Changes: Vocaloid Fanmade Promotion Video

Latest revision as of 23:32, 29 January 2020

VOCALOID Fanmade Promotion Video, also known as Fanmade PV, is the phrase used within the VOCALOID community to describe a video set to music featuring a VOCALOID.

PVs are commonly seen on video-sharing sites such as niconico and, sometimes, YouTube.

Concept

Promotional videos can range from animated shorts, typography, live-action films, and drawn images set to music. These concepts are to show support for the original song and those who produced them and are regarded derivations of the originals just like fan fiction.^[1]^[2].

In the Japanese community, PVs are often made with authorization or commission of the original creator and/or groups. And it is not uncommon for groups, or circles, to include a illustrator or video maker to help. This is due to the more organized and professional level of the overall VOCALOID producer scene in Japan as many are indie, amateur or otherwise student musicians. The illustrator and animator scene is often absence from overseas fandom. Illustrators or animators of PVS are often paid or receive royalties from their works.

Feedback

Advantages

Fanmade PVs can result in making the original works more attractive and memorable due to their renderings and arts, which in turn brings in more support from a fresh audience. There are some songs that have become famous for their PVs alone and are often associated with them. Their status can reach a point that fan-artworks, cosplays, and merchandise will be based around them. Additional support by the websites such as KARENT and piapro, boosted a number of PVs leading to figurines and video game modules being released.

The most viewed PV on nico is "3DみくみくPV♪ (3D Miku Miku PV♪)", which accompanies "みくみくにしてあげる♪ (Miku Miku ni Shite Ageru♪)" featuring Hatsune Miku.^[3]　

Below is an example of how an original PV has lead to multiple types of tie-in promotions:

Disadvantages

Blackrockshooter byhuke — Black★Rock Shooter has been misunderstood as being a derivative of Hatsune Miku.

While Fanmade PVs can make the original works more popular, it must be noted that these concepts are subject to self-interpretations thus it may not be faithful to the author's original intent. This can include insertions of plots and settings that were unspecified or never present in the original. Songs like "ブラック★ロックシューター (Black★Rock Shooter)", "Corruption Garden" and "Secret" have featured characters that have been mistaken for the VOCALOID singer even when they are their own separate character.

Some popular PVs have been the center of arguments among fans who will use one interpretation over another to explain the "true" meaning of a song. One such example is "Secret", whose title, music, lyrics and infamous PMV do not match each other. The work was a plagiarization and its title referred to its hidden status as an upload on the then Nico Nico Douga website. In addition the song's meaning has never been stated so listeners often tried to make guesses about the meaning of the overall work due to the infamous PMV associated with it, thus these misinterpretations greatly influenced the community, even though the PMV has nothing to do with the song itself.

-'''Vocaloid Fanmade Promotion Video''', which is commonly abbreviated to ''Fanmade PV'',is a term often used in Japanese and it is what is called [[wikipedia:Music video|music video(MV), music clip or video clip]] in English.

-== Concept ==
-Pvs are short film or videos made by fans of the vocaloid original work, not by the [[:Category:Producer|original creator]], and accompanying of the work sung by vocaloid (including cover). Various great vocaloid fanmade PVs have been made and uploaded on video-sharing sites, such as [[Nico Nico Douga]] or Youtube, to support original works/videos/songs from which they derived. Most vocaloid fanmade PV creators use CG works, their own hand writing pictures, photographs or live-action films to create them. As relatively few PVs are completely animated, the false etymology of "picture video" has entered some parts of the English-speaking fandom.

-In Japan, they are often made with authorisation or commission of the original creator and/or groups or circles often include a illustrator or PV maker to help make them to promote their videos.  This is due to the more organised and professional level of the overall VOCALOID producer, illustrator and animator scene which is often absence from overseas fandoms and illustrators or animators of PVS are often paid for the work or receive royalties from their work.

-Some Vocaloid songs have become famous for their PVs and are often associated with them, with cosplayers and artworks being made based on the attire of characters within them.  In addition due to the support of [[Crypton Future Media, Inc.]]s [[KARENT]] and Piapro website, a number of PVs have had figurines based off of these PVs.  [[Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA- (series)|Project Diva]] has also included modules based on the designs of the characters.  Some have become known as a form of [[Derivative]] such as [[世界は恋に落ちている (Sekai wa Koi ni Ochiteiru)]]'s derivative "Princess Miku".

+===Disadvantages===
-Some PV creators are misinterpretations of the original works and feature unrelated topics.  Quite a few PV creators depict their own stories and settings which are unspecified in the original videos/songs with free interpretations and imaginations of their own.  In some of those fanmade PVs, what they depict are completely different from what the songs mean is an can even be completely the opposite. Songs like [[ブラック★ロックシューター (Black★Rock Shooter)]], [[Corruption Garden]] or [[Secret]] have featured characters that have been mistaken for the Vocaloid singer even when they are their own seperate character.
