Apple posted updates to the iLife ’08 suite of applications on Wednesday, with the most significant changes coming to iMovie.
The iMovie update includes:
- Multiple Clip Selection
Select multiple clips in order to assign keywords, paste adjustments or reorganize clips in your project faster than ever. - Fine Tuning
Quickly refine the start or end frame for any clip without leaving the Project view. - Still Frame Creation
Freeze the action for creating a dramatic ending or applying the ?Ken Burns? effect on any frame of your video clip. - Frame-by-Frame trimming
Adjust each clip to the perfect start or end frame using frame-by-frame precision trimming. - Audio Ducking level control
Dip music tracks and background tracks to the perfect level as voice over or other audio comes in and out of your movie. - Manual Audio Fades
Make smoother sounding audio transitions by manually adjusting the fade duration. - Performance Improvements
Enjoy you video more quickly by switching between any of your Events. - Set Duration for Transitions and Stills
Change the duration of photos or length of your transitions without accessing Preferences. - Show Current Playhead Time
Get duration or timing information at a glance as you skim through your Events or movie.
I hope this means we can expect an update for iWork soon.
