Top Tools: iMovie


iMovie  makes viewing and working with video as intuitive as enjoying your photos. A built-in library automatically organizes your video, so all the clips you’ve captured and movies you’ve created are just a click away. With its revolutionary interface, iMovie makes it quick and easy to browse your library and create new movies. And iMovie is built for sharing. In just a few steps, you can add movies to your website, publish them on YouTube, and create versions for iPod, iPhone, and Apple TV..

Comments from those who selected iMovie as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2008

  • “Another top apple application. I prefer the HD version because I’m used to it. I’ve not tried out the O8 version because I use a G4 PowerBook and you need an Intel Mac.”  Adam Sutcliffe
  • “As part of the iLife suite, iMovie puts students in the creative driver’s seat.  I taught secondary students video editing 10 years ago and it was difficult for them to learn.  I can now teach grade 2 students this much easier tool that creates just as good of a product.  We are able to allow students to submit assignments in oral and visual ways instead of text only.”  Kevin Amboe
