Editing a commercial - I need help

Post by KohrsFilms »

I need help on a project I'm working on. I'm doing a DVD for a friend that showcases his talents as a karaoke host. It's basiclly just a big commercial for him. I've got the main menu, scene selections menu, intro, and the first karaoke song he sings done. The night that I shot the video was also the night of the city wide karaoke finals. I video taped all of the contestants songs in their entirety.

My question is how should I go about editing together all of the contestants? I don't want to use the full songs because that would get really boring really fast. I'm stuck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Just use around aminute of their best part of the song.

Fade from the title of the song and who sung it, to the person singing it.
