Multimedia, AV For those who follow my latest activities since I scaled down my OSNews participation, they know that videography has been it. Recently I tried to get more serious about it and so last week I shot a music video clip for a local Bay Area indie band, the HIJK (song is available for free download on their site). Should not be a surprise either that two out of the three band members are actually software engineers, this is the Silicon Valley after all. The following is an account of how I did everything and I also give some pointers on how to help your own favorite local indie bands with some video promotion. I find it to be one of the many ways to stick it to the RIAA and their status quo in the market. Update: Added a small making-of video.

AMV's have been doing this kind of thing forever.

Seriously, people have been hacking apart Anime and putting it to music ever since, like, the 90's.

There are some seriously wonderful ones out there, it is just sad that RL has finally caught up with something that Otaku have been doing for the past 2 decades.
