I filmed them portrait and this was an issue I overlooked. I thought I could just turn the video in Final Cut HOWEVER, because of the wide-screen format that the camera films in and that the editing software works in, it did not work. It was stretched.
The way I decided to conquer this was to layer the screen with multiple versions of the same shot and this would fill out the gaps in the screen. This however meant that I had to adjust and swap around the beginning so I added a bit of film before the music kicks in.
The bit I added was an alarm sound. I decided that I could play with the layers and edit them to follow the sound of the clock, which meant I had to source a sound from the internet and download it.
The only way I could find it to work was to make the alarm sound get faster and eventually flatline like a heart monitor. Unfortunately there wasn't a sound that matched up and sounded like the alarm sound I found so I went ahead and edited it myself using garage band.
I took the original audio and cut just one of the beep cycles. I singled this out and then multiplied it, after this I finally moved them slightly closer to create the quicker cycle. In final cut I manipulated it so it swings from the right speaker to the left speaker.
