What You Need
To complete all the parts of this tutorial, you need the following:
Â
Digital video on one of the devices listed in the table on page 7, or video stored on
your computer’s hard disk or an external hard disk connected to your computer with
a FireWire cable.
Â
At least several gigabytes (GB) of storage space available on your computer’s hard
disk or on an external hard disk connected by a FireWire cable. (The amount you’ll
need depends on the video file format you’re using. Check the instructions for
importing video from your recording device for more detail.)
If you don’t have any video available, you can still create a slideshow using photos
from your iPhoto library. Experiment and have fun as you learn how to get started
with iMovie.
