4. Choose Edit > Split Clip at Playhead. A new clip immediately appears having

divided the original clip into two separate clips.

Remember, if you make a mistake as you work, iMovie will let you undo the action by simply

choosing Edit > Undo. iMovie allows you to undo up to

ten

actions.

Direct Trimming (New in iMovie 4)

The fourth method for removing undesired footage is called “direct trimming.” This is a new

feature in iMovie 4. You can use direct trimming to trim audio and video clips from either the

beginning or the end of a clip. Before you attempt to do this, make sure the you have Edit

Volume turned off for the clip by clicking on the clip and then going to the Timeline Viewer.

You can trim clips both audio and video clips directly in the Timeline Viewer — just by clicking

and dragging. This can be very useful if you’d like to experiment, for example, with the length

of a particular clip. Click on a clip in the Timeline to select it; then simply drag from the right

to the left to shorten it. You can see the results immediately, decide whether you like the clip

shorter or longer and, since iMovie preserves the original clip until you empty the iMovie Trash,

restore it to its full length if you change your mind.

Note: You can see at a glance if a clip has been trimmed already. Full clips have rounded

corners, while trimmed clips have straight ends and sharp corners.

Importing Other QuickTime Movie Footage

iMovie 4 gives you the ability to import just about any type of QuickTime movie.

1. Go to the File menu and select Import… (Shift+Command+I)

2. Navigate to any QuickTime movie on the hard drive of your computer.

3. Click on the movie you desire to open and click the Open button.

4. iMovie 4 will give you an Import Files dialog box showing you that it is transforming

whatever format that QuickTime movie was previously into the DV Stream format.

5. When the import is complete, the movie will appear in your Clips Pane and can be

selected and previewed in the Clips or Timeline Viewer.

Restoring Media to a Clip

Although iMovie allows for undo’s up to ten actions, what can you do to restore media from a

trimmed, cropped, or split clip if you are past the allowable ten actions and you can’t undo the

damage with the Undo command? Have no fear! If you

haven’t

emptied the trash in iMovie, you

can restore any media you have removed from a clip back to its original footage.

1. Select the clip whose media you wish to restore.

2. From the Advanced menu, select Restore Clip.
