2011 Retreat: Movie Editing: Explore a Variety of Tools and Equipment

[Jenni Voorhees]

Explore the basics of video-editing and the range of tools
available. In this hands-on session, we will go through the
start-to-finish process producing a short movie–from
shooting to editing–to overlaying a soundtrack to posting
online. For comparison purposes, the process will be
carried out using Movie Maker and iMovie. We will have
both MiniDV camcorders and FlipVideos on hand and will
discuss the relative merits of the two.

Here's a link to a movie trailer that you can download & use to play with iMovie or Movie Maker.
