This was a great starting video for beginners. I just recorded an old VHS tape on my computer from the 1980s and now I have to edit it. I'm sure there are a lot of trial and error steps to follow, but your video gave me the basics. I will watch your others, too. Thanks a lot for recording this.

I very much enjoyed your calm demeanor and your concise descriptions without being overwhelmed with information. I love I-movie but don't use it often enough to remember all of the buttons and shortcuts. Your tutorial is a great refresher. Thanks.

Meredith, I've watched quite a few of these videos. Your teaching style is fantastic. thank you for being thorough and slowing down. Great Job!

thanks so much for breaking it down and making it simple for me to understanding! I struggle with tech and this was an awesome beginner explanation. So appreciative!

[gillykubeart]

I looked at a number of imovie tutorial and this one gave me the basic knowledge (and courage) to try. Thank you so much Meredith! It is amazing that you can impart this knowledge to an attention deficit, techno-challenged and senior citizen :)

I like that you explained what us beginners are seeing, unlike other videos that immediately start doing stuff without explaining. They seem to think we can see what they are doing with their mouse pointer.

Meredith, thank you so much. You are the most articulate teacher/communicator I have ever seen on YouTube, particularly in this subject. I can't wait to view and learn from your other videos.

Many thanks for this video. Excellent guide to start. Simple and clear explanation. I hope this summer I can make nice videos on Mac with Iphone, GoPRO, DJI OM4 and DJI Mavic Air. You did a perfect presentation at the beginning before starting the edition.

*iMovie is simply the best tool for those using Macs because if you're using ANY apple device you can sync it with your Mac. It was my VERY FIRST Editing tool before i discovered Adobe*

[johnpoynter]

thank you for teaching a 62 year old newby to video editing yours is the best i have been able to find very slow and methodical for every move you need to know to carry on and not give up again

[eduardofg]

Thanks so much Meredith, you went trough really the basics we need to start.

[livinginaccordwiththesky]

I have listened to many of these iMovie instructional videos and many of the instructors are too fast or have too much of their personality getting in the way. You have the talent to be very clear and pronounced in your speaking which I find very easy to follow and I appreciate your ability and style of presenting!

[RonBilaro]

I like the way you guide newbies. I just subscribed. I was drawn to how calm and slow your process is .. excellent. I was surfing the net as to how to make youtube thumbnails for food and people's pic on top of each other and i came across your channel. Hoping you can help me. Thank you,

[EliLeeDesigns]
