"RainyMood"™ Sample
········································

▶ Testing mix with "RainyMood"™ Sample
▶ Using Winamp, 31% Volume was deemed suitable, may add thunder, at this point unsure

▶ 00:20:30.28592 to 00:21:15.28299 is the only spike in volume within the sample
▶ Shaping that portion... (Reduced to 50%)
▶ The sample is 00:34:26.57306 in length
▶ Removed: 00:34:16.92662 to 00:34:26.57306 (Virtual Silence)
▶ New Length: 00:34:16.92662
▶ Copied and pasted, connecting it to itself with a 15 second "Equual-Power"
▶ Copied & Crossfaded 2x to achieve a length of 02:16:22.70649
▶ ("N.Nocturne" is now 02:00:11.15930)
▶ Mixed "Northpoint" onto RainyMood. It ends at 02:00:11.15930
▶ 02:00:11.15930 to 02:16:22.70649 is just rain
▶ [It is 16 min (00:16:11.54719) fade out]
▶ RainyMood sample was reduced in volume -10.00 dB to 31.62% its native volume
▶ Did not care for this volume reduction when played simultaneously in GoldWave
▶ Removed colume reduction and mixed again
▶ ...I regreted this later (Rendered and uploaded twice, 100% volume for RainyMood Sample with this overwhelms
▶ Exported the 02:16:22.70649 File as a 24-Bit, 2116 kbps, Stereo, WAV

VIDEO:
▶ Found a stock green screen chroma
▶ (Native Video Length: 00:01:41.88916)
▶ Cut the green down to (22 sec, 25 FPS) → This was done in Premiere Pro
▶ Trimmed 2 sec from start and finish
▶ (00:00:18:19 was the actual length of the green screen after trimming)
▶ (Trimming was done to remove repeat frames before duplicating the length)
▶ Duplicated 8x times until it was 00:02:29:02
▶ Exported from Premiere Pro and into placed atop a layer (About 2 minutes of the original "Northpoint")
in After Effects
▶ Cut: The Original "Northpoint" Footage + Greenscreen Rain
▶ 00:00:00:00 to 00:00:10:00, saving 00:00:10:00 to 00:02:00:07
▶ Clip is now 00:01:50:06

▶ Trimmed 4 sec (60 FPS) off the start and end of clip
▶ This 8-sec reduction is to avoid "repeat frames"
▶ Clip is now 00:01:42:07
▶ Duplicated the clip 80x times total
▶ Each clip is linked by a 2-sec crossfade

▶ (The clip is intentionally visually identical to Northpoint nocturne with a 50% opacity chroma key green screen of rain, derived from a 22-sec green screen sample)

▶ To make up for the difference between 02:16:09:20 (the video) & 02:16:22:42 (The song length with the 16-Min rain fade-out), an 81st clip was added, trimmed to make the song and video length line up and then allowed it to fade to black over 7 seconds and then ended with a 5-sec 1080, black PNG

Exported:
▶ Frame Size: 1920 x 1080
▶ Profile: Main, Level: 4.2
▶ CBR, 6 Mbps, 60 FPS
▶ Progressive, 16:9 Aspect Ratio
▶ 2.35 Blk PNG Aspect Ratio maintained
▶ (Added another to "hide" the artificial rain above and below the black line)
