I am trying to become one with iMovie. The area that confounds me is that of how iMovie uses Libraries and Projects to save clips. It is not intuitive that (as I understand it), iMovie might save my clips in the Project folder or the Media folder within a Library package and might even copy or move them to another Library package. For example, I think the clips that you dragged in are in the Project folder and the others are in Media folder. How does one understand all this? Any pointers?

Thank you - very useful tutorial.
Possibly too fast. Very hard to follow. Split into 2 clips may be more useful? Currently, it would leave a newbie dumbfounded.
Thanks for the short tutorial. I can easily repeat the video as I complete each task in the movie.
