Multi-Anime AMV -- United States of Pop 2009

My largest project to date (and the first to make it to YouTube), comprising 53 anime series and 103 individual clips set to DJ Earworm's "United States of Pop 2009 (Blame It on the Pop)".

This project came with its own set of problems and annoyances, such as the constant crashing of WMM and the inability of that program to save a file as large as this one (which would have been nice to know going into it rather than discovering it at the end).

In order to cope with these, I had to break the finished product into three separate files, publish them through WMM, import those published files, and reassemble them as a new WMM file. I then had to re-sync the music with the clips, which accounts for some of the less-than-perfect synching in the version you see before you.

Add to that the fact that WMM likes to arbitrarily slow down and speed up clips in its previews, and that conversion from HD formats to those that WMM can handle lowers the quality of videos to pixilated vomit, and you have an AMV that I am frustrated by but of which I am nonetheless extremely proud.

(I apologize for the quality of the sound -- my intent is to replace the audio with a higher quality version, but that is dependent on my being able to acquire a better version that WMM will accept.)

Criticism is welcome, but I'm unlikely to undertake such a large project in WMM again, and am hoping to have better, more professional video editing software around Christmas.

amazing amv but it would help a hell of a lot more if he put the times of when the anime is showed cuz there not in order like the discription says

[AnonFleance]

@whiteworm5 Sorry if the list causes confusion: what I meant by in order of appearance was when each show appeared for the first time -- I didn't include the many, many duplicates that occur throughout the video, as that would make the list way, way too long. The way I usually find out which show is which on other people's AMVs is to google the show and see if the animation styles match. If there's a particular show you'd like me to pinpoint, though, let me know! :)

I really love this video, and because of this particular video I found several months ago, I created a netflix account and started watching anime again after having stopped some 5 or 6 years. I REALLY think you're talented, and can't wait til you upload a newer version with better sound quality. The picture quality could be upped, but the sounds needs it more. But, alas, you did a fucking wonderful job. Good work, soldier. :D
