Sometimes finding exactly the right ‘feel’ music for a video is the most fun part of video editing, and other times I dread it. Because I already know that it’s going to be impossible to find music that won’t be too depressing, won’t be too happy, too distracting, irritating – in short, that won’t even be noticed that much, but makes the video just a bit better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this case, I had a bunch of close-up footage of chameleons – really colorful ones, close up – and other small, furry, slimy or scaly creatures – and just wanted to highlight the animals. Not that there was any background dialogue or noise in the footage. But the imagery was the point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After hours and hours of listening to options, considering what I might be able to produce on my own, and weighing the option of no music at all, this is what I came up with. It would be great if a lot of people read this blog and sent suggestions for different\/better music…but for now I’m stuck with “almost right.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enjoy the chameleons!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
