Here is one of the videos that I made for the AWA Pro competition this year. It uses a Linkin Park (In the End) / Smash Mouth (All Star) mashup that can be found here:

I feel that the song does the same thing with its happy lyrics and the serious mood created by the instruments. And so I really enjoyed editing with such contrasting elements. I noticed that some people have difficulty distancing themselves from the original context of the songs, and so they didn't really take the AMV seriously when they watched it, but I still love the way it turned out
Special Thanks to BecauseImBored1, GhetAMV, and Camichan19 for beta testing. And another thanks to BecauseImBored1 for finding me the perfect image that sums up my song
My other video for AWA pro technically isn't a AMV since it uses League of Legends promotional videos instead of anime. And so I don't think that I can actually upload it here. But if you want to see it, you can watch it on youtube here:
