Creating my Lip Sync Video

To create my lip sync task, i had to import the video footage from the camera. To do this i used iMovie, once it was imported i could then drag it across to Final Cut to allow us to professionally edit and sync the video with a mp3 track.

We choose to lip sync to Vengaboys - Were going to Ibiza because we thought it would be a fun song to do, to get the song onto the computer we used an online application from ZamZar.com this allowed us to convert the YouTube Vengaboys music video into an MP3 for us to use in Final Cut.

Once the footage and song had been imported into Final Cut we could then begin to edit the video. Rendering originally was going to take over 22 minutes, therefore we decided it would be better to only render the first cut, this would give us some footage to work with without having to wait too long.

Once the footage had finished rendering I then went through the clip to find where the song words begin, once i had found this point I added a marker to both the video and another marker to the MP3 track which allowed me to easily match up the audio.

We picked this song because it had alot of easy to remember words in which meant it would be easer to make in the short space of time which we had. Overall i think its not bad for a practise video, i feel that it could be improved with more different camera shots taken from different angles and more footage to mix in.
