I'm working on my documentary right now, and I'm having trouble importing a photo that's from the internet into my project. I tried the "save image as" method, and I tried to take a screenshot of it, and then drag the screen shot into iMovie. I'm not sure why it won't work, as I've dragged other screenshots into it before. The image isn't vital, but I wanted to use it so I had more visuals that weren't the interviewees talking. I even tried taking a screen shot of a screen shot, but that didn't work, either.
Another problem I just discovered is that some of my clips that aren't supposed to have their own sound because they are when I do the voiceover are now not muted. I had them muted before, but now they play sound and won't let me adjust the audio. No idea what would make this happen! Actually, it seems like it's not letting me make any changes to my movie at all...I don't see what I could have done to cause this. I'll probably have to email Professor Bae to ask for help, because I don't see how I can fix it so I can proceed working on it.
Phew! After restarting iMovie, everything seems to be working. I guess I always have to remember that when something goes wrong, simply restart the program. I also just figured out a problem I was having with my voiceovers. When I would insert an image or video in between two clips of the interviewee talking, with her various carrying on during the image/video part, her voice would fade in and out. I didn't realize I had to manually make sure that did not happen.
I've been trying to think about what I want in terms of background music, but so far I haven't been able to come up with something I want to use. I'm also not sure if there will only be music in the intro and beginning, or if it should be spread throughout. I've got to figure this out pretty soon!
