I'm not making any vid right now, but it's for the future. If you've seen .:VoltagE:., you'll have seen the last stunt with no music

For me, it's the most difficult part of the whole vid

How do you guys go about choosing the right music (length, type)?

How about length issues?

Depends. If it's too lengthy, pick a part of the song that's used a lot, maybe a chorus. And just cut and paste it, and use some editing skills to make it fit in right. Voila, more room for stunts. It's what ATS do sometimes ^_^

i pick a song i like, i dont care if people dont like it. length wise i like 3:30-4:00 minutes long for stunts minus the intro and credits. as what ares said you can chop and edit a song, thats what i did for the intro in gotti.

Yeah just pick what YOU like dude. As far as time length, ya just gotta be able to stretch and squeeze them tunes to work sometimes

Rock, or rap with good beats (I won't give you examples because I'll use rap in my next vid

) and the song should have like 8 or 9 second lyrics before the next beat (take "Dedicated" for example) so you can synch beats, and when you record, just record for like 12 seconds so you can cut off parts you don't want and synch the beats. Crap, I never experimented with this and how come I know about it

@Nightkid: I pick what I like. I told a few people about the soundtrack I was planning to use and they all hated it

@Neo: I'll practice strectching and cutting then

@Kenny: I'll try it, thanks for the advice.

rap? rap is for credits, not main music.

I usually use whatever I have or whatever I get from dave.
