12 Creating a Musical Score for an
iMovie or Video
GarageBand makes it easy to create music for your
iMovie projects and other video files.
You can work with an iMovie project or other QuickTime-compatible video file in a
GarageBand project, view the video as you create the score, add and edit markers, and
send the finished movie (containing both video and audio) to iDVD to burn to a DVD
or send it to iWeb to publish as a video podcast. You can also export it as a QuickTime
movie.
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to:
 Send an iMovie project to GarageBand
 Find and preview video files in the Media Browser
 Import a video file into a project
 View the video as you work
 Edit the video’s audio track
 Add and edit markers
 Add URLs, URL titles, and chapter titles to markers

 Export a movie as a QuickTime movie
Sending an iMovie Project to GarageBand
You can send an iMovie project from iMovie to GarageBand. When you send an iMovie
project, GarageBand opens and a new project is created that contains the iMovie
project. If GarageBand is already open, the current project closes before the new
project is created.
To send an iMovie project from iMovie to GarageBand:
m In iMovie, choose Share > GarageBand.
