It would make sense to merge the two apps, but they remain oddly separate. I still find it strange that Apple also has Clips, another video-editing program that lives parallel to iMovie. It actually seems like a helpful addition for someone as scattershot as me. At first glance, it seems like a video version of how projects can be organized in writing apps such as Scrivener. While the storyboarding lists might seem restrictive, they can be shuffled up or added to.
There are a bunch of templates - even one for "product reviews," which made me raise my eyebrows.
Storyboarding creates templates guiding various types of video projects, even down to shot types and length of shots. Once made, the automatically generated video edits can be re-edited or tweaked. Magic Movie does it by automatically compiling a movie out of a bunch of clips, similar to the way Apple automatically makes themed music-montage slideshows in its Photos app. The two big features, called Magic Movie and Storyboarding, both aim to make video edits easier in pretty spiritually different ways. Both new features look like they're trying to make the process of using iMovie less intimidating for infrequent video editors.Īpple first introduced these changes during its recent spring product event where the new iPad Air, iPhone SE and Mac Studio were announced. Will that make me more likely to use iMovie? I don't know yet. And, in one case, it'll do everything for you. Apple's latest iMovie update for iOS seems to be speaking to me: iMovie 3.0 introduces new modes that promise to make the video editing process a lot more automatic. I shoot a lot of video footage these days, but I don't do a lot of video edits.
