I want to hear what you think of this:

I am slowly putting a roleplay, pvp video together. I have been watching some videos and I have come across a personal dilemma.

I notice we see 2 types of videos often.

1. Excellent editing , the film looks great.

2. Really low editing effort put in , raw pvp ownage.

I want to start with a bang in the first camp.

The dilemma I am in: I had planned during the intro and through the first video I was going to run clips of things that have influenced me over the years as a player. (such as small overlays during fights) From anime, to street fighter clips. Yet I am hesitant, on the one hand I want to give nods to these things on the other, some of the work then is clearly not my own.

Would anime/ culture references mixed into a video *well* be acceptable to you personally? Or does it need to be from start to finish all my own work?

Is an example I can offer about what I'm talking about.

It's your film. You get to decide what to do with it. Sometimes you have to take a risk, which can make you a legend or an [EXPLICIT]. To me, it sounds like a nice idea. They (the public) would get a good idea what to expect from this film so they wont be disappointed at the end of the film.
Although a too quick montage at the beginning could scare them away.
