soberle"When you begin a new iMovie project, you have a choice of creating a movie or a trailer. A trailer follows a template to create a Hollywood-style movie advertisement. iMovie for iOS has 14 trailer templates, and each has its own musical score and graphics. To make your own trailer, choose a template, insert your text, and fill each shot with a video or photo.
Each template has a different number of text screens and shots. Each shot is typically on the screen for only a second or two, so a one-minute trailer requires about two dozen shots.
Students and teachers are making trailers to do things like demonstrate their learning, explain vocabulary words, document experiments, preview novels or textbook chapters, summarize historical events and promote school activities. " -

Here are a few trailers made by teachers and students. Next to each one is the iMovie trailer template it uses. -

Plan a Better iMovie Trailer with These PDFs
-
- Use as few words as possible. Trailers are fast-paced and text is never on the screen for very long.
- Shoot or choose photos and videos in landscape (horizontally). Vertical videos and photos will have black bars on the sides of the screen.
- Need to include more text in your trailer than what the template accommodates? Use Skitch, Phonto or some other app to place text on top of an image. Splice for iOS is a great choice if you want to put words on top of a video (and you can of course do this in a regular iMovie project).
- Looking for copyright friendly images? Use Haiku Deck. Insert the image you want into a Haiku Deck slide and take a screenshot. Don’t forget to give attribution for the photo.
- Speaking of Haiku Deck, that’s another great choice for putting words on an image. Simply take a screenshot of a slide you’ve worked up in Haiku Deck and use that in your iMovie trailer project.
- Movie trailers follow a very specific format. Each shot is on the screen for just a second or two, and never longer than 4 seconds. So if a movie trailer doesn’t fit your content, you should probably choose to make a regular movie project.
- There are other apps that can scaffold your movie-making by providing a format to follow. These include Directr and Videolicious.
- iMovie comes free with a Mac and you might be able to get iMovie for iPad for free. iPads purchased after September 1, 2013 and running iOS 7 or later are able to download iMovie at no cost. Read how this works. Sorry, iMovie is only available for iOS and Macintosh.
Before you get to planning your next trailer, here are some tips:
In case you were wondering, I created the PDFs using Pages and then used the Create Forms Fields for Page feature in PDFpenPro for Mac.
