In this lecture we'll perform our first media import from an iPhone and we'll discuss the import window and the events the media is going to.

In this lecture we'll see how to import directly from a camera and how to import from the camera's memory card connected directly to your Mac and we'l see the differences between those 2 methods.

In this lecture we'll see how to capture footage being played live from an older tape-based camera as well as how to capture live footage from a webcam or other camera connected to your computer.

In this lecture we'll see how to import footage that's already stored on any of your connected hard disk drives or thumb drives as well as importing media directly from the Mac Finder.

This lecture will show you how to add any storage location as a favorite import source to save you time in future imports from that same source.

In this lecture we'll understand iMovie's notion of an event.  What makes up an event, how to create a new one, rename, sort, etc.

This lecture will explain the notion of iMovie's libraries, when to use a different one, how to create it, rename, etc.

This lecture will explain the notion of a Project in iMovie and its hierarchy relative to libraries and events.

This lecture explains all the actions you can perform on clips, events, and projects in the libraries, including copying, moving and deleting, but also merging and splitting.

PRO lecture: in this lecture we'll explain how the iMovie Library packages are organised, where you can find your data on your drive, and where the original clips can be found, based on where they were originally imported or copied to.

In this lecture we'll learn the different parts of the iMovie user interface.

In this lecture we'll see all the different user interface elements that the user can customize and how to reset them to the default settings.

In this lecture we'll learn how to rate clips so you could later filter the clips by those ratings and make it easier to find the correct  clips when building your movie.  We'll also learn how to find specific clips.

In this lecture we'll cover the different ways to add clips or even parts of clips to the timeline.  We'll also cover very important and useful keyboard shortcuts.

In this lecture we'll cover the different playback options available in iMovie, such as playing just a selection, loop playback, play from the beginning, frame by frame, full screen, and more.

Here we'll cover the main project settings such as the movie resolution, automatic content, clip size, fade to/from black, and more.

In this lecture we'll learn how to overcome iMovie's limitation of setting the movie's resolution to that of the 1st clip.

In this lecture we'll learn to perform the most basic editing tasks: trimming, moving clips around in the timeline, and cutting/copying/pasting clips.

How do you save a project?  Check out in this lecture.

In this lecture we'll go through the most basic editing tools we will use: skimming, playback, selecting a portion of a clip, splitting and joining clips, using markers, and performing a roll edit in the precision editor.

In this lecture we'll go over the different methods to trim a clip.  Here we'll also explain the notion of clips in the timeline being only a reference of the original footage in your library.  We'll also perform a ripple edit and slip edit in the clip trimmer and we'll set a clip to a specific time length.

This lecture will show the different ways you can replace a clip in the timeline by another clip from the browser.

In this lecture we'll see how we can easily create a fast image flicker effect.

In this lecture we will learn how we can search and preview transitions, how to add a transition and a trick to audition transitions quickly.

In this lecture we'll see how to change a transition length once or globally, what happens when there isn't enough raw material to lengthen a transition, and we'll go once again to the precision editor, but this time with the transition.

This lecture describes the default transition and the default transition duration.

This lecture covers a few more topics related to transitions, namely fading, transitions iMovie can automatically put for you, and deleting transitions (including when you have auto-content turned on).

This lecture will explain the different ways to add clips as a secondary timeline.  It will explain the very important notion of the iMovie magnetic timeline.  Also, this lecture will cover the first of 4 overlay options called cutaway.

This lecture will explain how to work with the famous green or blue screen to allow you to transport your subjects anywhere you want and produce cool effects that way.  We will talk about the mask and the eraser tools to help us get a clean green screen effect.

This lecture will cover the 3rd overlay option, the split screen, which shows 2 images side by side.

In this lecture we'll cover the 4th overlay option: picture in picture, which allows you to add a smaller image inside the main video.  This is the only place in iMovie where you can make the original image smaller.  We'll cover all the options and we'll also talk about the keyframes that let you change the size and position of the smaller frame over time.

This course was built inside this course. Here I show you how I've added some overlays, like cutaways and picture-in-picture, to some of the course lectures you've already seen earlier.

This lecture will show how you can get more effects and transitions from the internet which either have a green background or a transparent background and use them as overlays in your movies.

In this lecture we'll learn how we can apply some tricks to get an image to move along the screen by using the keyframe options in the picture-in-picture overlay.

iMovie only allows adding 1 overlay on top of the main timeline.  In this lecture we'll show a trick on how to overcome this limitation and add more videos one on top of the other.

The "4 PIPs" background files described in this lecture are downloadable as extra assets of this lecture.

This lecture will explain how we can build a logo that will remain in the corner of our video and which we could reduce in opacity so we could still see the video trough the logo.

iMovie doesn't really have any options to crop an image without having it fill the whole image.  In this lecture will learn how to use the green screen masking option to crop an image to any size we want, in this case to the aspect ratio of feature films.

The background file shown in the lecture is available for download as an asset of this lecture.

In this lecture we're going to combine some of the tricks we've learned in this section to create a nice transparent animated intro with our logo which we could then put on top of any background or other video.

This section will explain how to add pictures from the Photos (or Aperture) app and how to handle pictures in the timeline.

In this lecture we'll see how to change the duration of a photo as well as how to change the default duration for pictures.

This lecture will describe the different crop settings: fit, crop to fill, and Ken Burns.  We will also discuss the default photo placement and image rotation.
