AMV Spotlight of the Week
This weeks AMV Spotlight features an AMV uploaded by YouTuber “Rajiv Andrade”. The video takes several anime shows and splices them together to fit with the featured song “Spirit Never Dies” performed by Masteplan. The AMV is an older post, but it all fits together and is so well made that it deserves to be noticed again. The creator takes the time to have the singers voices match up with the anime characters lip sync and it is nearly flawless. Also with the lyrics of the song the creator uses anime that has that fighting spirit and to never give up. The editing and splicing together of multiple scenes from different anime is also very impressive and seamless in their transitions. A great job on producing this video all the way around. You can find it on YouTube under “Spirit Never Dies Anime AMV” or check it out below:
AMV Spotlight of the Week
This weeks AMV Spotlight is on “snowdragon25”. Since we are getting ready for the biggest party of the year, I thought this AMV was appropriate. “snowdragon25” took the song “Party All Night (Sleep All Day)” performed by Sean Kingston and edited in several clips from different anime that featured the main characters dancing or singing. The scenes have some transitions with no hard breaks between the variety of scenes, a really nice job. The black border around the video is not my most favorite feature. I like for the AMV to take up the complete screen, but that’s just me. You can catch the AMV on YouTube under “Anime Dance Anime AMV – Party All Night” or check it out here:
