Light and Time - After effects water experiment

As part of the experimental stage I made this video in After effects.  I originally filmed two different parts of a small waterfall near to where I live for about 20 seconds (each video).  I then put them into After effects and changed the hue/saturation to make it a purple colour and played with the curves to darken it a little.  I also put a turbulent displace effect on them. 

For the second part of the video, I took the sound of the waterfall from the original video and used the audio mixer to sync it in with the music track.  This part was done using Premiere Pro.

The reason for me doing this experiment was for me to get more familiar with adding effects to video using After effects, as it is not a piece of software I use often.  I also wanted to experiment with sound by seeing if I could have the sound of the water in sync with the music track.

I am happy with this experiment, as I feel I achieved what I set out to do.
