Making video process

Ok looks easy enough doesn’t It? well it ain’t. took me ages to put together…
The process
First thing was to get a video of the magpie worth showing on here, this took several clips to get what i was after. Next was the tricky part****editing the video"“”. what I wanted to do is add script to run concurrent with the video and add music, this involved using another track above the video so it showed up in the correct part of the video when played back.
Next was inserting vocals in mid video and that was really hard, first downloading a suitable vocal track
Appropriate sound which meant finding and recording a section from a video. This then involved my camcorder against the desktop speaker,
With this on a SD card I could then make another video and just extract the marching cadence you can hear
OK next step was putting the cadence marching track onto the video I was making by taking it off the second video and inserting it in the original one. So I had to break into the music sound part- split it away from the rest- put in the cadence bit and join it all up again

Having done this then sound volume had to be balanced to the music. again diving into the editing site and finding out how to boost sound ,nearly got it right,
So now I had the original video above with the text and the marching cadence where I wanted it.
Lastly was getting the colour as near as possible to what i was seeing through the window.

Whyt did I bother to go through all this? because it was a challenge to see if I could do it.
