Hi everyone ...
1. How do you keep the original sound-track while adding new scenes into the
clip ... In other words I have some footage of my nephew singing the
Australian anthem ,, and I want to add clips in between of the aussie
scenery while keeping the original soundtrack ...of him singing ...
I think a person can do this type of editing with adobe premier ,,,where you
keep the original soundtrack while adding different scenes.
However I obviously have to keep the sound synchronized ,,,
2. Also when editing a wedding for instance ... when I cut out some unwanted
footage ,,, what is the best way to merge the soundtrack so it doesn't sound
like it's skipping. Should I fade out and fade in on the 2 clips on the
soundtrack??

Thanks..... looking forward to some expert replies ,,,

Put the video into both the video track and the audio track, mute the video
track's audio.

Then anything you clip out of the video track - add that exact same amount
of 'scenery' - and you'll stay in sync.

If you are cutting out and not replacing, split in both tracks at the same
points and delete the same amount. Do a short fade between. Yes, fade out
and in on the audio.

Bonus Tip for everyone:
Don't ever add any overlay titles until you are done editing the video, or
you'll have to go back and move them - they don't stay in sync if the video
moves!
