Other precision tools includ Skin Tone Balance, White Balance, and Match Color: the latter is a basic but functional color correction tool.

You can tweak every clip’s color output, audio waves, slow them down or speed them up. You can select the precise moment in which change cut between two clips, and it’s a pretty accurate choice you can make. iMovie 10 supports multi layer editing, so that you can try different editing solution, or just get a side-by-side or picture-in-picture shot. Once you have imported your clip (which is a very fast process) you can then skim them for the right moment to put in the timeline. In the video editing consumer space, maybe only Adobe Premiere Elements has more features but as always ease of use is a strong value for an Apple product, and iMovie is a typical one: extremely linear in its day-to-day usage, very powerful under the hood, no tinkering allowed. This minimalistic look and feel doesn’t maim the software because the most important features, edit a movie, is enhanced and streamlined by this decision. If you took a good look, you’ll find all the tools in the right tab or under the right button. Apple choose to hide every distracting button from the interface, leaving it with a sober minimalistic look. The usual three panel layout is used, with the canonical source – playback – timeline division.

UsabilityĪpple is developing iMovie since the late ‘90s, so is pretty obvious that its user interface is carefully elegant and simple, yet full of choices for those who need control.

IMovie let you edit your footage in a professional way.
