Today I am here to talk to you about the Mac film editing software iMovie. iMovie comes free on all Macs and is available on the Macs in the media lab in Smith Library. Any media lab on campus with Mac computers should have this software installed. I am going to go over the basic functions of iMovie in order so you better know what options you have when you start editing your films for this class. Throughout the presentation and towards the end I will have links to many helpful tutorial videos available on the internet. I will also have a link to my email address, so feel free to email me any time if you have issues with your film editing.
You can also import directly from a video recording camera and into iMovies. You can have iMovie automatically select all the footage from the camera or manually choose from different films in your camera.
This is what your newly imported footage is going to look like on your screen.
Once you are ready to edit, you can select the footage from you camera that you want to edit by dragging and clicking over footage. Then you can drag and drop the footage into the box labeled “Project Library.” This is where you will be performing your editing.
Below your editing box are many different options for what you can do to your project. The picture on this slide is great because it will let you know quickly what all of these important functions are. So just real quickly, lets read over these buttons because it will let you know what you can do to your projects. The ones to particularly pay attention to is the buttons on the far right: read these buttons
Next I am going to go over the workflows of how to perform the most popular actions within iMovie. The rest of the presentation I have put detailed slides of how to perform each of these actions, so hopefully you can come back to these slides later on. Read opening paragraphs describing themes.
Similarly to iTunes, iMovie also works very well with iPhoto.

Youtube excepts many types of moving image format, and mpeg4 is what iMovie creates. In case you are using a different version of editing software, please check make sure you are working with the correct file extension.
In order to easily share video, you can upload to Youtube and make your videos private or unlisted (both not found by the public). Read over the difference between the two – but pretty similar as far as I can tell.
Now a days many apple products come with built in video cameras, but these have limited memory and can be shaky. If you would like to rent out equipment, the Media Center rents out equipment for 24 hours to students. We have audio recorders, microphones (these are on order, but will be here soon), and video cameras. We also have tripods to make your cameras less shakey.
