I never thought I would make it through the complete movie ... but I did!!! It was very informative. I love how you explain everything and make it look so easy. Thank you!

[denniselliott]

I thought i knew Imovie pretty well until i looked at your videos, i feel like a beginner now. thank you for the humble pie.

[SamanthaRae.]

Awesome video and so helpful! Answered like the top 10 things I was trying to figure out! Thanks so much! 👍

I just watched this again and picked up even more things I missed the first time. I've been playing with iMovie for a couple of years but not seriously. Now I'm trying to make videos for YouTube and this will be a great help. As far as titles, I prefer to use Keynote to make my own and animate them into movies and use the picture in picture feature, You have pointed out many features in this video that I did not know about in iMovie. Thank you so much.

Great guide! I’ve used iMovie a lot but found that I was a bit lost after a break and many updates, so thanks for getting me back on track!

[Marvelofebikes]

Very nice and informative, great job! Thank you!

[LizAckerley]

Brilliant thanks so much for this comprehensive video. I am still working through it and until now haven't been using iMovie correctly at all. For projects I have been dragging video clips from the desktop and into the timeline! Not using the browser. Now I have many projects done this way! Not sure how I am going to organise it all yet but I know your videos are going to help! I definitely need more libraries although the events are tricky because my videos are project based, not always time based. thanks again.

[ebutuoy]
