As you can see in the video demo above by Randy Ubillos, chief architect of video applications at Apple, it’s a pretty elegant app that is optimized for the iPad 2’s touchscreen. The iPad 2 comes with a video camera on either side of the screen. The rear-facing camera can shoot high-definition video and record it onto your iPad. You can then use iMovie to turn that video into a movie within minutes.
The movie automatically appears inside the iMovie app. You can view different video projects easily by swiping across the screen. Tap a video and skim through it with your finger. Quickly patch videos together or go into a more precise editing mode. You can then merge two videos and create a transition between them as part of your movie.
You can tap the screen to add video segments or photos. Also add voice-over narration to the soundtrack by recording audio using the iPad’s microphone. You can export movies to Apple’s Camera Roll and then sync them back to a Mac or PC. You can also use Apple’s Digital AV Adapter (sold separately) to play a movie from the iPad 2 to the HDTV.
