My Experimental Gameshow

[purplepolecat]

In the Anime Evolution AMV room last weekend, I decided to try an experiment that had been running around in my head for a while. The premise is that I take an AMV and mash up the video track with the video from other AMVs, while keeping the music the same. In some cases, I keep the video track the same and mix in the music from other AMVs.

Then I get some contestants to watch the resulting videos and guess which of the mixed up tracks is the "correct" one.

Some rounds I made deliberately easy by picking incongruous sources, some I tried to make hard by attempting to make the "fake" tracks sync up, but only by linear time shift.

I doubt anyone who hangs out here would find it challenging, as you all have a good eye for sync and have probably watched all the source AMVs. However, I though you might find it interesting, so here's a link to the videos. Quality is not great due to re-encoding etc.

The five contestants did pretty well, they unanimously guessed most of the rounds correctly, but three of the rounds gave them some trouble.

Sounds like fun. I'll check it out this evening and see how many I can guess

I guess hard mode would be adding poorly synced random videos into the mix?

Interesting concept. Some of these were really easy (I knew the answer right when the song started), but I could see how it could be found to be difficult. Coo.
