Lip sync done

After 11 hours work, the lip syncing is done.  It's not terribly arduous or anything, it's just slow going.  Basically I have to find the part of the music video that matches the part used in the mix and line it up so that the singers lips move in sync with the words being sung.  I only want the bits of video with the band members in it, [unless there was something particularly memorable about the rest of the video].  And I don't need much for each song as there needs to be room for everything else. [movies/TV/etc]

Once again, I'll have a go at briefly explaining how it's done..

In the above shot the Blue track is the master music mix for the final video [that is - All the songs mixed together.]  The track at the bottom is the video I'm wanting to sync up.  The purple track in the middle is the original audio from that video.  All you have to do is line the blue and purple waveforms up so that they'll play at the same time.  Then delete the purple track and you're left with the video playing in sync with the music! 

Now just repeat this process for all the songs in the mix and 11 hours later you're done!

The video now has lots of blank spaces between short clips of music videos.  I now have to go back and fill them in with all the movie, TV, video games and news clips.
