How do I overdub a video with a TV theme tune?

[JeffersLos]

I have a short homemade video of my sons swimming. 

 

I want to overdub the video with the theme tune to Jaws.

 

How do I do this?

 

TIA.

I use Shotcut its free and an excellent platform. https://shotcut.org/download/

I use the filmora software cited above.  However, there is a learning curve.... Maybe Shotcut is quicker to get the hang of it...

I have used http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/ and https://www.audacityteam.org/ in the past, but it's a bit tricky.

 

I used it to get rid of some very bad language (from me) from this phone video:

About a week ago my son started learning about video editing and he's using VideoPad by nch, made some nice little simple vids so far but there is a learning curve.

 

Also if you're new to video editing and just want to add some brief music or text to a vid, it's fast and easy to upload if you have a youtube account, simply go to your channel and look for either the "manage videos/create" on a PC, or if using a smartphone look for the "+" at the bottom of the youtube screen and follow the simple instructions to add/edit.  Have fun.

If you shot the video on a phone, then there may already be software on it for editing that video.

 

e.g. On iPhone there is iMovie

format factory 

 

it is free by the way.............

 

Win ????

Or if you are not into free amateurish stuff, you could always try Adobe Premiere, Apple Final Cut Pro, Sony Vegas Video...

It depends which platform you are using, also where you got the music from and how you want to share it. 
 

you can virtually guarantee a copyright strike on YouTube if you just grab the film soundtrack and try to share it there.

 

I use LumaFusion and LumaTouch on my phone and tablet, there are many guides available. 
 

here are 3 examples from a very simple one to a longer one that got effects transitions speed changes and a few other bits.
