• Delete the working movie track in your GarageBand file and drag in your new high quality movie.

• Make sure Garage Band plays the movie with your Garage Band music.

• Open Reason and make sure Rewire is working.

• Under the Share menu, select Export Movie.

• Open the resulting Quicktime file with Quicktime and make sure everything is working.

• Create a new folder with your name as the title.

Option #2:

• Delete the working movie track in your GarageBand file.

• Make sure Garage Band plays your Garage Band music.

• Open Reason and make sure Rewire is working.

• Under the Share menu, select Export Song, make sure the COMPRESSION button is unchecked.

• Open iMovie and drag the AIF file you created above onto your movie.  You can move the music around once it is imported so it matches your movie properly.

Have a great afternoon everyone and I will see you on Monday.

This is the checklist I will be using during your interviews the first week back.  I will be checking the arrangement track for the whole song, and the instrumental tracks for the first 24 bars.  Please use it to make sure you haven't forgotten anything.
