About iMovie 9.0.2
This update improves overall stability and fixes an issue that could cause audio playback to be out of sync.
Home for all your home video.
With iMovie, every video you’ve ever recorded is right in front of you, ready to roll. Grab the popcorn and enjoy the show.
All your video, all in one place.
Chances are, you have a camcorder, a digital camera, or an iPhone — and maybe all three. That means one thing: You have a ton of great video. iMovie puts it all in one place and organizes it for you so your video is easy to browse and fun to watch. Just plug in your device, open iMovie, and start importing your video. It appears in your Event Library — the one place you’ll find everything you’ve ever recorded. Just like photos in iPhoto, videos are organized by Events. And as your collection grows, you can rate clips as “favorite” or “rejected,” tag them with preset or custom keywords, and filter them so you can find the best scenes (or hide the ones you’re not thrilled with).
Enjoy your feature presentation.
Who says you have to edit? iMovie is a great place to just sit back and watch. View your video full screen without any desktop distractions. In full-screen view, flip through your entire video library using Cover Flow — the same way you flip through albums in iTunes. You can also toggle between Events and projects, skim quickly through clips, and watch individual scenes.
Editing for everyone.
In just a few clicks, you can turn your home video into your favorite film.
Drag-and-drop moviemaking.
If you know how to drag and drop, you can make a movie in iMovie. Here’s how easy it is: Just drag your favorite clips into the project area and arrange them however you like. Drag in titles and transitions. Drop in photos. Add a song from iTunes or GarageBand for your soundtrack. The end.
Make the cut.
Editing in iMovie makes perfect sense, thanks to the simple, friendly interface. Every clip appears as a dynamic filmstrip that lets you preview the action at a glance. Move the pointer over the filmstrip to skim your video. Select clips and parts of clips just as you select text, then adjust them until what’s in your head appears on the screen.
Add some photos.
When your action flick has too much action, maybe it’s time for some stills. iMovie imports your photos from iPhoto, Aperture, or Photo Booth. You can apply pan and zoom motion effects to give it a documentary feel. iMovie even detects faces in your photos to ensure that they remain in the frame.
Take your movie further.
Fine-tune every cut and transition, edit color and audio, and fix shaky video. iMovie gives you the controls you need to smooth out the rough parts — and there’s nothing rough about it.
Fine-tune every edit.
When you have all your clips where you want them, fine-tune even the trickiest cuts and transitions with the Precision Editor. Skim each clip up close and identify precisely how much to keep and where to cut. Adjust the duration of transitions. Edit audio and video independently, so you can use the sound from one clip with the video from another. Reposition titles and effects. And preview everything before you commit to a cut.
Fix shaky video.
Don’t leave those perfect — if slightly wobbly — moments on the cutting-room floor. Video stabilization in iMovie analyzes how much your camera was moving, then automatically reduces shake. You can analyze your video on a clip-by-clip basis or fix it all at once (the latter may take a while, but it’s worth it).
