You then simply drag and drop the clips into the timeline in the order you want them to appear. With large clips that run into several minutes, it is better to split them up into smaller clips which can be arranged more easily. Just like handling text in your Word documents, youcan copy, cut and paste portions of clips, and insert them into different sections of the timeline. Making a transition To brighten up the video clips or turn them into black and white for that nostalgic feel, use the effects panel. Reverse the direction of the video clips or change their speed.
Transitions can provide interesting ways to change or flow from one scene to another.
For example, you can have the next video clip push the previous one out of the screen. Effects and transitions are rendered in real-time, so get ready to wait a few minutes as iMovie carries out the instructions. At this point, it would be a good idea not to run too many applications on your computer at the same time. But use them in moderation. To create title Inserting titles or subtitles into your video clips is a simple drag and drop exercise.
