Bringing your video into iMovie HD is easy. If you want, you can let iMovie HD's Magic iMovie feature automatically create a movie for you. Magic iMovie can import your footage from a DV or HDV video camera via FireWire and assemble it into a movie, complete with a title, transitions between scenes, and even a music track of your choosing. It can also automatically export your movie to iDVD as a project you can burn to a DVD disc. Making a movie has never been easier.
If you want more directorial control, you can also create your own iMovie HD project and simply click Import to transfer footage from your camera to your computer. iMovie supports importing a variety of video formats, such as standard definition video, widescreen digital video, high definition video, MPEG-4, and more. When importing from a camera connect by a FireWirecable, your video is captured in "clips" that you can edit, and you can control your camera directly from the iMovie HD window. You can also capture live video with your iSight and send it directly to iMovie HD. If you have an MPEG-4 camera or device, you can connect the camera via a USB cable, and when the device appears as a hard disk on your desktop, you can drag the footage into a project. If you have video or audio clips stored on your computer, you can also drag them into an iMovie HD project from your desktop.
