    Every week, I scour the video portal's latest submissions and pick my top five favorites. Just because you don't make it into the top five does not mean that you're video wasn't good. We just have so many good videos that they're hard to choose from!

    A very emotional AMV based week this week. Here are the Top 5

    This Week's Winner: WGreyB | View Video
    Song: Nobody's Home by Avril Lavigne

    A very good video overall. I liked the transition you used at the beginning with the glow and blur. I don't have any main criticisms. It's a very well made video with a good story. Congratulations.

    Song: Shadow and Regrets by Yellowcard

    I've had that very same idea for an AMV using that same song and same theme. My only criticism is the limited variety of transitions which is not your fault but rather the limits of WMM. Well done.

    Song: With You by Chris Brown

    Another good video with some nice use of effects, my only complaints are some better lip syncing and smoother transitions.

    Song: Bubbly by Colbie Caillat

    Another good emotional video, I don't really have any complaints other the the flow wasn't great at some points. Good job.

    Song: Hurt by Christina Aguilera

    Anoher good emotional video, with a few personaly flaws. I found the intro to be a bit to long and dull, and there wasn't any need for those subtitles, the song tells that for you, a good AMV makes the point across by using the song and the clips, which is what you did, so they were pointless. But beyond that great.


    Now for the Special Mentions, since this week was so hard, here are 2 videos that didn't quite make it, but deserve a mention:

    Song: Rooftops by Lostprophets

    A currently flawless beta (apart from the blank part which I assume you haven't done yet). so keep at it and don't scew it up. =P

    Song: Move by Thousand Foot Krutch

    A bit to short for my liking to be in the Top 5, but deserves a special mention.

    Hope you enjoy them all, and keep submitting! Maybe your video will show up here next time!
