iMovie09 Video Tutorials

Imovie2

Do you have any cute kid(s) movies? 

Cute pet videos? 

Wondering how you can make those cool movies you see online or on the DVD a friend gave you?

We'll show you how. Step by step.

It has finally begun! The first two videos in our iMovie09 Series have been posted for members. 

1. Introduction and layout
2. Importing a Digital Movie (there are a number of ways actually...)

In the next video tutorial we start to build your first movie. This one will be a simple one to learn the basics. Then we will start adding in more options as the series progresses.

Once we have some movies under our belt we can move on to iDVD and other export methods and start getting our movie out for the world to see.

Two New Video Tutorials Available

We have released two new "casts" in our series on Rapidweaver. 

1. The iFrame page style.This page style for your website allows you to display any other webpage inside your site. This can also be useful for allowing someone else, who does not have access to your Rapidweaver application, to edit a page in our site. Find out how in the tutorial.

2. The Quicktime Movie Page Style. This Quicktime page style allows you to add a single movie to a single page in your website. You can set it to autoplay, show/hide controls, help protect it from being saved online by others (kiosk mode) and save for “fast start”.

New Video Tutorial - Rapidweaver Basics HTML Page

The next tutorial in our series covering the basics of Rapidweaver for easy web site creation is now live!

It has been a busy few months and we are now back to creating videos after a complete update to our site. Adding in the "classrooms" was part of that process to make it easier to follow along a set of posts on a subject.

Our goal was to make navigating and moving from one tutorial to the next in a series easy. We have warmed up the site colors too.

Ok, back to making videos. We have lots in store for you this year.

The Spinning Beach Ball of Death

 So you have an application that has frozen, or maybe your Mac has frozen up (it can happen, rarely, but it can...).

That glorious multi colored spinning beach ball of death is taunting you. What now?

1. As Douglas Adams would say, Don't Panic.
2. Watch this new tutorial on the solution: Force Quit.

It won't hurt, I promise!

A Modern Take on Those Photobooths
Photobooth
Did you know that your Mac has a built in photo and video capture application? Photobooth comes with our Mac and is named for those classic booths the seem to be found everywhere around amusement parks, boardwalks...

OK, I had to go on the video to make this short tutorial and overview. Photobooth is fun, but can be used for more than just playing. I can see using it to send short videos to friends and family, making a YouTube video, setting your image for Chat and System photo, and more.

Frontrow - Access Your Media in a Fun Way
Frontrow

Just posted, a new tutorial on Frontrow. If you've ever wondered why that little remote came with your Mac, wonder no longer.

Frontrow gives you quick and easy access to all your photos, music, videos, podcasts and more with a few clicks of that remote.

Tip: Guys, let the wife or girlfriend use it to choose once in a while... ;-)

If you have an AppleTV then you're already familiar with how easy this is to use.
