "Revenge Of The Sith" movie, but with some scenes from "The Phantom Menace" and "The Attack Of The Clones" here and there. If you don't know the lyrics of the song "The Unforgiven" I provide them to you here so that it will be easier for you to understand:

"The Unforgiven" by Metallica

New blood joins this earth
And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pain disgrace
The young boy learns their rules

With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Wont see what might have been

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub the unforgiven

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tries to please them all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Wont see what might have been

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub the unforgiven

You labeled me
Ill label you
So I dub the unforgiven


The video not only relies in the meaning of the verses and what is shown but it also has that synchronization with the music here and there.


3) Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriot - Boy Constrictor (Pig Destroyer)

Very short and brutal AMV. The video can be watched here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-WwTnOIfYs


4) Final Fantasy VII: Last Order - Progenies Of The Great Apocalypse (Dimmu Borgir)

Here is the link at YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7ISSNdw04U


5) Final Fantasy VII Advent Children - The Art Of Balance (Shadows Fall)

[url] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwpIQgHnrM4[/url]

Here are the lyrics of the song so that the video can be better understood.

I am sheltered by this apathy
Nothing left to do but torch the day
Retreating deeper into my mind
What is it that i hope to find?

This is the aftermath in me
Tendency to keep it all inside
A fool's disguise

I am strangled by this sympathy
Empty words with no meaning
Must release myself into the void
All illusions must be destroyed

This is the aftermath in me
Tendency to keep it all

How dare you compromise?
The balance of our lives
Excuses you devise
An internal suicide
I struggle to survive
A perfect goal for which to strive
Ignorance cannot disguise

The balance of our lives
Hiding the meaning of
Hiding the meaning of


It would be great to know what you guys and girls think of these videos I made. All critics are welcomed: both positive and negative.

If you are going to use a movie from a DVD disc, yes. You need to convert that movie into a file, into a video, that you can bring to the "project" and cut, edit, etc. If you by any chance get a hold of the Nero program I could explain better how to convert the video into a file. If you don't have a DVD burner, I think that you will have to download the movie from the Internet because there you will find them as files.

From oldest to latest:

Braveheart - Turisas - Battle Metal
It's not actually my first work, but all the previous stuff got wiped in a format. Anyway, when I first heard the song, I just knew I have to use it with this movie. Today it's some sort of a classic among my videos...

Shaolin Soccer - Cryonic Temple - Thunder And Lightning
That one was supposed to be somewhat humorous. Merging comedy like Shaolin Soccer with over the top band like Cryonic Temple had to come up like that

Troy - Blind Guardian - Battlefield
The last of my old stuff that survived to this day. The movie is 'Troy' and the song 'Battlefield', that should say enough what it is about.

War of The Worlds - Mercenary - Supremacy 2.0
The longest video I have ever made. I like how the song underlines dark aspects of WOTW. And the 'supremacy' goes perfectly with the ironical ending of the movie.

Pirates of The Caribbean - Verbal Deception - Pirate Attack
Just searched for the most pirate-sounding band, took the most fitting song and here it is
I wish it was a bit longer though, I could use more scenes.

Lord of The Rings - Manowar - Call To Arms
Remake of one of my first videos. I just love it how the music and lyrics fit the movie. The video is oriented around scenes from defending of Helm's Deep. From beginning to the end, the whole battle is here.

Metalocalypse - Dethklok - Duncan Hills Jingle
This one's pretty silly, but I just had to make something with that cartoon

Metalocalypse - Dethklok - Awaken Mustakrakish
And this one actually looks like a real band clip. Taken from my favorite episode too

Pink Floyd The Wall - Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
The only non-metal video from me that survived to this day. I think it's the best I've made so far (and it's much different from the rest of my works, also). The movie is really disturbing, and I think Comfortably Numb is the most fitting song from the whole The Wall album.

Yeah somebody on the internet tried to do what you did with Turisas' Battle Metal, but with Troy instead, and its absolute rubbish in comparison to your Braveheart masterpiece:

For the best Amv's, this is the website... thousands and thousands of quality Amvs... and the chance to actually see a review of the video that you are downloading... so no more 100Mb files that take long to download and the video sucks.
Youtube is really the graveyard of Amv's... so many lauzy works with 5 stars, i dont get it... videos unsychronized and with the subtitles get higher grades than masterpieces.

My favorites are Sail On (One Piece with Masterplan's ''Sail On'') and Man Of Sorrows (Berserk with Bruce Dickson's ''Man Of Sorrows'').

very nice video.. doesnt have any effects.. but the editor choose very well the best scenes of the anime, the synchronization between the drums and the hits of Gatts's sword was very nice too .. and the song really fits the feeling of the show

''Existence of one man
Hatred with no end
My madness, my sadness
I am my own savior ''

perfect..

I have only watched one video of ''OtakuVengeance''.. about five years ago.. a video about Trunks with Linkin Park's ''With You''.. besides linkin park, the video its pretty good.

Right now I'm going a video with footage of the 4th season of Lost, and the song Silently by Vanden Plas. It's taking forever and a lot of work but I want it to be perfect. I'll post the link here as soon as I finish it.

One of my favorites was Gatts and Griffith singing ''All in the family'' And another one in which Freeza is singing ''The memory remains'' from Metallica.
There are so many clips that its hard to remember all the good ones.. i also remember Tetsuo (from Akira) singing ''The Fresh Prince of Bel-air''.. i mean ''The Fresh Prince of Neo-Tokyo'' huaauuuha
