Various questions; How to add additional pictures and video to an existing video and how to separate music, effects and dialogue?
Time

That's definitely a lot of questions....so let's begin:

Explosions/rockets can be done in a variety of ways - from simple overlays, to complex cgi type stuff. I'll leave that to someone else to explain in better detail than I.

Editing frames is pretty simple. The way I do it (in Sony Vegas), is to capture/save the frame, and then open it in PaintShop. Then I insert it where I want to replace the frame (either by just overlaying on the track above, or by snipping out the old frame, and putting the new one in the gap).

Now, the tricky bit - The music. The simple answer to your question is No. You could just lower the volume of the original music/sfx track, and have a second track with the new music. BUT, that sometimes sounds crappy.

Or, you could get rid of the old music/sfx track, put the new music on a new track, and then insert appropriate sound effects (on another track) that matches what was there originally.

How do they find these things so damn fast? Is it some sort of automated process?

Yes. When the video is uploaded, they scan it, and if there is any copyrighted material found, depending on the company that is associated with the material, they either put an advert with it, or it is blocked (in some, or all countries).

As an example, many of my videos have Star Wars music, and Sony (SME) puts ads on them. But, Fox will completely block videos.

Although, it can change later on. My 'HothWorld' video was blocked by Universal for a long time, and then was suddenly unblocked.

... how the hell industry wouldn't be able to figure out long term effects or diseases due to new technics or the technologies they use (or spread), notably when they hire specialised scientists to study the whole thing ?...

I didn't know Technics' equipment was dangerous!

I think the drum roll from Holy Grail (when Lancelot is seen running from afar) should be more audible in the scenes where Padme is running toward Anakin.  Otherwise, very funny :)

It's weird, the drum roll sounds fine on my PC but the uploaded version sounds too quiet to me too.  I've noticed it with a few other clips as well (mostly stuff I put in the surround tracks).  I'll make sure it's good when I do a full 5.1 review.

Vimeo may not allow surround channels...only regular stereo?

Apparently, he's been spoking too much LDS.

(In Star Trek IV) her name is Gillian....not Grace.

Gracie is the name of the female whale.
