Drag the selection to the spot in your movie where the cutaway begins, dropping it directly onto the clip.įrom the pop-up menu that appears, choose Cutaway ( Figure 4.21).

In the Event browser, select a section of clip you want to use as the cutaway.

That makes implementing a scene like this vastly easier than chopping clips and inserting other clips to accomplish the same task. iMovie offers just one video track-or does it? Although it's not immediately obvious, iMovie does support a second video track for things like cutaways and picture-in-picture effects. If you've used a video editor such as Final Cut Express, you may miss the capability to overlay clips on multiple video tracks.

Cutaways are also frequently used as a clever way to hide visual flubs: If you're watching an interview and the camera cuts to the interviewer asking a question, chances are the subject being interviewed had to scratch his or her nose or take a drink of water just then.

That clip is called a cutaway, and it's easy to create in iMovie.

For example, someone is being interviewed, and while you listen to them describe a place they visited, the image switches to video of that place. A common video editing technique is to cut between scenes while a consistent section of audio plays.
