Adding Video Effects in iMovie

Hi everybody, my name is Matt and I speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. You can also add effects to your video clips as well just like we did to our audio. So, make sure you that you have the editing tab at the bottom right selected. Then come up and select video effects on the top right tab. That will take you to this screen and select a clip and then selects a video effect it's going to give you a preview of what effect looks like. This is the aged film effect. Notice at the bottom you got some additional controls which you can fine tune the effect. With this you can add more getters and scratches and such things. Here?s an earthquake there's electricity. With the electricity you can click and drag where the in point of the lightening is. There is a lot of different effects you can use. If you go to adjust colors this is more useful effects. You can change the hue, the color and lightness of your video. When ever your happy with the effect all you have to do is click apply, go down to fog and click apply and that's going to automatically apply the effect to your video.
