- iMovie has just had a major update that brings with it two awesome new features. The first of these, Magic Movie, is covered in this short and easy-to-follow tutorial video.
We all know about the Memories feature in Photos, where your device will automatically make a little highlights video of an event or occasion. Magic Movie is similar to this, but with an absolute ton more customisability. You can select media and iMovie will use clever Machine Learning to make a Magic Movie out of it. Then you can edit each clip, add a theme, titles and soundtrack. It's great as a 30-second tap-and-done or as a more in-depth starting point for an edit.
Also new in iMovie is the Storyboard Mode. I've made another video about that here: • Plan + Create Videos u...

Does anyone know how to edit the transitions in a magic movie?
This is bloody brilliant! A.I is amazing, but scary at the same time. Wonderful tutorial thank you from Australia ❤️🇦🇺
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Jacob. This looks good. 👍🏻
This is so amazing you are really good at this😮
Great video ❤
I really like how you explain things. Nice & simple
Thank you, that's really kind! I'm a primary school teacher by day so I'm used to explaining things nice and simply!
awesome man can't wait for the storyboard episode
Thanks! It won't be long, should be up in the next couple of hours.
Hi, Jacob
Really like your video and the way you explain all things.
I am having some problem with adjusting the speed of a video.
Can you help?
Thank you! This is a very informative video. I’m new at editing videos and have been using iMovie on my phone & Mac, but they both must be older versions as they don’t have the features you show in this video. I’m considering getting an iPad to create & edit videos, what version do you use or what would you recommend?
Bro ceep it up
Nice
Thanks
Thank you for teaching. I notice some of the photos or clips have transitions followed, but some are not. Can I add transition?
I have the same question
Is there a way to change the focal point of a photo or video using Magic Movie? When I try and do it, it shows the top half of the photo which is just the background, and I can’t change the focus to the actual product image. Is there a way to pinch and zoom etc. using this feature? Thank you!
How did you create this video with your face talking on the side? That’s pretty cool… Great stuff
I really want to know it, too :)
Hi
I’ve imported 65 pix and magic movie does not show them in the chronological order. Is there a way to reverse the order? It’s magic okay but the film created starts with the end of the event… it’s really not convenient. I’ve tried to import in both orders but the result is similar, the last picture comes first and moving them one by one is no longer magic!
Thanks for your help
Can it make a movie in portrait mode 16:9? Is that adjustable?
How do I change smooth transition from one clip to next ? it dose not allow me to change the transition . Some of it has A star between two clips and some has a straight line. I want to make it all in start so transition from one clip to another looks smooth ? Please help.
How do you make it stop with the Ken Burns edit. It bothers me so much. It’s all zoomed in on my videos and I can only see the sky when there are actual people in the frame below. Since the update- I don’t see an option to remove the Ken burns zoom in and out feature anymore. So frustrating.
Hi I am trying to add music to my movies that is just created however the audio doesn't play.. the volume button is grayed out at the bottom. I am using iphone11. Can you please help?
Thank you. Is it available on Mac or only on iPad and iPhone?
Annoyingly it's iPad and iPhone only for the time being. There was an iMovie update for Mac but it only lets you open those projects - not create them.
I hope it's something that changes in the future.
hey! so i am trying to make a magic movie but no matter the order i select the videos in they are in backwards chronological order, do you know an easy fix? i know i can move the video around but that would take at least an hour
I’d be very interested in this fix as well.
Me too
The app shows the timeline for each clip but decides not to use it. I have to believe it is a bug rather than a feature otherwise it's not worth bothering with
So I’ve seen a few comments about this and I’ve been trying to figure it out myself. I’ve made about 8 different Magic Movies now and I’ve not had that problem on any of them. It definitely seems like a bug to me! You can send the iMovie team a message here (www.apple.com/feedback/imovie-ios-ipados.html) and they’ll hopefully get it fixed for a future update. I’ve sent them big reports before on that link and they have been good at getting them fixed so 🤞🏻!
Me too
I’m finding that you can only add an audio file to the whole project not individual clips. The audio file (music) has no separate way of editing like IMovie on the Mac. Soundtracks Aldo is just for the whole project. Do I have this right?
I’m having the same issue, just plays the same audio file over and over
How do you extend the length of the magic movie? I have extended each one of the clips but the overall movie is just over one minute. I want it to be longer
@Kat Gem Creations Thank you. I did that. I went to each segment and extended it to the length I wanted to be but the overall video was just over a minute long. It's frustrating. I have tried so many times. I think there is a bug in the system. Thank you for your advise.
iMovie is taking my clips in the wrong way, the last are shown first in the magic movie. How to resolve that
Please let me know if you find a fix for this. So annoying…
Yes, this is a real problem!
How can you import from an external hard drive? When looking to add media, it seems to only offer iPhoto as the location…thanks
I've just been exploring that myself and I don't see any way to do it! You can import from the Files App (and therefore an External Drive) on a normal iMovie Timeline project, but not on the Magic Movies or Storyboards. This seems like a bit omission to me.
I'm going to file it as Feedback to iMovie, I suggest you do the same! www.apple.com/feedback/imovie.html
Hi
Hi I choose pics from my album but some pics were showing only half of the middle part. How can I edit so that I can see the whole pic in the movie. Thanks
He doesn’t say in the video??? That’s the reason I came here

Did anybody figure out how to change transitions in the Magic Movie?
Is there a way you can use transitions in magic movie.
I have same issue. I see some transitions automatically there, but not every photo or clip.
Yeah my is backwards so yeah you have a fix?
I would like to know too…
I hope the export quality has improved as it was rubbish before compared to screen flow
I believe you can export in 4K now if that helps?
@@iPhoneQuickTips its not the resolution but the very poor export quality ( its heavily compressed and crushed blacks etc )
Too bad that so many genius ever can’t imagine à way to change the format of a « magic» movie.
When you import your photos, the imovie result is everything but magic.
Show your actual face
That’s what I’m saying
