Goal 1: What is iMovie? iMovie is a free Apple app available for download on any of your Apple Devices including your iPhone, iPad, and Mac book. In fact it comes downloaded on many of these devices already. Simply put, iMovie is a video editing software. iMovie is a powerful resource that helps beginners to produce professional looking videos. This program allows you to create, put together, edit, and enhance movies by adding audio, special effects, photos, titles, credits, and more in a relatively user-friendly interface. Import almost any photo, video, or audio file into iMovie and clip, crop, or edit them to be exactly what you dream of.
