My Soundtrack creation

Anyone desperately looking to kill up to 17 minutes can take a look here:

It's a home movie of my recent to Marco Island, Florida. I edited it with Final Cut Express, and added music with Soundtrack. My primary interest in offering it up here is to invite feedback on the music. I'm no musician, but I think I managed some pretty decent mixtures & edits with Soundtrack.

There are some brief music-less parts, that are of no conceivable interest to anyone not in my family, so feel free to skip past those.

The video features mostly my nieces, Megan (6) & Molly (3), with appearances by my sister and mother. And that's my voice behind the camera.

The Music fit the movie very well! The Only thing i would suggest is transitions from one type of music to the other (like from the guitar to the bongo/shakers) but all in all very well done

I appreciated the fact the music wasn't in your face.Just the right level so as not to annoy me,personally speaking anyway.BTW what cam were you using?

My camcorder is a Sony DCR-TRV103, Digital8 Handycam. It's 3 or 4 years old, but still takes great vid.

After I was done in Soundtrack, I spent some time back in FCE tweaking the relative volume of the vid audio & the music, so the two would never seem to be competing. Guess it came out ok!
