Edit your video content.
Most computers now come with a pre-installed video editor, such as Windows Movie maker and iMovie. With the video editing software you can piece together your very own movie and add a music sound track. You can use any video content you want, from videos you have already imported onto the editor to movies you have downloaded from the Internet.
Instructions
1. Launch your video editor. If using Windows, click the "Start" button followed by "All Programs," then select your video editing software. If using a Mac, click the "iMovie" star icon found on your dock.
2. Click the "File" tab followed by "Import." Select the video clip you want to add to the video editing software. It will appear in a small library at the side of your program.
3. Select "File," "Import" again if using Windows and select the audio file you want to import. If the music is on a CD, insert the CD, select the CD icon and choose the track you want to use with the video clip. If using a Mac, click the sound note icon on the right of the screen then select the audio track you want to import.
4. Click-and-drag the video file to the timeline in the video editor. The movie starts at the beginning of the timeline.
5. Click-and-drag the audio track down to the timeline. It appears on the audio track portion of the timeline. Press the "Play" button to listen to your music in relation to the video clip. If you want to change the location of the audio file, click-and-drag it on the timeline to adjust its location.
6. Select the "Export" option in your video editor. When the export window appears, title the video, select a location to save the file to, then click "OK." The audio and video clip are now merged into one and exported to your computer.
