Assemble Your Own Avengers Music Video Remix Kris, May 12, 2012 Aside from a ridiculous amount of Assemble puns, Marvel has a new YouTube channel that allows you to piece together a music video. Like the fan-made commercial for LOST and DVD trailer for Law Abiding Citizen, it supplies you with the materials you need to get your creative juices flowing. Find out more after the jump.

I’d say it closely resembles the old iMovie since it has only one layer of video, but two layers of audio. Don’t think you’re getting any heavy orchestral music to play around with though, this is a straightforward music video with contemporary music. Don’t think you get anything uploaded to your channel either. They take ownership of your work but you still get credited in the title.
