Perfect. So far. Yours is the first video I've seen that gives an entire overview of IMovie vs individual techniques. It's an approach I've really needed. Thanks.

[VictoriaHarpistcom]

Thank you for your opening statement about Libraries and Events. No one else made it clear like you did.

[Finewoodworkingofsc]

By far the best organization video for iMovie on YouTube!! Well done, Sir. Well done.

[ericapytlovany]

Hallelujah, this was exactly what I needed. The organization of Photos and iMovie exploded my brain and this has been a huge help.

Dude, this was a LIFE SAVER. Thank you so much!

[Jesseal]

I never really comment on youtube vids... but this was too good to not! Your video was SO helpful! Thanks for doing this video. Learned so much even for this basic software! Thank you! <3

[matt_fs]

Thank you for this introduction to events! It made my life way easier. Since there is no clear explanation on Google or YouTube about chronologically arranging files to appear chronological in the iMovies video sector, this solved that problem!

[unknownKnownunknowns]

Thanks very helpful Joel. How do I merge multiple iMovie libraries?

[lisaherren]

This was so very helpful!!! Great work!

[lupitahahn]

absolutely love the way you explain things. thank you <3

[cocoabrown_]

Thank you for this video. I’ve worked with iMovie for many years without understanding events and libraries believe it or not. Now I have a clearer understanding. Would you ever consider doing a video explaining how to organize and edit from video on an external drive. That’s one thing I want to figure out one day.

[RonWayne]

Joel, you're awesome! Thanks so much...

[elizharber]

This was really helpful! Next thing I'd love to know: how did you include your on-screen boxes and circles? Do you have a video explaining how to create & include them?

[user_abraham]

Thank you. This is very helpful. I'm setting up a new Mac and I want to make a fresh start.

Thanks for this video. I was going crazy trying to find video clips by what I had named them.
