iMovie

Good evening, I am now starting to use iMovie with my Mini Mac. I would like to cut my amateur videos into various parts without making changes or editing.

The difficulty I have is to export a part of the video.

Thank you very much.

iMovie file exports are massive Yes, there are a lot of questions and answers that I found about this - both here and by googling. Generally, the answers are long lectures about how file size is determined by compression, video quality, length, etc... I understand all of that. But there must be some simple way of fixing this problem. I have a file of a zoom. it's over an hour long, 1680x1050, H.264. It's 164MB. I want to trim it down to make it shorter. I import it into iMovie (10.1.14, running on my MBP with OS 10.14.6). I cut out half of the video. I export it as 1080p, low resolution. The resulting file is over 860 MB. So I would like to use iMovie because there are a few specific edits that I need, but mainly I'm throwing away half of the data. Why is there no way of saving it, with those edits, without massively increasing the file size?

Separating one iMovie project into two i fully edited a 20 min video using imovie. how do i split this into two separate videos? like each video as its own separate project that i can then continue to edit separately (to fix the intro and ending for each)? And then each video gets saved as separate final video. Can I copy paste from one project board to a new one? Or it works in a different way?

Hello, Angelo!

Try to create a new project, place a selected part of your source video into timeline and then export this project.
