I create them simply as a creative outlet. I've always been a creative person, and AMV's are just another way for me to express that. Sometimes I create them specifically for myself (ones that I like that I know others won't), sometimes for other people (requests), and sometimes just for the general viewing public. But no matter what, it always comes down to personal enjoyment, both in the pride of knowing you made it, and in the joy you get when watching it.

I think you mean:
"80's. Cheese. Exposure."

Just like in Hollywood.

Though I prefer more recent music, add also my love for Anime, and that pretty much sums it up for me.

I make AMVs because they are my creative outlet. The ego of course wants to show those videos off and the positive reactions and such is awesome, but in the end I do this so I have something to watch.

Thats not to say that popularity and praise have nothing to do with my creative process. Positive feedback is what pushes people to excell even more so than their personal goals and growth, I'd imagine. :up:
