    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

I have never used iMovie for something like this, but I believe that there is a Button for "Ken Burns Effect" which is the effect you are describing, see if you can uncheck that box and you should have non zooming pictures while keeping your theme.

Okay, so I found the button, but can I remove the effect on a "themed" sequence without starting over?

If you don't want the pan and zoom effect applied to an image, make sure you deselect the Ken Burns Effect checkbox in the Photo Settings window before you add the photo to your movie.

If you add motion to a photograph in your movie and then change your mind, you can remove the pan and zoom from it.

To remove the pan and zoom effect from a photo in your movie:

Select the image in the clip viewer or timeline viewer.
Click the Media button, click Photos at the top of the Media pane, and then click Show Photo Settings.
In the Photo Settings window, deselect the Ken Burns Effect checkbox.
Click Apply.

So to answer your question, no - you shouldn't to start over from scratch.
