Hi all,
I've got a fairly big movie and photo presentation I'm working on and need to get this right. I've noticed that some of my photo's in previous movie projects have been a little pixilated (like they were not imported at high enough res) and others were obviously too huge to import quickly and slowed everything right down.
I've read help, but it doesn't really seem to mention anything about the optimal format. Is there a way to import photo's from iPhoto completely stripped back to some common denominator or standard, good clear picture format but that doesn't take up too much processing time in iMovie?
Or does all this happen automatically, and my G5 just ran slow that day on some of the bigger photos? Assuming all the shots are over a certain minimal size for clarity (and assuming that the previously pixilated images were that way because maybe my wife resized them for emailing or something) does iMovie automatically convert them into some standard that I'm not aware of?
