iMovie 10.1.1 Essential Training

Heads up! This course may be archived and/or unavailable.

iMovie is the video editor of choice for many Mac users. It's an inexpensive app that offers the basic tools you need to make a great family film, wedding video, or YouTube clip. But iMovie also includes features you see in more high-end applications, such as transitions, image stabilization, and even green-screen effects. Fully revised to reflect the latest iMovie interface, this course walks beginning and intermediate users through the process of creating high-quality videos with iMovie. First, learn how to get your footage into iMovie, from a camera or your hard drive, and navigate around the interface. Staff author Garrick Chow then provides an overview of the entire editing process—fine-tuning clips, adjusting color, adding titles and music, transitioning from one clip to the next, creating slo-mo video, and more. At the end of the course, he shows how to export your movies to share with the world. Topics include:
