Reader Brad Bauer seeks advice for grapple still persona in his iMovie labor . He write :
When load image in iPhoto to create an iMovie project for a friend , is there a way to delete these spell exposure from my iPhoto library without having to select them individually ? They mix in with my personal photos and it ’s meter - consuming to remove them .
There ’s a common misconception that just because iMovie has a Photos browser app that displays an iPhotos entrance , adding your photos to iPhoto and then using this Photos browser app is the only boulevard for accessing your image . Not so .
Make the Media browser more useful by dragging folders to it.
If you do n’t desire your iPhoto library to be cluttered with images you have no interest in keeping , do n’t import the photos into iPhoto in the first home . Rather , cast away them into a brochure somewhere and when you ’re ready to localize the images in iMovie , drag them from the brochure direct into the iMovie project .
Make the Media internet browser more utile by dragging folder to it .
It ’s also worth note that the various iLife and iWork applications ’ Media internet browser is n’t sacred or exclusive . you could drag folders full of files into these browsers ’ panes . For example , we recycle transcribed flake of audio and still paradigm for the Macworld Podcast . Rather than gunk up my iPhoto and iTunes libraries with this material , I ’ve make a central Macworld Podcast Assets brochure . Within that folder I ’ve make separate folders for the sound and picture files . I ’ve dragged those pamphlet into GarageBand ’s Media browser app earn those assets uncommitted to me without the muss or fuss of compass through my iPhoto or iTunes depository library . Same mind with iMovie — drag folders full of the material you involve into the browser app and you ’re done .
And when you ’ve finished with that material it ’s easily bump off . Just select it and Right ( Control ) select it and choose the Remove control .
