Topic: iMovie: Is it good?

I haven't made a Brickfilm in several years and don't remember how to use the programs I did back then.  I recently purchased a Macbook and was wondering if iMovie would be good for putting my movie together.  Is it relatively simple?  And if so, if I get good with the program are there a lot of advanced editing options?

Note: I'm using Monkeyjam on my PC (which is very slow) to capture the video, and plan to transfer them to my Mac where I want to do all the editing (since I can take it with me anywhere).

Thanks.

Re: iMovie: Is it good?

iMovie is pretty ok, but i suggest downloading iMovie HD because it has a timeline at the bottom, and editing is easier. i forget how to download it but you could search for a tutorial on youtube, if no luck, use iMovie. hope this was helpful mini/smile

I think iMovie is a swell program, and provides all the resources you need for editing a simple film.

I suggest iMovie HD, my friend has iMovie and I still can't figure it out! iMovie HD has a timeline and is very, very easy to add sound, edit, and add effects and titles.

Is iMovie HD an update to iMovie, and is it free?

the new iMovie is much easier to use but iMovie HD 6 comes up with better results. In my opinion iMovie HD is the best editing software out there!!!
