Screenshot. This is from a recent job I did for a client. Was working on a video, writing and recording sync music for the intro and outro of the video. I imported the audio file of the music I wrote into iMovie. It is a separate file that will go under the visuals that are laid out in a horizontal format when editing, after you import them from your own personal files. Once editing is completed, both visuals and audios are integrated, making the whole project cohesive and ready to be sent back to the client.
Here is a long shot , a visual representation of an an audio file where you can see a jagged line indicating peaks in the volume of the music I wrote/produced/recorded for the session. I also like to include fades on the beginning and on the end of the tracks, to created a feeling of dynamics, peaks and valleys of sorts, not to overpower the visuals, but to underpin it, serve the visuals. It should not fight for space with the visuals, but complement them, work in hand in hand. Will write more about it at a later date, but until then, have a great weekend!

Thanks for sharing this, Rich Terdoslavich. Can you use iMovie to separate music/sound from videos and films, like if the music or sound was messed up and you wanted to remove it?

Hi, Maurice. Yes, you can separate audio track from visual. I had to do that on a job, because the video footage had background sounds and wanted to have a voice over on those visuals. So, I had to do those edits to make everything work. You can have a voice over overlap certain visuals to make it cohesive/unified. Had to add my music on the title designs and add the fades before the visuals kicked in. Thank you for your question! All the best
