Britney Spears - Hit Me Baby One More Time recreated

For this task, our class had to recreate Britney Spears' music video Hit Me Baby One More Time. Every shot was filmed to imitate the shots in the original video. As the studio recorded track is different used in the video (no sound effects from the beginning exist on the studio recorded track), I had removed the video and kept the audio from the original video clip to match the footage. I had cut the footage to the exact time of the shots from the original video. So from watching the original in the middle window, I was able to see the duration of the shot, and then matched it to the duration of the footage we had taken. This resulted in the footage cutting shots at the same time as it did in the original, replicating it completely with precise timing.

Problems with occurred included the problems with rendering as Final Cut was not writing the audio. As the video was rendered and written, the audio was left unrendered. The solution was to only render the audio and not select 'Both' or 'Video'.
