Adding Audio to a Project

MORE INFO

The last step in your demo project is adding music. The project has an overall happy, bubbly, techno feelto fit the mood, I created a simple tune in the Apple Pro application Soundtrack.

Adding audio is as easy as adding any other file to a project. You simply select the file in the File Browser and then drag or click the Import button.

1.	Press Cmd-1 to open the File Browser, or click the File Browser tab.
2.	Locate the Lesson_02 music mix file in the lower pane of the File Browser.
3.	Click the Lesson_02 music mix icon to preview (listen to) the file.
4.	Drag the Lesson_02 music mix icon to the Canvas to import it into the project. A green region representing the audio file appears in the mini-Timeline. All audio files appear as green regions in the Motion Timeline.

Congratulations! You've just completed a motion graphics project with Motion's user-friendly interface.
