Chapter 2 iMovie HD Tutorial 13
As you import your video footage from a camcorder connected via FireWire, iMovie HD
detects where you made a break in recording and automatically divides the video into
separate scenes, or “clips.” Each sequence of recorded video is then made into a video
clip that is stored in the Clips pane, shown below.
∏ Tip: You can use iMovie HD Preferences to change import settings, such as where
imported clips go, whether iMovie creates new clips at scene breaks, and more. To see
the settings you can adjust, choose iMovie HD > Preferences and click Import.
In addition to transferring video from your camcorder, you can import video from a CD
or DVD, or from other locations on your computer’s hard disk.
To import video from a disc or other location:
1 Choose File > Import.
2 Locate and select the file you want to import.
3 Click Open.
