Back in April 2009, my friend, AMV producer nsomniacartist, and one of her friends went through their CD collections to find some good material for new AMVs. After a few months of initial development, she approached me with one of the projects that spawned from that session. She had been working on combining Cowboy Bebop with the song Tribute by Tenacious D. I think both of these things are awesome, so I immediately agreed to help in any way I could. I don’t have the artistic skills to really produce anything, outside of my ability to write, but I do have an eye for quality. Fortunately, she had all the video and sound editing skills more than covered; that’s why she’s the artist and I’m the guy writing this post. After watching the original, very rough draft, we started kicking around ideas, clips, and effects. It took us six long months, working around computer meltdowns and finagling with Adobe’s silly software. She showed me her final release candidate, I gave it my seal of approval, and she submitted the video for this past Ohayocon. The result? She took home the award for Best Comedy, and there was much rejoicing!
Enough about the story, I’m sure you’d much rather have entertainment. I know that Youtube embedding doesn’t play always play well with browsers, so click after the break to see the final product.
