Editing from 3rd, 4th and 6th March :-)

We recorded our extra sounds to be put on our piece to continue our editing. As all our scenes are in order all we had left to do were the sounds. Once we had all of our footage we ordered them correctly and edited them so they were coherent with the clips on our timeline. After playing the piece through we realised the acoustics were different on some clips compared to others and so had to re-record some and upload them onto the computer to out onto our piece once more.
All of our sound clips had to be split in order to get rid of a muffled, buzzing sound.
We downloaded a piece of music (Broadway) from freeplay.com to play over our piece, as well as our chanting and other sounds. We attempted to edit this with Audacity but it wouldn't work when we tried to upload it onto our footage.

Instead of Broadway, we decided to use a piece called Floatate, an eerie sounding piece consisting of bells. The song was too long for our piece however, so we had to edit it down and make it shorter for it to fit our footage correctly and to make it flow.
As well as being to long, the sound clip was too loud and our chanting could not be heard properly. To rectify this, we need to edit the volume on the clips so that you can hear both pieces comfortably and effectively.
