Making short music video
Hi All,
I am Nitin a software
engineer. Music is my passion and I love to sing. I have recorded some songs
recently. Now I want to make some videos around my composed songs with some
theme in mind.
For this I will be recording videos with different views. One
with myself actually singing the song plus the actor in the theme.
My
idea is to finally merge and mix all the videos and overwrite the audio to make
the complete video.
Need your help here. What is the best software
(available on internet) that I can use to achieve this.
regards,
NiTiN

Answer:
A good music video is always the one which shows a
story with shots of the singer lip singing an acceptable, rather common thing.
The story told in the music video got to be related with the lyrics. Of course
it sounds obvious, but some new directors ruined their music videos by opting
for the opposite route.
I would suggest you to write the script of the
music video first focussing on what would look great on screen while the song is
being played. This way you won't be shooting different scenarios for the same
video, which can look unprofessional if some certain techniques are not taken
care of, and then you will not have to compile different parts of your different
videos shot to make a single video.
No doubt you will need a good editing
software and the editing software applications suggested to you above are great
ones. But i guess you wanted to know of the best editing software that is
available on internet for free. In that case, i am not aware of any such
software, but Microsoft Windows XP comes with a free editing software which is
suitable for basic level editing. See if it has all you want to use out of a
free editing software.
Hope that helps.
