• Point out sharing options

With iPhoto ’11, it’s easy to create beautiful-looking photo messages without leaving the application.

Let’s click on the flagged album.

In the bottom right-hand corner, there’s a Share button that makes it easy to order prints and post photos to a MobileMe Gallery, a Flickr account, or Facebook page. You can also share photos by email.

With iPhoto ’11, you can create beautiful photo emails. With eight different themes to choose from, you can find the perfect one for the occasion.

Let’s choose the Postcard theme. iPhoto automatically lays out your photos in the template frames. Because iPhoto uses face detection, the photos are automatically positioned in each frame.

After you’ve selected the theme, it’s easy to customize the look of your photo email. You can easily rearrange the photos simply by dragging and dropping them. If you click a photo, you get a zoom slider. Move the slider to zoom in, then drag the picture to pan around it.

You can replace the text too, to make it your own. Just click the text and type in your own title and message.

When you’re ready to send the email, click the To field and start typing. iPhoto uses Address Book to autofill email addresses as you type.

Since iPhoto keeps track of your email messages with photos, it’s easy to open a sent message, make changes and share it with someone new.

You must configure an email address on this computer in order to demo this feature. From iPhoto Preferences, select Accounts, then enter your email address. For a MobileMe account, complete the MobileMe ASTO course.

Movie Trailers

• Click Project Library

• Double-click Rafting Trailer

• Play back in full screen

• Press the Esc key to exit

• From the File menu, select New

• Point out the 15 new templates

• Choose Blockbuster

• Name the project

• Change frame rate to 24 fps

• Click Create

With iMovie ’11, it’s easy to create Hollywood-style trailers from your own home movies.

Let’s start out by looking at the finished trailer.

Doesn’t that look great?

So let’s start this from the beginning so you can see how quick and easy it is to make your own.

We’ll start a new project and select a trailer theme. There are 15 to choose from in lots of different genres: adventure, romantic comedy and more.

Let’s choose the Blockbuster theme and give our project a name.

• In the Outline tab:

–Type movie name

– Add a release date

– Fill in cast members names

– Choose logo style

The first tab in the template contains the production information. This is where you can play at being a producer! Fill in a release date, cast names and even a studio logo.

Some of the information will be filled in automatically from your contacts or you can click a field and fill it in yourself.

Now let’s start looking at clips to add in.

• Click the Storyboard tab

• Click the Landscape placeholder

• Click the clip of friends driving on the bridge

• Add another two Landscape clips

• Continue clicking clips that match placeholders

• Stop at the Group placeholder

The Storyboard tab contains placeholders with suggested clip types, as well as titles and a soundtrack recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra.

The video clips are here, in the Event Browser. You can move the pointer over the clip to preview it.

To get started, simply select the first placeholder, which—in this case—is suggesting a landscape shot. Simply click a clip to fill the placeholder with the video.

Let’s continue clicking clips to fill the placeholders. And as easily as that we’re already building the trailer.

Movie Trailers (continued)

• For the first Group placeholder, click the magnifying glass icon

• Point out People Finder keyword filters

• Add a Group clip from the Event browser

• Continue adding clips until you reach the end of the project

(An orange line through a clip indicates that it has already been used.)

For this part of the trailer, the theme is suggesting a group shot. To help find a group shot quickly, let’s use People Finder, which analyzes video for faces and identifies the parts that have people in them.

Here are the keywords that iMovie has automatically added to the video. With the group placeholder selected, iMovie now filters the video to show only clips with groups of people in them.

Let’s select a clip.

Because the keywording function is automatically tied into the Storyboard, as soon as another placeholder needs to be filled, the filter automatically changes to show the type of shot needed.

• Click Done

• Click the Full Screen playback button

• Click the Share menu

• Point out sharing options

• Select iTunes

• Point out options and HD options

Let’s add in the remaining clips and when we’re done, let’s play it back in full screen.

It looks great!

Now, you’ll want to share your trailer with the world. You can easily share it by sending it to Facebook, YouTube, MobileMe, or Vimeo directly from iMovie.

And to sync your trailer with your Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, select iTunes. Here are all the options you can choose from.

With iMovie, you can quickly and easily create a Hollywood-style movie trailer of your home video.

Powerful Audio Editing

• Click the Project Library button

• Open the Snow Wars project

• Click the Play button

• Click the Audio Waveform button in the lower-right corner of the Project browser

• (If audio plays back as you skim clips, click the Audio Skimming icon to deactivate it)

• Point out the horizontal volume line

• In clip 1, drag the volume bar up to 500%

• Play back the clip

• Drag the fade handles to fade in and out

What’s a great movie without a great audio track to go with it? With iMovie ’11 you’ve got powerful audio editing in really easy to use tools.

Let’s take a look at this project here. There are only a few clips but as it plays back you’ll notice that the audio needs adjusting.

First, let’s turn on the audio waveforms for this project. At a glance, you can see what part of the audio might be too soft and what part might be too loud.

This first clip is too soft. To increase the volume, simply drag the volume bar up and instantly you can see the changes you’ve made to the audio.

Let’s play that back.

You can also easily set the audio to fade in and out just by dragging the fade handles.

• Click and drag within the audio waveform area to select the range containing the three orange audio peaks in clip 2

• Lower the volume of the selection to ~50%

• Play back the clip

This second clip has the opposite problem. These colors indicate that the audio is peaking, that it’s too loud.

Instead of changing the volume of the whole clip, let’s click and drag to select just the loudest part and then drag the volume bar down. Notice how the waveforms change in just the selected part.

• Double-click clip 3

• Click the Audio Effect chooser

• Hover over various effects to preview

• Click Pitch Down 3

• Click Done

• Click Play

iMovie ’11 also has audio effects which are a really great way to give a whole new sound to the clip.

Simply double-click a clip to bring up the clip Inspector, and click the Audio Effects chooser button.

If you hold your pointer over the various effects, you can preview what your clip will sound like after you select.

Then just click to add it.

iMovie ’11 makes it really easy to adjust audio and add in cool audio effects.

Reset the audio back to its original state. Double-click a clip to open the clip Inspector. Clips 1 and 2: Click the Audio tab, then click Revert to Original. Clip 3: Click the Clip tab, then click Audio Effects and select None.

One-Step Effects

• Click the Project Library button

• Double-click the Ethan at the Gym project

• Click the Play button

• In the clip where Ethan is performing a handstand flip, click and drag to select Ethan jumping

• From the Clip menu, select Instant Replay (50%)

• Place the playhead before the clip and press the space bar to play

With iMove ’11, you can apply sophisticated visual effects in a click.

Here’s a fairly typical home video: it’s simply some favorite clips in a sequence.

Let’s make this into something a little more special. We’ll start with the second clip where Ethan is doing a handstand flip.

Let’s select the most exciting part of that clip, from when Ethan jumps, to just as he lands, and add in the Instant Replay effect.

In one step, the effect is added, automatically replaying and slowing down the part of the clip.

Let’s play that back.

• In the clip where Ethan is spinning his legs, click and drag to select the second half of the clip

• From the Clip menu, select Fast Forward (2x)

• In the clip where Ethan is doing backflips, select a few of the backflips from the middle of the clip

• From the Clip menu, select Rewind

• In the last clip with all of the kids jumping, select from the time the kids are about to jump to the time they are all in the air

• From the Clip menu, go to Special Effect and select Flash and Hold Last Frame

Let’s add a few more effects to different clips.

On this clip where Ethan is spinning, we’ll select a portion and add a Fast Forward effect.

For the clip where he’s doing back flips, let’s set a rewind.

And finally, for the last clip where the kids are jumping, we’ll add a special effect called a Flash and Hold Last Frame.

• Point out edits

• Play the project from the beginning* * Delete this edited version of the project after completing all the steps.

As you can see, each of the steps was added simply by selecting a clip or a portion of a clip and just choosing the effect. For many of these effects, iMovie had to split clips, add graphics and change timing, so they are fairly complex edits to do. But with iMovie ’11, each one was done in just one step.

Let’s play this back to view the effects all together.

With One Step Effects, iMovie makes it easy to make your home movies even more entertaining.

Before you deliver this demo, make a copy of the original Ethan at the Gym project so that you always have an unedited version for the next demo. In the Project Library, Control-click the Ethan at the Gym project and select Duplicate Project.

iMovie ’11 comes with project themes that make it easy to turn your home video into a polished, broadcast-news segment or sports highlights reel.

Let’s start with the Sports theme. I’ve already applied the sports theme to this project. Notice how iMovie has automatically added in titles, transitions, and graphics that make the movie look complete?

This clip here is a great shot of Brianna going for the goal. Let’s add in an overlay where we can use the player statistics information.

iMovie also has a Sports Team editor that lets you add in team names and logos and player names, pictures, and statistics.

This one is already set up but it’s very easy to do yourself.

The player’s photo and statistics all show up in the graphic overlay, adding professional polish to the video.

Let’s finish watching this project.

Let’s take a look at another theme. This one is the News theme. It’s great for reports or for announcing family events such as births or graduations.

Notice the rich graphics, transitions, and other effects, such as picture-in-picture, and multiple audio tracks with voice and background music.

When your project has multiple elements like this, you might want to view it in the Single Row view and even swap Events and Projects to make the most of your display.

When you’re ready to share, send the video straight to Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo, or your CNN iReport account for broadcast on the web.

Reset the project back to its original state. In the Icebreaker Soccer project, delete the player statistics overlay on clip 3. Set the layout so that the project window is on top and Single Row view is turned off.

Flex Time

• Click File > Open

• Choose Flex Time Demo

• Press the Space bar, then play the entire project

GarageBand ’11 has powerful tools to help musicians sound better. Let’s take a look at Flex Time which lets you quickly fix timing mistakes in your audio recordings.

Let’s listen to this. You’ll notice how those two guitar chords sound a bit off rhythm.

• Click the left edge of the fourth waveform and drag it to the left

• Click the left edge of the fifth waveform and drag it to the left

• Move the playhead back to the beginning

• Press the Space bar to play it back

• Click the cross-hair above the edit point in the third waveform in bar 2

• Repeat the original edit and move the waveform back into place

To fix we’ll just double-click on this region to bring it up in the waveform editor.

With Flex Time, you can just click and drag right on the waveform to move things around. Notice that as I drag them, they don’t affect the good parts of the recording.

Let’s play that back and see how it sounds. Flex Time is also perfect when you want to get a little creative. This final chord sounds great, but it would have been better if it rang out a bit longer.

• Click the edge of the last waveform and drag longer

Now, you can simply drag that final chord out so it sounds just the way you wished you had recorded it.

Groove Matching

• Launch GarageBand

• Click File > Open

• Choose Groove Matching Demo

• Press the Space bar, then play the song for 9 bars

• Rewind to the beginning of the project

With Groove Matching, you can match the timing of the entire band with a single click.

Let’s use this project. Here is a recording of some younger musicians and they are having trouble keeping up to the drums. The drum track is an Apple Loop here in blue, purple tracks are real instruments and green are software instruments.

• Click the Solo button on the Drums track

• Press the Space bar, then play the song for 3 bars

• Click the Solo button on both Rhythm guitars

• Press the Space bar, then play the song for 6 bars

• Option-click the Solo button on both Rhythm guitars

I’ll solo the drums and guitars and you can immediately hear that the drum loop is perfect but that the other instruments are not playing correctly in time.

• Move the pointer over the image on the Drums track

• Click the star icon to set the Groove Track

• Press the Space bar

• Point out the changes to the rhythm of the recording

• Point out the checkboxes on the other tracks

We can fix that in one step.

We can choose any of these tracks to be the Groove track. Let’s select the drum loop since you typically want to groove match with something that has a steady consistent beat.

GarageBand has instantly analyzed the rhythmic groove and human feel of the drums and applied that groove to all the other recordings in the song.

And now when we play it back, it sounds much much better. Groove Matching is like an automatic spell checker for bad rhythm.

Guitar Amps and Stompboxes

• Click File > Open

• Choose Guitar Amp Demo

• Press the Space bar to play the song

• Press the Space bar to stop after the first track

With GarageBand, you don’t need a studio full of expensive gear. With Guitar Amps and Effects built right in, GarageBand ’11 turns your Mac into an incredible guitar rig.

You can easily reproduce the sounds of the most revered amps in the world and the sounds of classic foot pedals

Let me show you a few. The first track of this project is a clean electric guitar sound with no added effects or processing. It’s rather uninspiring.

• Press the Space bar to play the second track (“Octane Stack”)

• Press the Spacebar after the second track

• Play the rest of the project

• Click each track to show the amp in the Track Info pane

Let’s play that same guitar part, processed through the Octane Stack, one of the 12 guitar amps in GarageBand.

It’s pretty amazing to hear the difference it makes! Let’s play through some other guitar tracks that have been processed with different amps.

As you listen to the track playing, I’ll click the track and you’ll see an image of the amp.

With GarageBand you can choose from 12 different amps and 15 stompboxes. Customize each of them, then save the settings to create your own unique sound.

New Lessons for Guitar and Piano

• Close the previous project

• Click Learn to Play

• Click Piano Lessons

• Scroll down and double-click Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

GarageBand not only helps you make music, it teaches you how to play guitar and piano right on your Mac. Included with GarageBand are 40 basic lessons that cover blues and rock guitar, classical and pop piano, and more.

This is the Learn to Play interface and it’s really simple to understand.

• Click Play to show the video intro

• Click Play again to stop the video

• Click and drag the playhead to skim through the video

• Point out Record and “How Did I Play?”

Here, we’ve got the instructor presented in beautiful HD, and this animated instrument area so you can see where to place your fingers. The bottom part is devoted to controlling the lesson playback, cycling, and even speed control (so you can practice the song at your own pace, without any pressure).

Along the bottom are the lesson chapters. Move among them at any time by scrubbing the playhead along to any part so you can learn at your own pace

The piano keyboard shows where you should place your fingers in time to the teacher.

When you’re more comfortable, you can even practice by playing along with the band which is much more fun than playing with a boring metronome.

And when you click Record, GarageBand will tell you how well you’re playing, with a progress bar and performance meter. You can track your progress and beat your best score!
