I've never seen a "recommended" method. For me, it's a learning process of how many times I've gone back to change things.
I always put the audio/music in first. Most everything I do is timed with music.
Then I add the voice over. I also tweak the volume of the music so it's not louder than the voice.
I start with where I want the images to go in sequence to fit with lyrics of a song.
Then I go back to the start and determine which transitions I want and where.
Then I start over and sync the transitions with the beat of the music.
Then I start over and add titles and other text.
Then I add PiP (I have yet to use any particle stuff).
Then I start over and add effects. Note: I don't use the FX track. I add effects directly to the image/video. This allows me to add multiple effects.
I hope this helps,
Joe
