Lack of inspiration... Help?

[Sora no Honou 空の炎]

I have wanted to edit something together for a while now, but havent really had a drive for it lately. I think that part of it is that I cant really think of too much that would make for a good amv. Have any tips on how I could get motivated, and how to choose a song that would make for a good amv? Thanks.

-Browse the depths of thar interwebs until you stumble upon a song that gives you an idea for a story
-Think of which animu could work with that story idea
-Listen to the song until you find one or two spots where you can place a specific clip from your series
-????
-Inspiration!

You can't find inspiration, inspiration will find you instead.

I generally had motivation after watching something I liked, or listened something I like.

A great way to inspire me is to simply just listen to music. I hear a song that I know I can edit to and if it has a nice flow to it, then I simply start to edit to it. Its the music that captures the audience, not the anime. im new by the way

I've always been big on letting inspiration come to you; forcing it usually hinders the product. However, I will say this:

Keep a notepad around for when you do have inspiration. Write down your ideas, no matter where you are, even at the most inopportune times.
