* "Teenage Dream" by Music/KatyPerry is frequently used for any relationship involving teenage characters. "Last Friday Night" is a go-to song for depicting strange situations, HilarityEnsues, or BigLippedAlligatorMoment scenes in the canon by implying the characters were intoxicated while it happened.

In a nutshell, a basic concept is to take recorded footage from your favorite movies or TV shows, set all these edited scenes to your favorite music (maybe add some FanArt or subtitling) put it all together in a video editor on your PC, then upload it to any video sharing site online and wait for awesome comments to pour in! Website/YouTube is a popular choice.

* Music/{{Sabaton}} has a veritable cottage industry of Website/{{YouTube}}rs making music videos of their HorribleHistoryMetal songs from various film, TV, and video game clips. It started as early as 2008 when a Polish fan made [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivgCD31iKyg a video]] for the song "40:1"[[note]]about the Battle of Wizna at the start of UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, where a regiment of 700 Polish soldiers held off a German army numbering 40,000 for three days[[/note]] that went viral, which singlehandedly netted the band a [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff borderline fanatical Polish fandom]]. After it was [[ScrewedByTheLawyers taken down for copyright infringement]], [[ApprovalOfGod Sabaton re-uploaded it to their own channel]]. It even led to Polish filmmaker Jacek Raginis, a descendant of the Polish Army captain from the song, contacting the band with an offer to film [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epeQwq-aYV0 an official video]] (he also later filmed the video for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzeNBRbWXpI "Uprising"]]).

* In a distant age, a FanVid was created. Forged from ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' video and Creator/PeterJackson's ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' trailers' audio, it now passes from master to master throughout Website/YouTube. It is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ql83ee47HE "The Lord of the Yen"]]. ''It wants to be found''.

* Extremely elaborate anime Opening/Ending parodies, such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgBG6Ff7hwY this example]] (which mixes ''Anime/CodeGeass'' and ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''), seem to be fairly popular among users of the Japanese video hosting site Nico Nico Douga. English-speaking viewers quickly caught on, and now whole Website/YouTube channels exist that are dedicated to uploading them for all to see.

* Another early progenitor of the modern FanVid: ''Fighter Fling,'' created by none other than the F-14 Tomcat fighter squadrons of the '''[[UsefulNotes/YanksWithTanks United States Navy]]'''. That's right, even the hotshot ''Film/TopGun'' types were into this sort of thing! From 1989 to 2004 (when the Tomcat's retirement was announced), the squadrons would produce one long yearbook-like video of Tomcats and their crew acting badass or [[BunnyEarsLawyer Bunny-Eared]] set to whatever music was popular at the time. Every so often, clips or entire Fighter Fling videos appear on Website/YouTube, but as they are no less copyright violations than the average modern-day FanVid, they are often taken down due to DMCA.
