That one was HUGE for years, and was basically "that tech video" until Euphoria came around.


And not one mention for Shameless Rock Video? The video that taught the whole world how to use DVD footage?

And my manson video wasn't really influential, because no one has done anything similar to it. Still. After 5 years.

I gets lonely up here.

Love it or hate it, and I dunno if it was the first, but this pretty much inspired the entire Trailer genre.

For those of us that started up in the very late 90's & early 2000's, it's hard not to see Kevin Caldwell (love him or hate him) has a big influence on the hobby.

While I know that it definitely wasn't the first, it's hard to deny the influence the popularity of this video had on the lip-sync/out-of-contest genre.

This video taught many people what sync really meant (both internal and beat/cut sync).

Out of contest? I thought he sent it to Anime Expo.

Mmm, yeah, I was just reading the interview with Absolute Destiny and he even mentions that this was one of the inspirations for Shameless Rock Video. This type of editing is very much still visible to this day in some form or another. Maybe you can argue that it's a fairly logical kind of editing (that if he didn't do it, somebody else would have eventually), but nevertheless, it's there to have been popular enough and influence the masses.

Even if it's natural, somebody had to discover it. Like... Many of Sergei Eisenstein researches in film like the perfect woman experiment. If you know what I'm talking about.

I would say that Kevin Caldwell's work are the most inspirational amvs ever.

Creator: Duane Johnson

Why Influential: See above (or below :P )


Personally I think if we want to talk about Duane Johnson's body of work Particle Man/DBZ is probably the most influential AMV. I say this because it was a short simple video that was massively sent around the net at a time when video distribution hadn't even taken off in the community yet. Some of editors who are now 20-somethings probably saw this in high school on some random website back during the modem years.

Creator: Quu
Series: Shoujo Kakumei Utena
Year: 2001
Why Influential: Quu pioneered some of the ways to work with game footage, and his guide still works today for Sega Saturn footage. Particle Dance is entirely from the Utena game. It is also one of the earliest techno only videos I am aware of.


I don't see this being new in terms of music used. I'm pretty sure Ermac was already using electronic music before this as well as other videos. I'm pretty sure Maboroshi used what would qualify as techno in the myriad number of 90s stuff he pumped out. This AMV was certainly more influential at the time for proving how shitty ACen's old contests were run. You know something is wrong when the creator himself basically asks why did this win Drama =p

I doubt Pwolf is going to show everything I posted. And yes, I would agree, Particle Man/DBZ is one I should have mentioned. I just lain forgot about it.

Quu is modest, and I like a lot of his videos way better than he does.

One of the best and longest "story" driven videos that really takes "storytelling" to a whole other level.

I'm surprised after 5 years it hasn't been duplicated. The closest thing to a short film on this site.
