I've had this idea for a while, but I can't remember if I've brought it up on the forums before. I did a search which didn't get much, and since my memory's spotty, if I have brought this up, then it didn't generate much conversation.
It would be a specific type of MEP with three (or possibly more) editors involved. Two of the editors each make an AMV using the same audio source, but other than that, it's completely independent. Then, when their videos are finished, they send them over to the third editor, who then "weaves" them together into one "versus" video (can you tell I listen to too much trance?).
Of course, it should remind people of Iron Chef contests, but the difference is that there's no time limit (yeah, a bad thing in some ways, I realize) and the point isn't on-the-spot editing so much as synthesis of two completely different videos. I can already see a pitfall of certain genres not being suited for this (how do you make a romance video when you know another video is going to be constantly interrupting yours?), but I still think it's an idea worth at least discussing.
Thoughts? Realistic idea? Complete garbage?
