1. Import your footage (either from a video camera, a still-shot camera with video capacity and/or still-shots or capture video using your built-in facetime camera on your computer) by selecting the video camera icon halfway on your screen – your computer will generate thumbnails. 2. You will find your videos under “Event Library” and your imported still-shots under the camera icon (to import still-shots, you must first open up iPhoto and then import your photos).3.Your iPhoto videos will show up on your screen: this is where you want to edit – it is much easier cropping and splicing here versus once you’ve dragged and dropped it into your project.
So…now cut your footage so it starts and ends where you want it to by highlighting and clicking the video clip (you’ll see it highlighted with a yellow border/box)….here you can place your fingers on the track-pad and determine where you’d like it to begin and end.
