Previewing Your Project

When you want to see what your project looks like, you have several options:

  • Slide the mouse pointer over all your video clips in your project.

  • Select ViewPlay from Beginning or press the spacebar.

  • Click anywhere over a video clip and then click the Play button.

The upper-right corner of the iMovie window shows how your project will appear, including titles and transitions. When everything looks perfect, you can share it with others by selecting the Share menu and choosing a way to share your movie project, such as posting it on YouTube or Facebook or exporting it as a video file that you can store on your hard disk.
