Line 5: An '''anime music video''' ('''AMV''') is a [[Fan labor\|fan-made]] [[music video]] consisting of clips from one or more Japanese animated shows or movies set to an audio track, often songs or promotional trailer audio. The term is generally specific to Japanese anime, however, it can occasionally include footage from other mediums, such as American animation, [[live action]], or video games. AMVs are not official music videos released by the musicians, they are fan compositions which synchronize edited video clips with an audio track. AMVs are most commonly posted and distributed over the Internet through AnimeMusicVideos.org, video downloads and [[YouTube]]. [[Anime convention]]s frequently run AMV contests who usually show the finalists/winner's AMVs. AMVs should not be confused with music videos that employ original, professionally made animation (such as numerous music videos for songs by [[Daft Punk]]) and [[Gorillaz]], or [[Linkin Park]]’s song “[[Breaking the Habit (song)\|Breaking the Habit]]” which was animated by [[Gonzo (company)\|Gonzo]]) or with such short music video films (such as Japanese duo [[Chage and Aska]]'s song "[[On Your Mark]]" that was produced by the film company [[Studio Ghibli]]). AMVs should also not be confused with fan-made "general animation" videos using non-Japanese animated video sources like Western animation, or with the practice of [[vidding]] in Western [[media fandom]], which [[convergent evolution\|evolved convergently]] and has a distinct history and fan culture. Parallels can be drawn between AMVs and [[songvid]]s, animated fan-made videos using footage from movies, television series, or other sources. The first anime music video was created in 1982 by 21-year-old Jim Kaposztas.<ref>{{cite web \|url=http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/fo20071115pm.html \|last=Macias \|first=Patrick \|author-link=Patrick Macias \|title=Remix this: anime gets hijacked \|work=[[The Japan Times]] \|date=2007-11-15 \|access-date=2009-10-20}}</ref> Kaposztas hooked up two [[videocassette recorder]]s to each other and edited the most violent scenes from ''[[Star Blazers]]'' to "[[All You Need Is Love]]" by [[the Beatles]] to produce a humorous effect.<ref>{{cite AV media \|author=AnimeCons TV \|url=https://animecons.tv/extra/17/jim-kaposztas-interview\|title=Jim Kaposztas Interview\|date=2 October 2011\|access-date=1 June 2018\|publisher=AnimeCons TV}}</ref> Line 36: ==See also== * Movie Anime [[Dōjinshi]] – Japanese term for the same thing, typically posted on [[Niconico]] * [[Vidding]] * [[D-TV]] * [[HBTV]] * [[YouTube ~~Poop~~poop]] * [[Remix Culture]]
