How do you use iMovie on all your Apple devices?

Even for professional videographers, it can be difficult to make the perfect video in one go. In order to still make your video look polished, you can use only the best parts. In iMovie, you can easily cut your recorded footage and turn them into a sequence. It's just a matter of sliding and dragging until you get the desired result. And iMovie automatically makes the transitions look smooth and professional.

You've cut the material you need and turned it into a sequence. The transitions are nice and smooth, but the result still looks a bit boring. That's why iMovie has different effects that you can add to your video. For example, you can vary your transitions for a more dynamic effect. Or you can make that successful descend down the slopes even more dramatic by playing it in slow motion.

A movie would be a bit boring without good music or sound effects. Luckily, you can easily edit the sound of your movie in iMovie. Detach the audio, adjust the volume, and add all your favorite songs. That way, you can effortlessly make an awesome aftermovie of a festival.

Do you want to use photos in your video? With iMovie, you can. The disadvantage is that photos are often static and make your video look less smooth. To prevent this, iMovie automatically uses the so-called Ken Burns effect. The image opens zoomed in on a detail and slowly zooms out to show the entire photo. It makes your photos look a lot less static. That way, you can integrate a beautiful family photo into the wedding video for your best friend.

You can find a couple of iMovie functions in your Photos app. With these, you can easily edit your videos without opening iMovie. Want to make that awesome video you just recorded on your iPhone even more awesome? Open the video in Photos and click Edit to get started. In the screen that opens now, you can shorten videos and add filters, music, or text to your video.

An advantage of iMovie is that it's already installed on all of your Apple devices. Record your visit to Disneyland Paris on your iPhone. You can already make some fast edits while you wait in line for the next ride. And on your way home, you can take the time to finish your video on your Apple iPad. iMovie works the same way on all of your devices, so you can easily continue where you left off.
