I'm trying to learn how to use iMovie, mainly for the ability to combine good quality audio with video. So many YouTube videos - mine included - will show someone playing a beautiful guitar through a beautiful amplifier, but because it's only picked up by a poor digital camera microphone, the viewer/listener is really not getting the full experience.

For my first such foray into iMovie, I took a stab at Nels Cline's solo from "Either Way", the first track off Wilco's "SKy Blue Sky". That's my super sweet 1965 Jaguar. Enjoy!

What are the key things you've learned about using iMovie?

Doing that short clip was more of a pain in the *** then it needed to be! My good friend (who does this sort of thing for a living) says I need to get Final Cut. I'm pretty fluent in Illustrator and Photoshop and he says it has more in common with those. I've used iWeb and now iMovie and I can't say I'm that big a fan of either. But they were free. :D
