iMovie Themes

[Imran23]

Hi, I am sort of making this picture montage video in which there is a before and after part. I need sort of like a iMovie theme (such as bulletin board, comic book etc) which allows me to show two picture in one frame for a few second and do fancy transactions too. Any suggestions?

Are you real familiar with imovie?
Do you know about tools, transition's and for what you might be needing is "picture in picture"?
To kinda answer your question about 2 differant theme's that imovie can offer, be put into the same Project. As far as i know, you can only pick one per project, Although you can make two projects (with differant themes), and combine them into one. I hope that helps, i just don't know how much you know about imovie to tell you more.

First pick a theme, like Photo Album. Once you have made some titles using the themes, you need to apply a picture in picture or a side by side effect depending on your needs. Then adjust the effect length to how long you need it. Below are video tutorials on how to do all the things I explained.
