[QUOTE="droflex, post: 967902, member: 133682"] Strange you should brings this up. Within the last couple days I started playing with imovie 08 for the first time. I think I'm getting addicted. I had never done anything like that so at least you probably have the basics of editing going for you (I didnt know what a transition was). I created two different "projects" exactly as you describe. Slide shows of pictures with the music in the background. My first project took me 3 hours to make a 4 minute show because I didnt have a clue what I was doing but the second project took me about an hour 'cause I had figured out how to do a lot by then. The "Ken Burns" effect is really cool and makes a boring picture come-to-life. You can change the length of time a picture is displayed by selecting it and then right click to bring up a menu that says "set duration". You can also set the duration of the transitions. That's what I was doing to time the pictures to the music. There might be a different way but I dont know yet. Now that I have messed with imovie quite a bit it seems pretty easy but I dont have anything to compare it too. I've read that imovie HD (or imovie 06) was arguably the best imovie version because of the thousands of plug-ins that were available (Star Wars type text scrolling for example). Imovie 09 seems to have a lot of stuff put back in that 08 eliminated but I havent bought it yet. Heres some tutorials that I wish that I had found a couple days ago: [url]http://www.woopid.com/gvideos.php?gid=96[/url] [url]http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-in-imovie-08-/[/url] [url=http://web.me.com/jrwalker4/QuickNotes/iMovie_08-09/iMovie_08-09.html]Imovie ?08-?09 Video Tutorials[/url] [url]http://www.woopid.com/view_video.php?viewkey=80425155[/url] [/QUOTE]
