syncing video clips with audio
I'm fishing for suggestions on how to sync audio and video in iMovie. I have a series of video clips and an audio track, and would like them synced at certain points in time. The sync points are in the middle of the clips, hence Snap to Beat Marker feature is of limited help. The alignment I'm after is:
audio: |-------+------------+----------+----|
clip1: |----------+------|
clip2: |-------+------|
clip3: |----+---------|
The main concern is to sync on the '+', I can adjust the boundaries betwen clips/audio later. Ideally, once the markers are set, I could reorder the clips. I would be happy with temporary gaps in video (to be filled in later), but if that's problematic, I can make sure there's always be enough extra footage to avoid the gaps.
audio: |-------+------------+----------+----|
clip2: |-------+-----|
clip3: |----+---------|
clip1: |----------+------|
gap (potential): |-|
Any suggestions welcome, many thanks!
