IMovie Video Tutorials

Developer Apple Latest Release version 6.0.3 Operating System Mac OS X Website Apple iMovie Description iMovie is a video editing software application which allows users to edit their own home movies. It was originally released by Apple in 1999 as a Mac OS 8 application bundled with the first FireWire-enabled Macintosh model[1]. Since version 3, iMovie has been a Mac OS X only application bundled in the iLife suite of Macintosh applications.[2] iMovie imports video footage to the Mac using the FireWire interface on most MiniDV format digital video cameras. From there, the user can edit the video clips, add titles, and add music. Effects include basic color correction and video enhancement tools, and transitions such as fade-in, fade-out, and slides.
