[@mrssarkazz]

I've been using iMovie since I was in college 2000...I use FCP but iMovie is bae

[@MakerBrain]

I have been using Imovie for about a year for all my YT videos.

[@MakerBrain]

Super helpful video! I am pretty good with iMovie but this showed me a lot of things I have been wondering about but could not figure out how to do.

[@bessiedavid8216]

8 months now but i use my phone for now so i guess, what am learning can only be done with a computer

[@papaswagtv7581]

Been using imovie for about 5 years but just started KZbin in June 2019 and started using it on a more consistent basis so about 10 months on a regular basis

[@NguyeningLifestyles]

I remember wanting to get a mac 10 years ago to have iMovie and edit videos for free and giving up because it didn't have everything I needed. You've just given me everything I needed to make semi-decent videos! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN THE LAST 10 YEARS?

[@ForrestNeal]

Looks like imovie has improved quite a bit. For people who are doing basic edits with a bit of the functionality of final cut pro or a similar editing software, this looks like a good option!

[@jeffrey.a.hanson]

It’s really great for quick projects or on a slower Mac. If I shoot with good lighting and have some extra shots planned out…iMovie will do the job.

[@everythingarsenaltv]

Think Media is the blessing I didn't know I'd need when I started KZbin 😭 So helpful and inspiring 💪💪

[@coryd.d.miller4161]

Self taught over many hours and this just blew my mind. Thank you for a great content tutorial

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Been using iMovie between the iPhone and MacBook for several years now, but I learned a few things in this video. I wasn't aware of the keyframes and didn't know that you could select a range to mute a small section without splitting the clip. Thanks. I'll definitely use those.

[@reezevlog]

i've been using iMovie since 2002 ...then moved to Final Cut 12 years ago till now...sometimes i still use iMovie for simple n quick editing projects..only use FCP for detail projects...... n thanks for this video, now i could maximise the usage of iMovie without even going into FCP..

[@MiaRits]

I have been using iMovie for 2 years and never realized you could do some of this stuff! Thank you so much

[@igglepiggle8447]

[@templeofsunshine4974]

This video is such a blessing! I have always been told/been under the impression that iMovie is super basic and doesn't work well if you want really good videos but you have changed my mind. This is an amazing video. Thank you!

[@sonatina3]

Thank you for the clear and to-the-point video! I used waaaay old versions of imovie years ago but since starting to use the new version I had no idea it could do half this stuff.

[@sheenapreneur]

You are an angel lol. I was editing on my phone because I refused to get a Mac, 😫but now that I have a Mac, I was struggling editing my first couple of videos. Thank you so much!

[@lenapetrova]

This video was SO helpful! I was about to spend $300 on Final Cut Pro but this video changed my mind.

[@aaronwhitefoot]

Just started using imovie. I was limited to fast forward an turning music up or down. Just trying to intake all the information and remember it is where I'm struggling. But thank you I will probably watch this a couple more times. I needed these tips.

[@mikefixac]

Thank you so much. I love the professionalism, especially taking the time to time-stamp. I've become an insta-fan--good work.

[@DomiY]

WOW! Think Media..you guys are AMAZING! I've used iMovie for several years, but mores in the last several months. Several people have told me to switch to Premiere because iMovie is limited. I didn't know iMovie could do all this. I'm not going anywhere, and can't wait to apply them to my own channel videos.

[@maplayaafn7064]

[@lastingloveministries9204]

I haven't started using iMovie yet. I've had it on my Macs for 16 years now and never attempted it. Now I need it, so thank you very much for your videos!

[@Cthulhuliessleeping]

i've been using imovie for less than 24 hours

[@RussPaladino]

Outstanding, thank you! I've been using iMovie for only about 2 years, and never went the extra step to learn these pro tips and tricks. This video was clear and concise. I'm a subscriber now.

[@thedollshow5473]

Hello

[@latoyadixonsmith]

I've used iMovie for years and never knew about all these features! Thanks for sharing.

[@blueberrycow8243]

I feel so basic. I've been using iMovie since I was 5, and everyone else has switched to Video Star or AE. I've tried everything, but can't get used to anything else. 😂

[@LaurenWittFilm]

Ive been using iMovie for quite sometime, I would say maybe 3 years. Didn't know some of this stuff. I actually just downloaded another editor on my laptop because i was getting bored of it. Thank you for reopening up my eyes to more possibilities! super cool!

[@hnia0]

i started using it yesterday and in one hour i created a video edited and all that, surprised of my skills learned through you guys thank you

[@sumdaybecame2day]

Ok, so I watched until the end. I am so grateful for your easy-to-follow teaching style. I promise to let you know each and every time I implement your teachings. Stay tuned.

[@BeautyMavenRaven]

I've been using iMovie since I was in college. I'm always looking for ways to get better with my video content.I LOVEEEE the clone effect. Great tips!

[@praxiprax6804]

I'm a first time Apple user for all things apple and just got my Mac Mini and was trying to look for videos on how to use iMovie. Your video is very helpful. Thank you.

[@artieshell9205]

30 minutes of gold! Especially the exporting information!

[@zeapha8376]

Just made my first KZbin video using iMovie last week. Now, after watching this video, I will certainly be using some of these tips and tricks for my future videos. Thank you ❤️

[@millenniumoverland]

As a total beginner this video was unbelievably helpful. Thank you 🙏

[@DarrenAltmanvo]

Oh mate!!! Your * Command-Option-V * shortcut to replicate setting is a winner!! I just colour graded the first scene, as my lighting and colours were off. Then I highlighted the next 20 scenes, hit those buttons to replicate the setting and BOOM!! Thanks so much!!

[@libbydawnm3593]

I just started using iMovie and this video helps me a lot! Thanks so much! My husband’s music videos will be crazy good now.

[@KISwithMaria]

been using iMovie for 4 years now and I'm so excited to try the clone effect!!!

[@nigelcarren]

I am absolutely overjoyed to see that these are Tips and Tricks... not a single 'Hack' in sight! BRAVO, this is a great video. Best wishes from a recent Mac convert. 🏆🇬🇧

[@sourcefor]

Inspiring...I’ve watched graham for years and now I follow you and it’s encouraging to see people adapting to the modern world and giving me inspiration to do it myself!

[@KevinReedAlbion]

This was very helpful for me who's been stumbling through iMovie for just a couple of months. I especially liked the cloning (not that I want to see two of me or even one!) and also the export tips. I've been frustrated going from the iMac resolution to the KZbin resolution and the key will be to use the custom setting! Thank you!

[@alcazartony]

I've been using iMovie since 2013 and I've never realized it has so much more to offer! Thanks a million! Now our family vacation videos would be more exciting to watch after applying what you showed me! Now I'm a follower! :)

[@Pomdaddy]

Hi Sean thanks great video!!! I am brand new to iMovie I have always been a spaz whenever I tried to use it. One day while shopping I gave my 5 year old daughter my iPhone to keep her occupied. It blew me away when she gave it back and showed me the movie she made of me shopping. I think it's time for me to finally take all my videos and start to use iMovie to make them more enjoyable. Thanks for giving me the inspiration to try again. Hitting the Like and Subscribe now!

[@GarrettHarer]

I love it and I am going to watch other suggested topics in this video too. I’ve been using iMovie on my phone for years, just doing the basics and I that I have a Mac computer I need more help. Thank you so much.😘

[@mimishouse8497]

I just a month ago started to use iMovie seriously (for my You Tube channel) I came upon this tutorial as I was looking for help with basics, I received so much more! Thank you!

[@ianig9]

Thank you for a fantastic video. I just started using iMovie tonight. I’ve been making and uploading videos for a couple of days and have finally decided to start editing them beforehand for a more polished product. Thanks again. Cheers, Ian.

[@NenerenaeLove]

I saved this video and I've referred back to it at least 20 times now whenever I'm editing!! Literally soooo much info.....THANK YOU🙏🏾🙌🏾💕

[@whatzupLizzy]

Using iMovie for 10 years but still learned things today. Love the green screen info, going to watch more of your tutorials. Thanks,

[@BriansModelTrains]

I have been using iMovie since it came out. I had no idea of what it was capable of. Thank you! subscribed!

[@mrs.debzembek]

This is golden. You managed to put soooo much info about iMovie into this tutorial. Thank you!!!!

[@kennyyoung4024]

I’ve been using iMovie for a little over a year and I’ve NEVER known how to do about 80% of these things! I’m SOO GRATEFUL! (This video is going to my favorites incase I need references again!)

[@InspiringKidsSG]

Have been using iMovie for sometime and never know these the power of it until I watched this. Thank you Thank Media.

[@UnfriendlyGarage]

I really just started using Imovie and for the love of GOD.....THANK YOU.

[@SwaysDeals]

This came at the perfect moment! No joke I was thinking I need a paid editing app to make my videos better and I opened KZbin and this was the first video that popped up! Thank you for this!

[@miniwrites2160]

Today is my first day of using iMovie and this tutorial helped me a lot! Thanks for such wonderful tips.

Thanks Think Media! The best educational, inspirational, useful channel on KZbin!

[@montywiseman4326]

Just started. I will be referencing this often! Clearly stated tips - thank you!

[@sergiomartin4190]

I used iMovie on my iPhone since year 2017, but I switched to use MovieSpirit since year 2019 as iMovie has many limits when I tried to do some advanced edits. Personally I think MovieSpirit is the most easy one for beginners as it can overlay multiple layers as we need in one go and it has more editing functions comparing to iMovie.

[@MarleyJ]

These options in iMovie are only PC

[@aabcxxyz2823]

Just got my first Mac, an m1 to start working on go pro footage. Awesome tips here, the audio separation and fade, with b roll is so easy and smooth to do.

[@landandsea22]

This is great! I’ve been using iMovie for three days. Switched to a Mac after using a PC my entire life and just 6 days in. Definately a learning curve. Question, after I practiced the audio editing you showed now my music sounds when I scroll the timeline thru the clips. How do I turn that off?

[@kiranvegini4937]

The cmd+option+c is incredible!😍 Thank you!

[@LaceLoveandLaura]

Thank you for these tips! I've been using iMovie for like 3 years now... and still didn't know some of these. Still more I'm trying to learn

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

This was FAB!!! I've been working with iMovie for a couple of years (but only seriously that last few months...) and this gives me more things to play with I didn't know about or understand. I love using quirky additions to my vids; this is going to be so fun. Thank you.
