Anime Music Videos (AMVs) are remixes of anime and music pulled together from often divergent sources into astonishing works of art filled with action, drama, comedy, romance, and always a lot of heart. And the inaugural New York Anime Festival is proud to play host to a competition between the editors, storytellers, and artists that are AMV makers — with the winners taking home prizes from sponsors including Bandai Entertainment, Central Park Media, Classic Media Group, Del Rey Manga, and Media Blasters.

The New York Anime Festival is accepting AMVs in four genres and one special theme on New York City. AMV submissions must be postmarked by 15 October 2007. Visit the site to learn more.
