So as I have been hinting at the end of reviews this
week, im going to be trying a couple of different things with the Anime Corner
that don’t just involve reviews (though those will still be a priority). And I figured since it’s Friday, it’s as good
a day as any to try this little feature out.
In addition to reviewing Anime, I have a deep love for creating AMV’s. Ever since high school when I first learned
how to cut and edit film on a computer and then heading into college where it
became a great relaxer, ive enjoyed splicing Anime with a live action Hollywood
trailer. There’s just something cool
about Edward Elric sounding like Colin Farrell from Miami Vice or Spike Spiegel
quoting Bruce Wayne and a sound effect matching an explosion in an Anime
perfectly that just makes me smile. I’ve
done quite a few but hardly ever post them so just to test this out, I’ll be
making Friday a designated AMV DAY (or AMV Friday). I’m going back into the vaults to determine
orders and track down videos for posting.
Any thoughts or questions on the process of making these vids, feel free
to let me know. I will be including some
commentary on each so I may clear some things up right off the bat. This is just a test for now but I hope it’s a
successful one and would love to show more of my editing work off on this
page. So without further ado…
Kenshin Bond
Video: Rurouni
Kenshin-Trust and Betrayal
Audio: Casino
Royale Teaser Trailer
(The following video is a fan based production. All titles are property of their respective

This was my first trailer after my return to editing as a
hobby following a lengthy hiatus after graduation from college. It is also the first where I would regularly
start keeping track of my editing projects after their completion. I always felt there were plenty of
comparisons between the rise of Mr. Bond and the Hitokiri Batosai a.k.a Kenshin
Himura. From their first kills to their
tragic encounters with love, all are highlighted in this trailer. The second half of the trailer is a bit of a
jumble in terms of action and sound synching.
But really, I just wanted to mix Kenshin’s earlier exploits with Judi
Dench’s speech to Bond at the beginning of the trailer, which is one of the
best in the Bond series. In that
respect, I think this trailer was pretty good at doing that speech justice.
Brand new review next week and maybe more new features to
replace the Classic Reviews. Take care
everyone.
