Editing for my Powerade Commercial

 Once I had all my scenes collected, I began editing. I am very glad I took more than one take of each scene because when I was inserting some clips, they didn't fit correctly with the other clips. Some clips were recording in landscape mode and some were recorded in portrait, however I managed to combine the two, to make everything fit. The length of each of my clips were too long and made the total time of my commercial 1 minute and 11 seconds. All of the clips taken where I was exercising were way to long. I had to crop every clip down a couple of seconds to meet the correct time limit of 30 seconds. Next, I decided to apply a filter to the each clip to add an effect for the commercial. After applying the filter, I went to another editing app to  create the Powerade scene and added it into the commercial. After fixing the scenes, I saved the video and opened up a new project to insert the background music. When it came to the song choice, I wanted a certain part of the song at the end of the commercial. The length between the beginning of the song up to the part I wanted to stop at was a little too long for the commercial. It was about 40 seconds long compared to my 30 second commercial. I wanted to keep the beginning of the song and cut a part out the middle, however it didn't work out. I then tried speeding up the song itself and that also did not work out. Lastly, I tried speeding up the whole video to fit the length of the songs. That did not work out. I ended up trimming part of the beginning to make it fit. Although I had complications throughout editing my commercial, I believe the outcome is really good, especially for my first time.
