Update:

  • Another link to the WLMM created demo video:  <link>
  • And here's a link to a iMovie demo video done with the same input files for comparison:  <link>

I did the iMovie one in 10 minutes even though I'm not comfortable on an iMac like I am on Windows.  I've never used iMovie before, it's very comparable to WLMM in ease of use though has many more features. The biggest challenge was figuring out the Apple way of doing things vs. the Windows way.  Example: there is no “Save Movie” in iMovie; it’s “Share.”  <grin>  Took me awhile to find that.

As expected, YouTube detected my use of copyrighted material, specifically the sound track. That means it can't be monetized, I can't receive money for uploading it.  It was blocked in one territory, "Russia."
