Unofficial, fan-made music videos (“bootleg” tapes) are typically made by synchronizing existing footage from other sources, such as television series or movies, with the song. The first known fan video, was created by Kandy Fong in 1975 using still images from Star Trek loaded into a slide carousel and played in conjunction with a song. The use of Video cassette recorders to make Fan videos soon followed. With the advent of easy distribution over the internet and cheap video-editing software, fan-created videos began to gain wider notice in the late 1990s. Such videos are sometimes known as OPV, Original Promotional Videos (or sometimes Other People’s Videos). In the case of anime music videos, the source material is drawn from Japanese anime or from American animation series. Since neither the music nor the film footage is typically licensed, distributing these videos is usually copyright infringement on both counts.
