    OSX crash during iMovie export

    I have a strange problem. When I want to export my most recent project from iMovie to iTunes, the process stops and forces a reboot of the computer. If I export to a movie file, iMovie crashes. Each time. Now the funny part. I run OSX El Capitan 10.11.6 from external SSD on a 2012 basic Mac...

    iPad Can you do serious video editing on iPad?

    I have a music video project that will require me to take 25 different videos and edit them together.

    Universal Voiceover app for iMovie? (where voiceover is recorded first)

    I'm working on some woodworking tutorial videos in iMovie, and I'd like to record a voiceover first, then grab clips from various devices to add where appropriate. Currently, I'm using iMovie to add voiceover clips. It's working well, *until* I start dragging the video clips around. I'd...

    I am an illustrator for 20 years, but I have begun to animate in Photoshop lately. I am new to the animation timeline and don't know all the tricks. I've brought in large jpeg images as objects, which need to be a great deal larger than the 1280x720px aspect ratio because I am zooming into a...

    Brush out errors, like in Pixelmator

    My home made movie has the umbrella of the light showing in one top corner. If this were a photo I could brush it out. Can you do the same in a movie?
