The ‘Timeline’ mode
At the bottom of the screen, switch to ‘Timeline’ mode by selecting it from the drop down menu
Now you can drag your mp3 file to the audio section below your pictures
If your audio file is much longer than your video section, you can either continue to drag down more pictures to make a ‘repeat’ pattern, or simply click on each of your pictures and stretch them out using the arrow feature
