Many years ago somebody noticed that Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd synced to The Wizard Of Oz movie, and rumours began that Pink Floyd did that on purpose. I don't know if they did, or not, but when I tested it out myself it only seemed to work with the PAL version of the movie. So the NTSC version doesn't work very well at all, but the NTSC version is the one that most people watch. I think that the credibility of the sync is hurt by the NTSC sync, and because nobody can see the match they tend to think that drugs were involved in seeing anything match up. Not true with the PAL sync, it works very well, and my tip is that you swap tracks 3, and 4 around for an even better sync on the PAL version.
I find my own movie syncs however, and they work better than the Wizard Of OZ movie to Pink Floyd.
A sync found by me is most likely to be a coincidental sync, but that makes them more amazing to me. I sometimes wonder if there is some sort of fractal taking place between the music, and the movie, so that the brain works in patterns.
With a movie music sync you should use music played in its track sequence as much as possible, because the coincidences are the important part. You don't change the music speed, or move the tracks too much, you leave them easy to re-create. The whole movie should sync up for the sync to be really exciting.
For example 'Nothing But The Sucker Punch'... Nothing But The Sucker Punch uses music that tells the same story as the movie...
1/ The first track 'Titanium' is about a girl who can survive anything that is thrown at her, and that is similar to the opening sequence to the movie.
2/ 'Turn Me On' is about a doctor who will rescue the girl, and medication. The movie is about a doctor, and medication, and the girl needs to be rescued.
3/ 'Falling To Pieces' The girl is in deep trouble, and falling apart. 'A shot in the dark' are the lyrics, and it was a shot in the dark that got her into this mess.
4/ 'Without you' The girl needs people, and objects that help her, and without them she can't escape. There is a key around the doctor's neck that she needs, and that key is in close up during the words 'I will never win this game without you, without you'
5/ 'I can only imagine' Has multiple lip syncs, and action timings. The kiss from the Chef to the word 'Kiss' is how you test that your timing is right to the whole movie.
6/ 'Play Hard' Totally syncs to everything that happens. The actions, the words, the story that is told in the song is exactly what you see in the movie.
7/ 'Wild One' The main character is a girl gone wild, fighting for her mental well-being.
8/ 'Just One Last Time' You skip this track the first time around.
9/ 'In My Head' This makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up, because it is a magical coincidence, and you have to see it to know what I mean... it is AMAZING!!!
10/ 'Where Them Girls At?' At this point a man meets the girl, and he could ask where the other girls are. It isn't the exact story in the movie, but it would be allowed in this situation, and works 100%.
11/ 'Little Bad Girl' Works 100% all the way through the song, probably better than the movie itself.
12/ 'Sweat' It's a bit of fun looking for lip syncs to this part.
13/ 'Crank It Up' Tells the story almost exactly right. The girl has cranked up the action with her dancing, and has worked out how to escape. She needs the Key, and the song is about car keys.
14/ 'Nothing Really Matters' It tells the story that during her dance performance the girls can get the things that they need, because nothing really matters in the club. That is the correct storyline for the movie. Here I go dancing again are words that match the sequences.
15/ 'Every Chance We Get We Run' The girls want to run away from the Asylum which is also a club. They run towards the enemy. There is a war the buildings are destroyed, they need a map to escape. There are sound effects in the song that match explosions, and gun fire. The music is still matching the movie after all these tracks.
16/ 'Sunshine' Now we get a bunch of action sequences that are timed to beats in the song. The words in the songs stop just for all of this action.
17/ 'Lunar' More action, more action music.
18/ 'What the F...' These parts just lead up to 'Toy Story'
19/ 'Metropolis'
20/ 'The Alphabeat'
21/ 'Toy Story' A very strange song that works in a very strange way. They need to steal a lighter off a man, and you hear crackling like fire to represent the lighter. It all times nicely, but you really need an accurate start to play your playlist to get this exactly right.
Then back to 'Titanium' with a titanium dragon fitting all of the words.
Later robots explode with sparks, and look like fireworks to a song including sparks, and fireworks.
So that explains how a sync looks, and sounds, but you have to see the timings yourself.
