Apple iMovie HD - Manual (Page 28)

28 Chapter 3 Creating Your First Movie
After you add video clips, photos, and titles to your movie, you can add transitions
between clips so the scenes change smoothly from one to another, or change in
interesting ways. For example, you might have one scene dissolve into the next.
To add a transition between clips, click the Trans button. The Transitions pane appears.
Click a transition to select it and specify how long you want the transition to take. You
can then drag the transition to the clip viewer and place it between two clips.
iMovie HD may take a few moments to create, or “render,” the transition, during which
time you see a red line moving on the transition. Once the transition is rendered, you
can play the movie and see how your scenes change. You can select and change your
transitions later, too.
Drag a transition into
your movie.
