All your frustration about iMovie
In out art class at school we currently have filmmaking (more or less serious) as the topic. And we use iMovie. The exam is supposed to be a practical one. We get some video clips and are supposed to make a short video out of it.
I am a Premiere Pro user and when I first used iMovie it felt like I had to throw up. Like what the hell. Seriously. What kind of steaming pile of utterly useless garbage is that software
The timeline. What the hell are those gaps with the vertical line in it between clips? And why are they only for the video? If I add music below it, the gaps are not there. How am I supposed to sync my cuts with the song?
Why can't I move one clip away from another one to create a blank space between them? The clip always snaps back to next to the previous one.
When I set in and out points on a clip before putting it in the timeline and accidentally click on another clip, my in and out points are gone? Why?
I could keep on ranting (missing features, imprecise editing tools...) but I want to hear all your frustration with iMovie. Am I the only one with these problems?
