For our introductory class, we will be editing in iMovie which allows for very professional looking videos without being a pro editor! It works with Photos, Music, and GarageBand apps, and comes with multiple ways to trim or edit, add transitions and titles as well as audio and special effects! For the basics on how import and export media, create events and projects - see the class iMovie Basics handout under Unit Files. Students will get hands on practice with all features in iMovie during class activities and demonstrations.
