What Is iMovie?
|
|
| iMovie is an easy-to-use digital video editing
application. You can use iMovie to produce movies composed of video clips,
still pictures, audio clips, transitions, and text. In this course, you'll
use a digital video (DV) camcorder to shoot the video clips, connect the
camera to your computer using a FireWire connection, and edit the clips
into a movie. You'll then export the movie back to your DV camera and
to a QuickTime file that you can publish in a presentation or on a Web
page.
iMovie sets up an environment that is user friendly and intuitive.
It uses plain English commands and familiar drag-and-drop actions to
move items around. The Balloon Help feature and the electronic help
system are available if you get confused. This course helps you become
familiar with iMovie at a beginner level.
In this course, you will learn how to produce a short movie that includes
video, still pictures, audio, titles, transitions, and effects. View
