Adding Music to the Project

Just for fun, and to remind you how to apply music, I included the actual Logos Music.aif file that I created to go along with this animated logo sequence.

1.	Press the spacebar to begin playback, if the project is not already playing.
2.	Press Cmd-1 to open the File Browser.
3.	Drag the Logos Music.aif file from the File Browser to the Canvas and release the mouse to import the music into the project.
4.	Play the project in the Canvas to hear the music and watch the ani -mated logos.
5.	Press Cmd-S to save the project with the music.

TIP

It's a good idea to end an animated company logo like this without a transition. That makes the finished animated logo more flexible so it can be applied in other projects, such as the beginning of a promotional piece. Then, when the finished project is imported into an editing system like Final Cut Pro, the editor can add the animated logo to the project with any transition. If you fade out the end of the sequence in Motion, you are limiting the editor's options.
