I really want to make a music video, but I dont know how. SO if somebody could give me a walkthrough, I would really appreciate it. And if somebody could tell me the best program to make a banner, I would really appreciate that too. Thanks in advance.

Well, as far as I know, Adobe Premire would probably be the best for an AMV although the downsides include how MONSTEROUSLY complicated it is and the fact that it costs, like, $600. I use Magix Movie Maker myself although it's pretty crappy. I'd get Adobe but I don't have the cash. Go to the "Software" part of a-m-v.org to get info on it.

As for the banners....I wouldn't know. I've never made one

banners:

As for, "Where to Start" it is best that we understand what Video is and then
go from there. Video is simply Pictures ( one frame at a time ) and that is also
the kinda of Editor you will need; something that can handle frame by frame.

One simple affect is called fading. Fading types are found in Transitions Area.
In order to fade from one picture to another, we need at least Two Lines of
Video to work with and this is possible in very few so called editors today:
Asymetrix - Digital Video Producer ( $30.00 )
Ulead - MediaStudio Pro ( $$$ )
IMSI - Coral Lumiere Suite ( $40.00 )
Adobe - Primiere ( $$$ )
MAGiX - Audio & Video Office ( $25.00 )
- the rest are just a little to bizzare to get into T_T
All of these Editors have one thing in common, they work with RAW footage!
(( this means, nothing pre-codec'd like Subbed Anime from the net ))

before you attempt to make an AMV, get some Video's and see what your Editor
can do before you ask any questions about affects/effects/codecs/ or audio.

- - these prices are quoted from E-bay and are not the retail prices.

Play around with a few clips and see what you can do; if after that you still
want to make an AMV, we'll be waiting ^^

like they all said adobe premiere is the best one out there for vid editing but it will cost you $600 or so. you could use tmpgenc or vdub they are two free programs and do a pretty good job. and for banners adobe photoshop is the best but that is like $400. but u could use something cheaper or if u dont want to spend any money u could use mspaint witch came with your comp but it is really crappy.
