Video Clip: 00:04:42.88871 Removed audio track Selected: 00;03;13;01 to 00;03;18;02 of the 00;04;42;22 Clip is now: 00;00;05;01
Exported (Native FPS is quite low at 23.967) 1920 x 1080
However from what I can tell, this was ok for the snow footage
Exported at the native frame rate which was only one megabit per second. Incredibly low, but this was 1080p. Once again this is a trial run. The goal is to link this 5 Second clip possibly with a half-second 21.5 second Crossfade with no repeat frames which means the actual loot clip will be about four seconds at its shortest.
Re-imported removed 18 frames, or 3/4 of a second from the start and the finish of the previously five second clip after re-importing it into Adobe Premiere Pro
Clip is now: 00:00:03:12 With .75 seconds cut from each end, combined the 3-sec clips with a 1.5 sec., crossfade { no repeat frames :-) }
Linked 27 clips together; tested it with audio & exported the file again to make it more manageable at 00:01:36:00 in length. (Now we'll be dealing with about 40 clips as opposed to 1,200)
Re-imported into Premiere The video clip length is: 00:01:36:00 (Once again, to have no repeat frames, removed 18 frames [.75 seconds] from start and finish of clip) in order to have a 1.5 second crossfade [36 frames] with no "repeat frames".
Tested the 1.5 second crossfade → satisfactory. Added a 8-second fade from black at the start of the clip. This medley will probably be two hours long.
Duplicated clip 103 times and trimmed the 103rd clip; 02:57:58:12
"Tears in Rain" Its original length: 00:02:10.00000 Reduced the tempo to 85% native. Used the FFT algorithm & Goldwave's in-built Oscillator Synthesis in order to *retain* the pitch, while reducing the tempo. (FFT Size: 11, Overlaps: 4x)
New length: 00:02:32.85156 Applied a 20 second, equal-power crossfade, that begins at: 00:02:12.85156 The 'New' "Tears in Rain" Length is now: 00:04:45.70313 → Ready to be put into Medley...
"Joi": Original Length: 00:03:51.02667 Performing volume shaping between: 00:02:04.04034 & 00:03:51.02667 Perform two aggressive rounds. 2nd pass of volume shaping between: 00:00:22.82048 & 00:02:36.67608 One round of volume shaping was sufficient here Duplicated track / link it with itself using a 22nd, equal power Crossfade. Applied a 20 second, equal-power crossfade, that begins at: 00:03:31.02667 The 'New' "Joi" Length is now: 00:07:22.05333 → Ready to be put into Medley...
"Orphanage": Started with a FLAC,16-bit, lossless codec, 44100 Hz Converted to a 24-Bit WAV File & DUPLICATED ("PARENT" & "CHILD" Tracks) "PARENT": Total Length: 00:01:13.00000 Selected: 00:01:07.02975 to 00:01:13.00000 / segment is 00:00:05.97025 in length Clip is now: 00:01:07.02975 "CHILD": (Untouched in length; duplicate of native WAV) Added "CHILD" to the end of the selection via an equal-power crossfade (on the 6-sec shorter) of "itself" (The parent file) Crossfade therefore begins at: 00:00:47.02975 Track (with 1x loop ONLY as of now) is: 00:02:00.02975; up from 00:01:13.00000 Actual Loop: 00:00:33.50193 to 00:01:20.53168 Loop Length: 00:00:47.02975 / Total Length: 00:03:34.08925 One round of aggressive volume shaping sufficed. The track already Loops three times to bring it to the aforementioned total length of 3 & 1/2 minutes or so.
Now... Merging all 3x with 2x crossfades, 20-sec in length (once again, equal-power, at end of selection) Tears in Rain: Inserted "Joi" at: 00:04:25.70313 → Length up to 00:11:47.75646 "Orphanage" inserted at the end of "Tears in Rain" & "Joi" at: 00:11:27.75646 → Length up to 00:15:01.84571 (Did one more pass of [moderate] volume shaping from: 00:11:27.75646 to 00:15:01.84571) Base Loop Length: 00:15:01.84571
