iMovie soundtrack

[Broderick]

Hi, all. I have compiled a set of movie clips for educational purposes. I want to use a song that comes from the soundtrack of another movie. I placed the song clip in iTunes, but the visual clip is present as well. I'm new to all this; can anyone let me know where to go from here?

I'm not sure if regular Quicktime does this, but if you open it with QT Pro, you can select the audio track, copy it, create a new file in QT and paste the audio into it. You can then crop down to the song's beginning and end, then save.
