Best Action Video

Ileia - Never Gonna Stop Me
Judges comments:
- An old-school action video, exactly as expected from Ileia. Superb, simple editing throughout and flow is as tight as ever.
- Action sequences are nicely done, but everything that’s non-action is edited a but weak. There’s some matter of build-up/structuring, which is nicely done.


Best Character Profile

Castor Troy - Go the distance
Judges comments:
- Adrenaline rush due to a simple character analysis. You can totally see things from the protagonists perspective in this video and that's what makes a good character profile
- No contest. Tells the story clearly without using any words. Very well-structured. What else can I say?


Best Collaborative Video

Name it "Hugo" or "Mike" or "Princess Sophia" unless the video is actually good. If so, ignore this post: A Guide to Dada
Judges comments:
- I don't think this video needs any introduction or explanation. It's a great combined effort that shows that there are no limits on what can be done creatively with the basic idea behind AMVs. A Guide to Dada is an excellent mockery of pretentiousness and yet at the same time a great example of it. There is lots of things to discover in this one little collab so I don't really see how this video could have any kind of contest here.
- Some parts of this were great. Other parts were complete shit.


Best Comedy Video

DriftRoot - Takeout
Judges comments:
- Clever and funny. Really does the alternate-story thing well, even if it is kind of disturbing.
- A funny video with a lots of “hidden messages” edited in the backgrounds of the frames. It achieves to be funny by creating a funny story itself, instead of relying on “funny audio”.


Best Dance Video

Nostromo_vx - Running Man
Judges comments:
- Video is crisp and clean and has great flow. I wasn't attacked by haruhi. It's a little long for what it is though.
- It feels like this video was a step out of the usual comfort zone for Nostromo, and I think that that's one of the strong points that make Running Man so refreshing and appealing to the audience. It has lots of passion and love put into the little stuff. The reoccurring themes make it almost seem as if there were little mini-stories revealing themselves to you while watching this AMV.


Best Dramatic Video

dokidoki - Choices
Judges comments:
- Quite thought provoking
- If there were a category for most depressing video this one would pretty much have no contest. It's sad and at the same time inspiring, a great mix of dramatic emotions.


Best First Video

Artofeel - The Conspiracy of Law
Judges comments:
- Colour me impressed.
- With a fairly interesting and also pretty long plot development this video shows way more complexity than most first videos. And even though there is some sloppy effects work here and there the really important ones are usually well done.


Best Fun Video

Bonefixer - Clarissa
Judges comments:
- Random slapstick at its finest. Superbly edited and lots of fun to watch.


Best Horror Video

Ingow - What's He Building?
Judges comments:
- Very interesting and builds up suspense, but totally anti-climactic.
- Mood was horrorish and I liked the way it feels like a campfire horror story that is being told.


Best Multi-Editor Project

Chiikaboom - Project Elysium
Judges comments:
- A lot of planning and editing work is clearly visible in this MEP. The editors seem to have added their own styles to the whole without it feeling too disconnected in the end.
- None of the MEPs this year really blew me away, but this one did make me take notice.


Best No-Effects Video

MeriC - One Guitar
Judges comments:
- Excellently synched, and a story told in classic rock ballad style.
- Due to it being a video that's only using basic fades and cuts there is more room for the actual character profile and the story in this video. Considering that that's the core of the AMV this was a pretty good decision.


Best Parody Video

Tsunami Jones - Cockpit Love
Judges comments:
- So, so wrong. But since I watched it with a huge grin from start to finish, I think it deserves a top vote.
- Hands down the most interesting parody video out there. It's refreshing and has a very subtle look at first, but it still gets its point across and sooner or later starts being very in-your-face with its concept.


Best Romantic Video

Moonlight Soldier - Still Love
Judges comments:
- Cute and upbeat - a real treat in what's always such an emo category.
- Branching out from the safe bets on romance animes this video uses a less popular show. Apart from that aspect for general originality the romance story is clear and in the foreground, pretty much all the effect work feels innovative and fitting as well.


Best Sentimental Video

Kitsuner - A Little Retrospect
Judges comments:
- AMV Nostalgia has never been this perfect, you get all the oldschool videos piled into a couple of minutes so you don't ACTUALLY have to watch them. Brilliant!
- It made me feel sentimental...


Best Trailer or Commercial

Silk_SK - Eureka Transformers v2
Judges comments:
- Perfect basic trailer recipe with everything you'd need. It's not too overloaded with lip sync and the adrenaline rush of the action parts is definately there.
- Superb match and very strong editing that makes it come together even more. Has a real "bang" to it when action kicks in. Enjoyed from start to finish.


Best Use of Instrumental Music

Cross/fade - Festival of Life
Judges comments:
- A solid and interesting instrumental video with one flaw: it's over-edited. Otherwise it's very enjoyable.


Best Use of Lip Synch

Hige-san - Drill of Destiny
Judges comments:
- Drill of Destiny is practically made out of lip-sync, yet neither does it feel overused or ever get boring. Storytelling through lip sync has never been this successful.


Best Use of Multiple Anime

Gaurry - Muse
Judges comments:
- An interesting concept that works out very well, with the multiple sources working together.
- The weird but absolutely interesting way of compositing and putting these different animes together is clearly one of the video's strong points. It's not too overdone and everything in this video feels completely thought-out and planned beforehand.


Best Use of Special Effects

Koopiskeva - Twilight
Judges comments:
- The effects fit the concepts in this one, and the level at which they're executed is very high. A good, tasteful match.


Most Artistic Video

Gaurry - Muse
Judges comments:
- Really interesting idea, and again, insanely-complicated technical work that actually comes together and makes a better video in the end.
- A very minimalstic artsy video. You just gotta love how everything flows together and how the scene selection adds to the effects and the main idea perfectly.


Most Original Video

piiiiii - End
Judges comments:
- No contest here. This video is crazy. Batshit insane awesome crazy.
- Easily hits the top of this list. Not only is the entire video made with credits and some ascii piiiiii manages to make it fun to watch and include a heart touching story.


Most Helpful Member

dokidoki
Judges comments:
- No contest. Doki has really given more to this site than anyone over the past couple of years. And I don't (only) mean his recent donation.


Most Improved Editor

Megamom
Judges comments:
- Megamom's gone from an unknown to a fan-favourite and really a top-class editor, all mostly in the space of one year.


Rookie of the Year

Nya-chan Production
Judges comments:
- Nya started off a bit shaky but has quickly improved and is really producing very interesting material now.

(Note: There was some debate if she should be included. I left for the judges to decide if they felt she should be disqualified and most didn't)


Video of the Year

Kitsuner - A Little Retrospect
Judges comments:
- So the footage isn't his the concept is just so god damn cute.
- Nostalgia level all the way up. There's no video on the org that can bring old times back this effectively.


Editor of the Year

Ileia
Judges comments:
- Ileia shows no slowing-down this year. She has not had any runaway successes this time, but her editing's no worse for it.
- Lots of very high quality stuff...
