Expand Your Creative Possibilities in iMovie with This One Simple Trick!

[@kengriffith45]

Very helpful for people who are new to the intricacies of video editing (like myself!), and iMovie is as technical as I want to get for now!!

[@kevchilton908]

Very useful to know, and with a great delivery… thank you 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Another amazing tool.....as someone that loves how simple to use imovie is....(have tried final cut and way above my head now).....I love the added function you add to this tool.

[@RobbieFoxx12290605]

Great video per usual. I have learned so much by watching your videos. Thanks!

[@MacVideoMagic]

Great to hear!

[@America2gether]

Awesome, I've learned a lot from your videos. Saved me a ton of frustration!! Stay Blessed

[@zahrakermani]

[@rapamayor]

You are welcome!

Two wows! 3:20 animating the Picture in Picture onto the screen using the keyframe tool! I was completely unaware of this, and it's certainly not discoverable via the iMovie UI. Thanks! 1:20 reducing two tracks into one track by rendering ("pre-rendering") the two tracks, then bringing that render into iMovie as one track, then adding another second track on top of that! Then you could render that three-track take, and bring it an and add a fourth track! Brilliantly simple!

[@brendangoodenough173]

Thanks Mike! Your stuff is great! 🍻

[@meditationgirl]

Thanks for the tips!

[@marksmodellingmadness]

Animation aside, I learned how to do this awhile ago but, the impressive functionality of imovie is the main reason I haven't bought final cut.

[@JacarandaMusic]

Fabulous as always. Best resolution tends to make rather vast files though! Btw have you made a lesson on Keyframes? Not sure I quite followed the whole thing about that.

[@MacVideoMagic]

I talk about how to manage the potentially vast files in the livestream replay right about here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKWpiZyHrMSXpLM

[@yuliethoyos-t2j]

thank you!!

[@UncleJoeHikes]

Helpful as always!

[@TheBoundlessVoid]

Thanks for you good tips.

[@KrauseMouseAdventures]

Great tips. I’ve thought about how to do this type of thing. I wish iMovie had more tracks, but this is a good workaround

[@MacVideoMagic]

Totally agree!

[@SaulGood365]

Michael, just beginning with iMovie; I have a children's song for audio and I want to match-up with cartoon images, which I want animated (i.e., prerendered). Would the audio be on the timeline or the overlay? Thanks!

[@jgs2207]

Hi Mike, Fantastic as always. 👍👍 Q: If i may ask - What software did you use in producing this tutorial. Reason i ask is that i was trying to replicate your technique for a little project i am doing for a food recipe. Is using Keynote’s Live Video do-able for this? The circular talking head with the white outline made me think of Keynote’s Live Video from one your past KZbin posts. I tried QuickTime Movie recording with my face and QuickTime’s Screen recording simultaneously (I even did the clap to synchronise audio 🤪 )but couldnt get talking head as circular… Just curious. I may try your techniques using OBS next….but havent been brave enough to try that yet.. Thanks again for all your tutorials.

[@jitendramandal6455]

THANKS SIR

[@howardchud9097]

Nice video. Wish iMovie would add more track flexibility.

[@MacVideoMagic]

Me, too.

[@deanwolfechannel]

When you pre render a file, do you always use hi res?

[@MacVideoMagic]

I do, to preserve quality until final export, but you don't have to.

[@tonybreuer608]

Thanks!

[@MacVideoMagic]

Whoa! Thank you so much.

[@noirspective8436]

nice!

[@MacVideoMagic]

Thanks!
