Clearly you need to go watch <a href="http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... 9">this</a>, RIGHT NOW.

I'm sure this fits. In less then one minute I might add...I'm pretty sure he had a deep meaning going on.... XD

My # 1 Advice: Never have a guy in a purple jumpsuit in your AMV.

# 2: Linkin Park is always your best song choice.

# 3: Dont have racoons in ur amv.

Avoid raccoons altogether.

I disagree that filter whoring is bad. I've seen a lot of great AMv's that use it, and make it into something really great!

I also agree with the whole bad intergration of "sad" and "fun" scenes, which can sometimes be good. I did it in my last video, Faith, showing how even the darkest of sadness can lead to happiness.

I digress...

Editing is different for everybody.
