Maybe that person MADE the tutorial site? ^_^

The point, diving too deep into discovering how someone made an amv or MAD can actually ruin it. Don't let the fact he borrowed "dis - value" the work.

AMVs are borrowing all the time, but that doesn't make them any worse does it? ^^

that was a great MAD vid
Excellent use of effects
but things got a little bit questionable with too much effects
Some portions looked too fancy for me.
Other than that it was good
Lurid Enchantment - ICYCLOUD
urban suite - TRYTHIL
大切な思い - BAKADESHI
Expansion - RESK

Corran wrote: A lot of MADs are like alternate openings for animes. Not very many of them follow a story like those found in AMVs. They are quite literally a different variation of music videos.
Actually, MADs have more in common with Hentai game trailers/demos and openings because...well, they use the same material - images/scenes cut from the game and "animated" through After Effects and a lot of editing. In fact I've noticed a couple of MAD creators have edited Hentai demos.

But you're right, it is a different kind of "music video."

Kudos for using a song from Jubei-Chan!! I actually got all excited when the video started because I first thought that you were using the opening from Jubei... but the ending song is cool too! :P

Thanks for the nice comments everyone, and thanks for the opinion Kain :)

And if anyone has any ideas or suggestions for the website please tell. We want to make this the premiere MAD website for westerners.
