[2] The three founding members, Phillip Chbeeb, Di Moon Zhang and Brandon Harrell, formed I.aM.mE after Marvelous Motion Crew disbanded.
Three additional members, Chachi Gonzales, Emilio Dosal, and Džajna "jaja" Vaňková, joined later after an audition.
Di "Moon" Zhang posted many of his tutting[clarification needed] videos onto YouTube before he met Phillip "Pacman" Chbeeb and created Marvelous Motion Crew, which also included Brandon "747" Harrell.
As the main choreographers, they led the team to much success, winning first place at "The Show", a Dallas competition hosted by JabbaWockeeZ, the San Diego–based winners of ABDC's first season.
Taking the crew to new levels, Marvelous Motion traveled to California on their first major competition, receiving third place at "World of Dance: Pomona" under the direction of Moon.
They became the first mixed gender crew and also the first group from the South to win, ending the Western dominance of previous ABDC seasons.
D-Trix called them "clever" and that they "took tutting to the next level": the crew added some Rubik's-cube shapes and brought something new to ABDC.
Lil Mama liked how the crew showed illusions and visual effects but mixed it with solid dance choreography.
JC Chasez liked their style and was entertained, but wanted the crew to expand and dance to other parts of stage, instead of just the center.
Their challenge in the third week was to create a futuristic machine, while performing to a mastermix of the Black Eyed Peas' song "Meet Me Halfway".
The crew performed a routine which met the challenge and highlighted member Olivia "Chachi" Gonzales as a major character.
All top four crews blasted the seventh week with a routine performed with Nicki Minaj's challenge, based on her alter-egos.
JC told the crew that they performed a risky routine, but cleanly finished it, although he disliked it when he saw I.aM.mE look around the stage and check positions with others.
Phunk Phenomenon was spirited and had wowed the judges, but I.aM.mE rose to the top two to battle against ICONic Boyz for the title of America's Best Dance Crew.
I.aM.mE joined the competing teams for ABDC Season 8, America’s Best Dance Crew All-Stars: Road to the VMAs, in 2015.
Jaja is under contract with So You Think You Can Dance for its 12th season, and Chachi decided to focus on her solo projects, thus missing I.aM.mE's rehearsals.
I.aM.Me ended up in the Bottom 2 of episode 4, together with Quest Crew, who ultimately won the competition I.aM.mE finished in fourth place of Season 8.
