Following my storyboard, I added archive footage of examples of sexist music videos within my documentary to align with expository documentary conventions and support my narration with evidence. The music videos I added were taken from the most popular suggestions of controversially sexist music videos within my questionnaire, in order to effectively target to my audience through music videos which are relevant to them, and also included sexually explicit music videos which I felt were more sexually liberating rather than sexist to follow the line "Some would say this has liberated modern artists by allowing freedom and pushing the boundaries of creative expression". Therefore the music videos I added are;
- Beyonce 'Partition'
- Nicki Minaj 'Anaconda'
- Miley Cyrus 'Wrecking Ball'
- Lil Wayne 'Love Me'
- Redfoo 'Literally I Can't'
From researching how to download music videos, I tested keepvid.com and savevideo.me, and found that savevideo was the most effective.

Next I imported the videos to my Final Cut Pro project, trimmed them, and detached their audio to overlay my voiceover. However as I'm criticising the lyrics of 'Literally I Can't' in an individual section, I left kept this audio and researched ducking tutorials for Final Cut Pro so that the transition between my diegetic/ voiceover narration and the song gradually builds for a clear, smooth and flowing effect, using these resources;

| Ducking my audio by lowering the height of the waveform from at the beginning and end of the clip, creating a fading in/ out audio effect and ducking my voiceover which overlays the quieter fades. |
