    All I did for this video was change the music.....
    Let's just say it's an experiment for me.

    Anyways, I used the KH2 opening and I used the song Slow Chemical.

    Please tell me if I did anything right or wrong.

    Hmm, not half bad!

    There wasn't much editing going on there, though. Infact, the most I saw was at the beginning where the guitar begins. I know you were just changing the music to the intro, prettymuch, but for future reference:

    At the point that I just mentioned (when there's about 3:31 left; YouTube has a wierd way with keeping time), I would use a flash and a scene change to hit the drumbeat, probably when Sora is just about to jump off the tree, and then switch it to show him mid-jump when the guitar comes in (does that make sense?)...That may just be me personally, though. The clips were all from the KH2 intro, and while better-looking than in-game cutscenes, it can really take away from a video when that's all you use. Try mixing the clips up a bit more for your next AMV; and try to fit the lyrics, especially. You can try out some effects by right-clicking clips and selecting Video Effects, so be sure to experiment with those as well. Transitions are as simple as selecting from the menu or dragging clips together. I wouldn't use any of the really fancy ones as they can look...Out of place, but fades are nice for AMVs, especially on long clips because they make it look almost like layering.

    Overall, though, you did a good job. The song choice was original, as well.

    It was awsome, I can't really give advice, not an expert on vids.

    Like you said all you did was change the music. There was very little editting going on. =/

    After seeing the intro so many times just watching it again but with different music just bores me IMO. It's not really an AMV in that sense. But it was an experiment and I respect that. So I can't really judge it. But if you ever need help with making a proper AMV just tell me. =D

    I agree with DA. You didn't do anything besides change the music. Since it was a try at an AMV, you can't really judge this. Try matching up different clips with the music next time. Start off slow at first, work your way and you'll become really good.

    What ^ said. Also, try experimenting with some effects.
