final preview


  1. i learned how to edit, cut, and jump to different clips using iMovie. i also learned the extent to which you can edit the clips even though iMovie is an extremely basic editing program. theres so much potential with using iMovie even though it isn't the most advanced.
  2. iMovie allows you to make edits to the quality of the video as well as the content, or what you want in it or what you don't
  3. i didn't know the extent of how much editing is capable through iMovie
  4. i'm concerned that i won't be capable of utilizing iMovie because i'm inexperienced so my final product might not reflect my potential
  5. i'm confident i'll be able to shoot all the shots/photos i'll need early
  6. i want to do a "documentation" of my friends' new band
