3 Video Clips »Video clips are segments of footage that you select and manipulate in iMovie HD as you build and edit your movie. »If you copy a section of video, or separate the audio from one piece of your footage and paste it elsewhere, those pieces are also called clips. »Information about a clip is shown at the top of each clip in the clip viewer and the Clips pane. The number in the top-left corner of the clip indicates its length in minutes: seconds:frames. »Video clips are segments of footage that you select and manipulate in iMovie HD as you build and edit your movie. »If you copy a section of video, or separate the audio from one piece of your footage and paste it elsewhere, those pieces are also called clips. »Information about a clip is shown at the top of each clip in the clip viewer and the Clips pane.

4 Frames »A single still image in a video clip is called a "frame."  Movies are made up of a series of frames. »When you move the playhead to a frame, the frame's location in the movie is displayed above the playhead.  The location 01:08:15 shows that the frame occurs 1 minute, 8 seconds, and 15 frames into the movie. »The number of movie frames (or images) that flash across the screen each second as you watch a movie is called the frames per second (fps), or "frame rate." »A single still image in a video clip is called a "frame."  Movies are made up of a series of frames. »When you move the playhead to a frame, the frame's location in the movie is displayed above the playhead.  The location 01:08:15 shows that the frame occurs 1 minute, 8 seconds, and 15 frames into the movie. »The number of movie frames (or images) that flash across the screen each second as you watch a movie is called the frames per second (fps), or "frame rate."

5 Clip Viewer »The clip viewer below the iMovie monitor displays clips in the order that they will appear in your movie. »It gives you a simple, straightforward view of the clip sequences and transitions used in your movie. »You can easily drag clips to rearrange them or add clips to the clip viewer by dragging them from the Clips pane. »You can also drag video files from the Finder desktop into the Clip viewer. »The clip viewer below the iMovie monitor displays clips in the order that they will appear in your movie. »It gives you a simple, straightforward view of the clip sequences and transitions used in your movie. »You can easily drag clips to rearrange them or add clips to the clip viewer by dragging them from the Clips pane. »You can also drag video files from the Finder desktop into the Clip viewer.
