I chose to use IMovie instead of Adobe Spark in order to produce my capstone introduction video because I felt that it was easier to access across multiple devices and I liked the idea of being able to edit clips on my phone instead of having to sit down in front of a computer.
I was excited to get my clips uploaded and dropped into the iMovie platform but immediately I was frustrated with trying to insert video clips. I ran into a small issue that when I wanted to add a video clip into iMovie, if I tried to drag the clip from my camera roll directly into the movie timeline, it would insert as a picture. I did a couple google searches and one person recommended dragging the video file onto my computer first and then trying to add the clip into iMovie. Thankfully, this worked! The second issue I ran into was trying to add a voice note that I had previously recorded into iMovie. I recorded my reading of the script on my phone as a voice file using a native app. When I attempted to add the voice note as an audio clip in iMovie, on my phone, it was not available as an option. I was able to add music and other sound effects but voice notes or memos were not options. I opened up iMovie on my Mac book and I was able to upload the voice note as an audio clip for the video. So far I think that iMovie makes it very easy to add and manipulate pictures and video files but I still have a lot of work to do and I am interested to see what happens when I explore using transitions and inserting impactful text.
