iMovie Ripping video from YouTube



__Period Overview__
We went over how to rip videos from YouTube and edit them using iMovie using the Mac Lab

To rip videos from YouTube:
We used the website: [|www.vixy.net] which is designed to convert flash video files Find the YouTube video you would like to use and copy the url into the box on the vixy page Select the conversion type and click "Start"

If this process doesn't work, you can also click "download YouTube videos as H.264" at the top right of the screen Then PC: right click and "save link as" Mac: Control+click and "save link as" This will save the video to the desktop

To use iMovie:
You can Import a video from a file or camera (under "File") The frames from the imported video will appear in the lower portion of the screen
 * Open iMovie (Star icon at the bottom of the screen)**

Click on frame and yellow border will select Drag the sides of the yellow border to select the exact portion you would like to use Then click on the selection and drag it to the upper area to add
 * To add imported video to your iMovie**

Manipulations can be made to the length of the segments by selecting sections to delete Each frame will have a link for the option to edit sound, crop, adjust brightness, etc. You can also add outside music or photos to the iMovie by dragging it onto the movie from its location on the computer.
 * Edit and add pizazz to your iMovie**

Under "Share" click on "Export Movie..." then choose the settings you would like for your finished movie.
 * When finished making your iMovie**
