iMovie window (Figure 2a). The New Project button is the button designated with a plus sign in the lower
right hand corner of the Project Library window (Figure 2b)
5. You will name your project and then select the Aspect Ratio for your project, either 4:3 fullscreen* or
16:9 widescreen*. Note: fullscreen footage is shaped more like a square; widescreen footage is shaped
more a like a rectangle (often with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen). You also have the
option to select what type of project you will be working on. iMovie 11 now allows for the creation of
Movie Trailers using specied templates which can be selected from the New Project menu. If you want
to create a normal movie project you may select a Theme at this time as well. A frame rate drop down
menu is also available to select different choices. For playback in the United States you should leave the
default of 30 fps - NTSC selected. There also is a check box and drop down menu which will allow you
to apply transitions to every clip within a project. By checking the Automatically Add: check box you
may specify a transition using the drop down menu.
4. Click on the Plus sign button to create a new movie project.
