Filmmaker - I Made a Film, What's next?
| So you made a film and now question what the next step is. Purchasing video and audio editor would be your best bet. The right software will help you edit and score your scenes to perfection. Audio/video editing software makes a huge difference when deciding what music to incorporate into your scenes. I have found that the most helpful video editing software is Final Cut Pro. You are able to do just about any kind of editing possible with Final Cut Pro and the newest version seems to be enhancing stability, speed, and productivity. The kicker is that SmartSound has created an audio plug-in so you can easily score your scenes with their product Sonicfire Pro and use their huge royalty free music library. Together these software programs are an amazing one-two punch. You get the best features from a video editor with Final Cut and the best features from an audio editor with Sonicfire Pro 5. Having both of these programs will put you into an elite tier of video editing capabilities. True professionals use both of these software for the best quality production. After obtaining the software above, the next step will be to score your scenes with the right music. Finding cheap royalty free music is not hard at all. But finding great quality music with amazing versatility and at a great price is another story. I recommend staying away from "needle drop" music. Needle drop simply means that you pay a fee every time the music is played with the project you are using it for.. Believe me, the fees add up.. Quickly!! Royalty free music with a one time fee associated with it is best. Once you purchase the music it is yours forever and you are allowed to use it with as many projects you want. Purchase by album and even by track is available. Albums range anywhere from $99.95 to $200 including about 10 tracks a per album. Tracks are usually sold at $10 to $20 a piece. If you have a projects constantly in the works, its probably best you buy an album. A couple albums of all different genres of music should keep you busy for awhile. SmartSound has the most afforadable and best quality stock music I have seen in any music library across the internet. A royalty free music library may be the most important weapon in your video editing arsenal besides video editing software itself. The music keeps your scenes intense and fresh in the minds of all who watch. Pick up the best stock music at Smartsound.com. They provide a massive music library that is composed by musical professionals only. Smartsound.com also provides their award winning Sonicfire Pro software free to download and try along with 5 free music tracks. |
