To START A NEW PROJECT IN IMOVIECreate a Movie
To create a new film, tap on the '+' button. Choose the option to create a new Project.
Rename your project by tapping on its title; Use the options at the bottom to play your film back or export it to facebook, you tube or email.
9
ACCESS THE LIBRARYCHOOSE A THEME
All the clips stored on your iPad are available on the top-left part of the interface . Media is divided based on type: videos, photos and audio - which includes music from your library as well as sound effects and theme specific background tracks.
With themes you can add titles and transitions to your project. You can choose the one you want by tapping on the Gear menu, top-right, and swiping the thumbnails until you find the one you like.
10
ADD PHOTOS OR VIDEOS
To add existing video, tap the Media Library button, then tap the video button
Tap the clip you want to add, then tap the blue arrow to add the clip to your project
To add an existing photo, tap the Media Library button, then tap the photo button at the bottom of the screen. Tap to add a photo.

RECORD VIDEO INTO IMOVIE
12
SELECT AND ADD A CLIP
Go back to your library's Video section. Preview any clip in the top-right section of the interface by dragging your finger over it. To select a clip, tap on it. Drag the yellow handles on either side inwards to only select part of your clip; use the main preview section to trim your selection precisely.
Then tap on the clip and it'll jump down into the timeline. Add a few more to build up your edit. Notice in the library that any clip or clip-part that's used in the project now has an orange line under it.
13
HOW TO EDIT CLIPS
The red line represents the playhead and the image shown top-right of the screen is the frame that the playhead's over. This playhead is stationary. You move your project by dragging it to the left or the right.
You can further fine-tune your edit straight from the timeline: tap any clip to bring up yellow handles. Use them to add or remove parts of that clip from your project (the currently used part is still linked to the main clip you took from the Library). To zoom in or out, move two fingers away or closer together.
14
ADD TRANSITIONS
A transition is added between each clip. Change those transitions by double-tapping on them. Choose between no transition (i.e, a straight cut) to a cross dissolve, to one based on your chosen theme; the transition icon changes to reflect your current choice.
To alter the duration: Select Theme, move the playhead back a bit and press the Play button to preview. Return to the Gear menu, select a theme and see what that transition looks like.
15
HOW TO RE-ORDER/SPLIT CLIPS
To change the order of clips, tap and hold on one. This removes it from the timeline. With a finger still touching the screen, you can move that clip to another position. If you release it while it's out of the timeline, it's removed from the project.
To insert a new clip in the middle of an existing one: move the playhead over the clip then select it. Now, swipe down over the playhead to cut your clip in two. Insert a new clip in between those two parts.
