Devki and Shreyaa's Lip Sync Task: What's my Name - Rihanna ft Drake

This is our lip sync video that me and my partner created. We decided to pick a song that we knew the lyrics too. We featured in the video and also got a couple of other people to take part too. To put together and edit the sequence we used a programme called Final Cut. It took a bit of time to match the lip syncing with the music track, but eventually we were successfully achieve a final cut.

Born This Way - Lady Gaga (Lyrics)

It doesn't matter if you love him or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up  
'Cause you were born this way, baby

My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
 
There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are
She said, 'cause He made you perfect, babe  
So hold your head up, girl and you you'll go far
Listen to me when I say
 
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby  
I was born this way
 
Don't hide yourself in regret  
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, born this way
 
Ooh, there ain't no other way, baby, I was born this way Baby, 
I was born this way  
Ooh, there ain't no other way, baby,
I was born this way I'm on the right track, baby,I was born this way

Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be
 
Give yourself prudence and love your friends  
Subway kid, rejoice of truth
In the religion of the insecure  
I must be myself, respect my youth
 
A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M I love my life, 
I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah

I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes  
I'm on the right track, baby  
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret,  
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby  
I was born this way

Ooh, there ain't no other way, baby, 
I was born this way Baby,
I was born this way 
Ooh, there ain't no other way, baby, 

I was born this way  
I'm on the right track, baby,

Don't be drag, just be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent  
You're Lebanese, you're orient

Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'Cause baby, you were born this way
