I regard this as my best Avatar vid. The song is by Hammerfall.

It's My Life: Avatar Secondary Characters
All right...thank you to ravenhpltc24, first of all. She uploaded her own version of this song in an Avatar music vid only a few hours after I uploaded this one's first edition. It was a complete coincidence, but it wasn't until my own brother said that hers "completely schooled" mine that I realized that I HAD to do this one over a bit. And it wasn't really because I felt that mine was pathetic compared to raven's, or that I wanted to compete or try to outdo hers (pause for laughter). The main reason was because I realized that I'd fallen into the trap of lip-synching--I went into the vid with the intention of having very little lip-synch and very big action shots. Within thirty seconds, I'd forgotten my purpose and had succumbed to the lip-synch. It turned out boring. Watching raven's emphasized that, and thus, I pulled it and redid it.
My brother also managed to convince me to add Haru into this one. He's not one of my favorite characters, but HE fits the song well. Very well. No matter how sensitive he is.
I played around with the effects a bit--if you're interested, you can ask, but I'm not telling. You should be able to do all of these effects with a basic Windows Movie Maker. You'll have to find out how on your own. Be original and creative, and you'll find ways. I'm happy with some of the effects...nothing on Sony Vegas or the big programs, but passable.
If you don't watch ravenhpltc24's vid before/after watching this one, I WILL come to your house and dig up your garden and fill it with dandelions and other weeds. WATCH IT.
The old description follows:
Jet and Zhao are easily the two most major characters in this AMV. This vid is mainly a tribute to all of those characters for whom you harbor some sort more... of respect, whether positive or negative, but just don't have enough clips to have their own satisfactory music video tributes. They all live life how they want to--whether or not it's a good thing or a bad thing. Gow and Zhao might be the only bad ones, though.
Mainly just a tribute to the secondary characters....Teo was a late addition, but he's probably my new favorite of the vid. Simply because he fits the song to a T....
Featured characters: Jet, June, Jeong Jeong, Pakku, Zhao, Teo, Bumi, :Longshot, Smellerbee, and Gow.These are all the secondary characters I REALLY love...as in, every bit of screentime with them is good screentime.
Haru's just in there because he has a ****** side to him. :)
Made this in the afternoon....due to work, though, I didn't have time to submit it, so now it's coming up at four in the morning.
Not sure what's next, but it might be a longer wait, I'm not sure what I'll be able to do.
I OWN NOTHING!!! The clips are from Avatar, the picture is by ravenhpltc24.
Very minor shipping in this.

Katara - She's the Man
Oh. My. God.
You wouldn’t believe the trouble I had with the saving of this video.
First I saved normally and there were huge blank, black spaces. And since I appreciate my viewers (suck-up, that’s me, lol) here I refused to let that happen. So then, I saved it in three separate parts and tried to stick them all together. Again - nil. So I had to go back and make countless versions of it to cut out the blank spots! Aaargh!
Well, background. This is the part where I ramble! Yay! Rambling is fun! (so fun, I’ve started already…)
Someone over on You Tube (I’m sorry if I’ve forgotten your name! Trust me, you were the kick-up that I needed to try this!) suggested to me to try and make a modern trailer, since I seemed to be a bit stuck in historical ones. So I looked around… and found She’s The Man.
Initially, I liked the story plus the trailer was fun - I loved the amount of transitions in it and the effects. So it gave me a chance to explore WMM a bit and see what I could do. There are a few effects in this trailer and I really tried to explore with my transitions -no more fade for me, no siree!
So here’s the trailer and the cast….
Viola/Sebastian - Katara
Duke - Zuko
Olivia -Suki
Dinklage (the Coach) - Jeong Jeong
Justin - Jet
Malcolm - Aang
Gold (the headmaster) - Iroh
Sebastian (the real one) - Sokka
Viola and Sebastian’s father - Hakoda
Monique - Azula
Viola and Sebastian’s mother - Aunt Wu

Sozin's Comet - Believe
<b>Believe by Yellowcard</b>
*EDIT* Okay, I'll warn you now, this is a very down-to-earth video - there are no effecs, so if you're expecting some flashy video with more effects than actual footage, you're going to be highly disappointed. The clips just naturally fit the song, so I didn't feel like I needed to alter them - just strategic placement and some speeding up and slowing down here and there. And just for the record, I don't put in effects just for the heck of it, I put in effects to make the video accent the musical elements of the song or to highlight a part of the clip that fits the lyrics. If I think the clips fit the energy of the song well, I won't alter them. Just because I have effects doesn't mean I'm going to use them. (actually, I have a LOT more that you guys haven't seen yet *evil laugh* ^___^) ANYWAY... on to the actual description:
Wow, the Avatar finale was seriously the most amazing piece of animation I've ever seen. It was so amazing, in fact, that it shattered my creativity block to bits and propelled me to make an entire video in less than five hours. I haven't done that in a long, long, LONG time! O.O This song just fit the finale so well, I only had to do minimal editing. If anything, I had to slow some clips down a little. Funny story about this one, though. I originally bought this song over the winter to make a Naruto video, but yesterday I was on the way to horseback riding and was listening to it and I realized that it is the perfect song for the finale. So I decided to scratch the Naruto video and do a Sozin's Comet one instead. Then today I finished capturing the finale and just sat down and made it. Now if only I could finish the 30-some other videos I'm working on that quickly... XD
I do not own Avatar: The Last Airbender or Believe by Yellowcard. Both are property of their respective owners. This video is entirely fanmade and I'm not making any money off of it.

Catch-A-Firebender
Lots of wonderful firebending fiery-ness.
I know I'm gonna be hated for posting this instead of my Kataang video but it was so much fun to make! I was only focusing on timing on this one so there aren't as many "speshful" effects in this one.
Not really fitting for the characters until you realize - every firebender is a LITTLE bit off their rocker. You'll know what I mean. ;)

I wanted to make this one for forever. Was a real pain to do. Features highlights from Avatar's awesome collection of fight scenes.
