Picking the Right One

My original idea was to have my film as an old fashioned projection, so it made sense to have a projection sound affect playing over my film. I found this on sound effects under audio on 
i-movie.
I then raided my little sisters CD collection and found Disney's Greatest Hits, after an hour of drifting back to my childhood, i came across two songs called;

Golden Afternoon-Alice In Wonderland (but it had vocals) 
The Sorcerer's Apprentice- Philharmonia Orchestra 

I decided to go for the second one as the first had vocals which i did not want.
Also from watching the YouTube versions of some older Alice in Wonderlands some of the earliest versions seamed to use very instrumental pieces of music. 

My "How To"

The second part of the brief is to create a set of Instructions or a manual which is entitled 'how to'.  Following our lecture from Nigel on hot and Cold Media i have been thinking long and hard about this part and how i could relate it to my video then i thought... its simple my video is on its own a manual and is hot media it has been designed and burnt onto a disk and is now an original copy.  The way in which i have put my images and videos together in i-movieHD is a set of instructions without me telling the computer what i wanted to be done i would still be left with just a set of photos rather then a mini film.  i decided the way in which this was designed and put together and if you gave someone else for original set of images they would do it completely different from me and so my set of instructions is my 'how to'.
