1. What We Used To Film Our
Prelim

2. About IMovie
To film our Prelim video we, as a group, chose to use
iMovie. iMovie is a proprietary video editing software
application sold by Apple. It can be used on the Mac and
iOS products such as iPhone, Ipad, Ipad Mini and Ipod
Touch. In 1999 it was released originally bundled with the
first FireWire-enabled consumer Mac Model. iMovie
imports video or photo footage from a hard drive. After
doing that, the creator can edit the photos and video clips
and also add titles, music and effects. Some of the effects
include colour correction and video enhancement tools.
Transitions can also be added such as fades and slides.

3. Why We Choose IMovie
We thought that because our clip was only 30
seconds long, we thought that it would be best to
use this software on one of our group member’s
iPhones. After downloading the app for £2.99 from
iTunes, we were able to play about with it and find
out how it works. The group found out very quickly
that it was really easy to use and had the essential
things we need. For the prelim production process
we only needed the basic of technology and we all
agreed that iMovie gave us what we needed.

4. After Filming Our Prelim
After the filming process, we then played
around with the editing part of iMovie. We also
found out that this was very easy to use. We
added and subtracted transitions like the fades
we had, some of them we had to extend and
some we had to make shorter. When we
watched the final product, we realised how
much iMovie has benefitted us in this process
and we are very glad that we used this
application to complete our prelim task.
