Remix #2

Posted by

for this remix, I used a new assignment, the movie song mashup!

I might have interpreted it wrong, but here I’ve tried to combine two songs, Candle on the Water and Safe and Sound. Candle on the water is a complete classic by Helen Reddy from…PETE’S DRAGON. HOLY CRAP, my sister Haley was completely obsessed with that movie. We rented it every single time it was her time to pick what we got to rent from Bullfeathers. So, I know the entire movie by heart, needless to say. Safe and Sound is by Taylor Swift and the Civil Wars. It was in the Hunger Games, which I didn’t actually see. This song is pretty awesome though. Both are about finding love, or being there for someone you love. I hope my mashup accomplished that.

also, went into Movie Maker and added an image so I could put it on youtube. Hope at least one of these options works.

Ok, I ran into copyright problems here too. If this happens to not show up, I really tried to get it to let me do this. [I can email you a copy if you need it].

I already had both songs in my iTunes so I just imported them into audacity from there. Then I clipped the parts I wanted to keep from each song and pasted them onto a new track in the order I wanted them. This part took a really long time because I tried to make sure the respective songs were at least transitioning. I did a lot of highlighting and then expanding the highlighted portion with that awesome little finger tool! [I tried to intersperse the candle with safe as much as possible] . When I got the desired effect, I just exported it as an mp3 and put it on soundcloud! Woohoo! Also, I think it turned out pretty good. Oh, and I went one star over the required seven stars with this assignment.
