Robin Hood Music Video

[Clara Oswald]

Persephone inspired me (though I can't hold a candle to her at it) to try to make a video. Okay so this is my first attempt - it uses clips from episode one of the BBC Robin Hood show and is music by The Juliana Theory.

As said several times now love it

What software did you use? I may have to attempt this (full of Sir Guy of Gisborne of course)

I used Windows Movie Maker cause that is all I have and that's was Persephone said she used. It's very basic but it will get the job done. I'd love to have something that let you split the audio tracks apart though. There was more dialogue I wanted to include but the underscore got in the way. It also kept inserting almost flash frames of other footage randomly in between shots and it did my head in - I think there's still one in there I couldn't get out.

You should check out Persephone's vids on You Tube - she really has the transitions and effects down. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=alltoofair

Do you want to split the audio track of the song or the clip? Or do you just want the audio from the clip to be louder than the song?

As for the flash footage, all you have to do is trim the clip at the beginning and the end before you put it into the timeline, and you won't have those blips.

BTW, fantastic video for your first one! Really, it was so good! I commented on youtube.

Thanks

I did trim the beginnings and ends but for some reason I still got flash frames * shrugs *

I wanted to split the audio track from the source footage into one track for the dialogue and one for the background music (so in effect I could remove the underscore from the footage). And still have the second audio track. I turned up the volume on the bits of dialogue as high as it would go.

Hmm that's strange that you still have that flicker. I'm not sure what's going on with that.

As for the audio stuff, i'm not sure if there's a way you can do that. Well atleast I haven't come across anything. I'll ask a few of my friends though.

 

[Clara Oswald]

Yeah I don't think you can do that with WMM. I think you'd need a more advanced program.
