Film - Putting Animation On Our Film Opening

Today, Libby Nancy and myself went to get our memory stick which the I.T technician had been working on to change the format of our animation which would make it compatible with the MAC. We then were able to upload the file onto the computer and transfer it into I-Movie. Once we have placed the animation in the correct place of our film we needed to add a short 10 second clip of music. We had to go back on the PC computers as the MACs are not connected to the internet. We went on youtube and found a suitable clip that would work with our animation. We then put the memory stick into the computer as we were going to use a youtube converter to transfer the clip of music back onto the MAC. Once converted we then put the memory stick back into the MAC computer and uploaded the music clip onto I-Movie. Because the clip that we had wanted was around 1 minute long we needed to trim the clip to make it fit in time with the animation (which is about about 4 seconds long). Once we had trimmed the clip we realised that the other music on the opening had disappeared. We were unable to go back and undo so we just had to trim the music to it would fit with the suicide scene. Once we had sorted out the soundtrack music our film opening was completed. We then put the film onto the memory stick ready to upload onto youtube next lesson.
