How can I describe what this video is about, hmm...well, to put it simply: this video is parody of everything that sucks about DBZ music videos, and all of its stereotypes, all in one package! It's in the form of a home shopping TV show, so it has some live action footage, something I've never done (or seen) before in an anime music video. Not only that, but it features 3 songs (to all those who ever asked me to make a Limp Bizkit video...you asked for it! HA!). To read the extra long description for this video, please click here.

After making a music video to such a "hard" and "trendy" song (see below), I decided that I wanted to do something totally odd, and use a type of song that isn't normally used for DBZ videos.  Also, since I haven't made a straight up action video in a long time, I knew I wanted it to be a fighting video.  So, put an up-beat classical song and my favorite fight in DBZ, and you get this crazy thang!  I used the Piccolo/#17 fight as the concept of the video.  I'm very pleased with the result.  It's good quality, so don't hesitate to download the kinda big file. :)  Don't got much more to say than that.  It's my silly fight-fight-fight music video of the moment.

Before I get started with the description, I recommend that you download the MPEG version of the video rather than the RealVideo version.  The MPEG looks a *lot* nicer.

I don't wanna spoil what this music video is about here. :P I'll just say that it's a serious video about Trunks. To read my long-winded description of this video, please click here.

Title: "DBZ As X-Men: Movie Trailer"

Ok, so this isn't a music video, but I really had no idea where to put this.  Produced by me and Mike, this is the audio from an X-Men movie trailer, with video clips from DBZ.  If I say anything more, it'll give it away.  Let me know what you think of this, cuz if this gets a good response, we're bound to make more of these! ^_^

This is just sick. And twisted. And...fun!   It's a simple video, with not much of a point, but I hope you'll be entertained by it in any case.  That's all I can say without giving anything away.  Warning:   This song contains foul language.  If watching it is going to get me in trouble with your parents, * do not watch it* (or just keep the volume low.)  I really had fun with this video.  It's odd, and different from what I usually do.

This is another one of those music videos I made to make DBZ look like a sappy romance series in which all of the male characters are really silly romantics at heart. Hey, I at least get credit for trying right?

In this video, I wanted to show the unsung softer sides of our manly heroes, and the female characters that make them that way. It's somewhat in the vein of my "I Want Someone To Love" video, but not nearly as sexy. Rather, this one is entirely more light, and kind of pokes fun at the characters themselves.

The couples I focues on were Bulma / Yamcha, Krillin / 18 / Marron, Vegeta / Bulma, and Gohan / Videl. It's like a big DB doujinshi or something!

Title: "Break Me (Version 2.0)"

This is version 2 of a music video I made back in late 1999. It's my first real character profile music video. Almost a serious attempt at one, to boot!

The premise of the video is one that attempts to make sense of the somewhat disturbed character of Vegeta. The story shows him abusing his son, Trunks, being pretty self-destructive, suicidal, and of course the major pride issues come into play as well.

My desire to make this video basically stems from the song itself: Break Me. With this song in mind, there are basically two jokes that make up the video: Vegeta "breaking" himself as he commits suicide against Buu, and at the end of the video when #18 breaks his arm. Pretty simple, neh?

In the end, the video deals with Vegeta's psychological troubles (yes, I personally do like to believe DBZ is deeper than it really is ^^), and how they drive him batty! Had the timing and video quality been better, this would be something I'd be super duper proud of. But, a remake of this video would later come...

Title: "#17 &#18 vs. Trunks:  Past, Present, Future (Version 3.0)"
Format: MPEG
Song: "Bye Bye Bye," by *NSYNC
Length: 3:21
Size: 53 MB
Completed: 1/13/01

Technically speaking, this is a minor achievement in my early years of editing. I took two versions of *NSYNC's "Bye Bye Bye," the instrumental and the regular vocal version, and spliced them together. It was an experiment with audio on my part, and I think I learned from the process. I always used to get emails from people asking "where did you get that version of that song?" and I took pride in replying "I edited it myself!". The reason I edited the song in this way is kinda cheap: I knew a lot of the lyrics in Bye Bye Bye did not pretain to the video idea I was trying to convey (which was basically, the twin Androids against Trunks through multiple timelines), so I got rid of the romance-breakup lyrics by putting the instrumental versions of those lines on top. Cheating, yes, but I must say it's kinda clever.

I thought, other than the fact that the song is about a breakup, it could also relate to the relationship between these three characters. So, I used it. In an odd way, it kinda works.

As for the video itself, I used to not be able to get enough of Trunks and those wacky Androids, so I decided to make a music video about their recurring battles. It's painfully simple, but I really enjoying making this video, and the final product, when I originally made it.

Title: "Heart of Sword (Version 4.0)"
Format: MPEG
Song: "Heart of Sword," by TM Revolution

Since Trunks is my favorite anime character, it only seemed right to make a music video for him. This is the fourth version of my Trunks tribute music video, "Heart of Sword." As you might be able to tell from the title, the song used is "Heart of Sword," by TM Revolution. It is one of the ending theme songs from Rurouni Kenshin. Now, I generally dislike using Japanese/anime songs for my music videos, but the tune is just so gosh darned catchy, and it fits Trunks so well that I couldn't resist using it.

This video is bascially the tale of a boy and his sword. There are also some scenes of other important fights in Trunks' life, but I tried to keep the focus on Trunks using his sword. The video starts off strong, and the middle is ok, but near the end...I got lazy. I will probably remake this video *again* someday, when more commercial DBZ tapes/DVDs become available. But for now, this is as good as this video is gonna get. There's action, fighting, and...lotsa Trunks. This is just another one of my "let's have fun" DBZ music videos. I hope you like it!
