You got chocolate in my peanut butter! Now there’s Video Mashups. Except this effort is more deliberate. They are making blue-screened films for the explicit purpose of handing it over to amateur mashers, whereas music mashers tend to yoink commercially released songs without the express written permission of said artists. I think it’s a great idea (both mashers, actually). Give amateur filmmakers a chance to experiment with special effects and compositing techniques.

What’s next, real-life mashups? Reorganizing someone’s life for your personal amusement? Oh wait, that’s The Game.
