Part

This
is
the
import
window.
1.
In
the
lower
left
corner
you
will
see
a
slider
that
allows
either
Automatic
or
Manual
import.
Automatic
mode
will
rewind
the
tape,
import
all
the
video,
and
then
rewind
the
tape
when
it
is
finished:
iMovie
does
all
of
the
work
for
you!
If
you
would
like
to
manually
control
what
footage
is
imported
and
have
the
ability
to
fast-‐forward
and
rewind
through
the

select

For
this

we'll
leave
the

at

Prior
to
starting
the
import,
note:
the
camera's
battery
should
be
well
charged
before
starting
this
process
or
the
camera
should
be
plugged
in
so
there
is
ample
power
to
complete
the
import.
This
is
the
Save
window.
1.
On
the
Save
to:
drop-‐down
list,
choose
where
you
want
to
store
the
imported
video
(for
ease
of
use
choose
Macintosh
HD).
2.
Create
a
new
name
for
your

3.
Make
certain
that
the
"Split
days
into
new
events"
box
is
unchecked.
4.
Analyze
for
stabilization
after
import:
Camera
shake
is
a
problem
when
shooting
video
without
a
tripod.
iMovie
can
analyze
your
video
and
eliminate
some
of
this
shakiness.
iMovie
can
analyze
the
video
when
you
import
it
(a
time-‐consuming
process
when
you're
waiting
to
edit
your
video)
or
iMovie
can
analyze
the
clips
only
when
they
are
actually
used
in
a
project
(less
time-‐consuming,
but
it
does
interrupt
the
editing
process).
Make
your
decision
before
importing.
5.
Click
Import
and
let
iMovie
go
to
work.

When
the

segment
is
finished
importing,
iMovie
will
indicate
the
process
is
complete
that
an
amount
of
video
was
imported.
Click
OK.
This
will
move
you
back
to
the
main
iMovie

and
allow
you
to
begin
editing
your
new

Step

Add
Video
Clips
to
the
Project
Viewer
Click
on
one
of
the
clips
in
the
Event
Viewer
in
the
bottom
half
of
the
iMovie
interface.
A
yellow
border
will
appear
on
the
clip.
At
each
side
of
this
border
there
are
two
vertical
bars
(1.).
Use
these
bars
to
select
the
exact
footage
you
want
to
use
in
your
project.
With
the
footage
selected,
drag
the
selected
portion
into
the
Project
Viewer
by
clicking
inside
the
yellow
border
and
dragging
the
selected
portion
up
to
the
Project
Viewer.
• If
you
want
the
whole
clip,
stretch
the
yellow
border
to
both
the
left
and
right
sides
of
the
clip.
• If
you
want
different
parts
of
a
single
clip,
use
the
yellow
bars
to
identify
and
then
drag
each
portion
separately.
Once
a
section
of
a
clip
has
been
used,
an
orange
bar
appears
near
the
bottom
of
the
clip;
however,
any
used
portion
of
a
clip
can
be
used
again
and
again.
Step
7.
Reorder
Clips
in
the
Project
Viewer
In
the
project
viewer
you
can
get
the
same
yellow
border
by
clicking
on
the
video
clips.
Organize
entire
clips
by
selecting
a
clip
and
then
simply
dragging
and
dropping
the
clip
in
the
position
you
want.
You
will
notice
a
vertical
green
line
in
the
position
the
clip
will
appear.
You
cannot
drop
a
clip
on
top
of
another
clip.
1.
One
quick
way
to
get
rid
of
a
portion
of
video
is
to
select
the
clip
in
the
Project
Viewer,
use
the
yellow
frame
to
select
the
part
to
delete,
then
click
Edit
>
Delete
Selection.
Be
sure
you've
selected
the
part
you
want
to
delete,
not
the
part
you
want
to
keep.
To
split
a
clip
use
the
yellow
border
and
select
the
portion
of
the
clip
you
want
to
split.
Go
to
Edit
menu
and
click
Split
Clip.
Splitting
a
clip
allows
you
to
put
a
transition
between
two
sections
of
the
same
clip.
If
the
yellow
border
touches
the
right
or
left
end
of
a
clip,
the
clip
will
be
split
into
two
clips;
if
it
does
not
touch
one
of
the
two
edges,
it
will
be
split
into
three.
If
Edit
>
Split
were
applied
to
the
example
here,
it
would
be
split
into
two
separate
clips.

Make
Adjustments
to
Individual
Clips
Once
all
your
clips
are
trimmed
and
in
the
desired
order,
you
can
make
adjustments
to
individual
clips.
From
the
tool
bar,
you
have
the
following
three
choices:
1.
Add
a
voice
over
(narration)
to
the
selected
clip.
2.
Crop
a
clip.
(This
is
not
the
same
as
trimming.
Trimming
cuts
the
ending
and
starting
points.
Cropping
allows
you
to
select
only
a
portion
of
the
video
image
itself.)
3.
Show
the
Inspector.
(This
gives
you
access
to
video
effects,
speed
effects,
brightness,
contrast,
and
audio
controls
for
the
clips
native

Step
8.
Add
a
Voice-‐Over
to
a
Clip.
The
first
icon
is
the
voice-‐
over
option.
Click
the
microphone
icon
from
the
tools
and
this
box
appears.
1.
Choose
your
preferred
microphone
from
the
drop-‐
down
list.
2.
Check
the
input
level
and
adjust
accordingly.
(Always
speak
into
a
microphone
to
test
it,
don't
blow!)
3.
Adjust
noise
reduction
and
turn
on
or
off
voice
enhancement
as
needed.
4.
If
you
want
the
clip's
native
audio
to
play
while
you
record,
check
this
box;
if
you
do
not
want
the
clips
audio
to
play,
leave
the
box
unchecked.
5.
iMovie
tells
you
to
select
a
clip
to
begin
recording.
You
can
begin
recording
at
any
spot
in
any
clip;
simply
click
at
the
point
in
the
clip
you
want
to
begin
recording.
Once
a
clip
is
selected,
a
count-‐down
timer
will
count
down
from
3
and
the
recording
will
begin.
NOTE:
recording
will
begin
and
continue
across
all
following
clips
until
stopped.
Stop
the
recording
by
clicking
anywhere
in
the
Project
Viewer.
Once
stopped,
iMovie
add
the
audio
to
the
clip
automatically.
To
delete
a
clip
and
re-‐record,
select
the
clip
(it's
a
purple
bar
under
the
clips)
and
hit
the
delete
key.

The
second
icon
is
the
Crop

choose
it
and
iMovie
will
instruct
you
to
select
a
clip
to

Not
only
can
you
crop,
but
you
can
"fit"
the
video
clip
to
the
screen
or
apply
"Ken

effects
(1.).
(Truthfully,
I
would
not
use
any
of
these
tools
on
digital
video
clips
recorded
from
a
video
camera;
I
would
use
them
on
still
pictures
imported
from
iPhoto
for
use
in
your
video.)
In
the
example
here,
the
Crop
tool
is
selected.
Note
the
fine
green
border
around
the
entire
clip
window.
Place
your
mouse
over
the
lower
left
corner
(2.)
and
the
mouse
turns
into
a
"+".
Click
and
drag
the
green
border
to
"crop"
the
video
image.
(Note:
this
will
likely
result
in
reduced
video
quality.)
To
see
the
results
of
the
crop,
click
the
Play
button
(3.).
Should
you
need,
the
video
can
be
rotated
using

In
this

If
you
drop
the

at
a
specific
point
in
your

will
play
from
that
point

to
the
end
of
your
movie
or
the
end
of
the

less.
To

you
with

and
most
of
the
same
options
available
on
the
video
inspector
are
available
on
the

inspector.
Step
13.
Add
Still
Digital
Photos
Sometimes,
you
want
to
add
a
still
photo
to
your
video
rather
than
live-‐action
digital
video
clips.
Adding
photos
is
easy
if
your
photos
are
stored
in
iPhoto.
Locate
and
click
the
show/hide
photo
button
and
browse
for
the

you
would
like
to
place
in
the
project.
Drag
and
drop
the
photo
into
the
Project

window
at
the
point
in
your
video
where
the

should
appear.
(You
can't
drop
it
on
a

it
has
to
be
dropped
at
the
start
of
the
video,
between
two
clips,
or
at
the
end
of
the
video.)
Once
there,
clicking
the

once
and
choosing
the
"gearbox"
icon
in
the
lower
left

of
the

Add
Titles
You
can
add
text
to
your
video
clips
quite
easily
with
iMovie.
You
have
the
option
of
having

or
on
top
of

in
your

of
the
iMovie

Select
the
title
you
want
and
drag
it
into
your
project
timeline.
If
you
place
the
title
at
the
start
of
your
video,
at
the
end
of
your
video
or
between
individual
clips,
the
background
window
will
appear.
Select
an
appropriate
background.
If
you
place
the
title
directly
onto
your
clips
then
the
title
will
appear
directly
over
the
video.
There
are
three
locations
on
each
clip
a
title
can
be
dropped.
Each
is
highlighted
in
blue
when
you
drag
a
title
on
a
clip.
You
can
drop
the
title
so
that
it
appears
only
on
the
first
third
of
the
clip
(only
the
first
third
of
the
clip
is
highlighted
in
blue),
you
can
drop
it
so
that
it
appear
on
the
entire
clip
(the
entire
clip
is
highlighted
blue),
or
you
can
drop
it
so
that
it
appears
on
the
last
third
of
the
clip.
In
any
case,
when
a
title
has
been
dropped,
it
appears
as
a
blue
bar
across
the
top
of
the
clip.
Double-‐click
the
blue

clip
to
show

where
you
can

of
your
titles
by
clicking
in
the
appropriate

in
the
Preview

allow
you
to
change

some
others
do
not.
