iMovie supports Alpha channel (transparency in an image) so you can add a logo or other image to your movie. Very short tutorial shows you how.

  • Sorry if I ask, but I did the same thing and my PNG turned into a black block... What can I do?

  • @sonumasamune umm must be the way you saved off the PNG file. Also try flipping Ken Burns on and off

  • Can you re-size the logo??

  • @tcleland104 you would resize it in the image editor not iMovie. Final Cut can of course.

  • your tuts are great. but i found none regarding slow motion. i can only shoot my footage at 30 fps so imovie cant really make a smooth slow motion out of it. is there other way to get a smooth slow motion?

  • @bpprom If you can shot progressive but I have never found my slo mo to look that bad.

  • @iMovieFAQ @sonumasamune I also experienced that. I m sure i saved the png correctly. Yet the black area seems to show up when we use the fit options, in the editing mode.

  • @iMovieFAQ @tcleland104 I tried resizing the logo with Photoshop. But the picture in picture area seem to magnify my logo to fit its green area.. though i selected the options.

  • Is it possible to insert a logo in ai. and still retain transparency? I don't have photoshop.

  • Thaaaaaank you so much

  • This was great thanks! I put a logo one on each corner but I think imovie has a limit to how long the logo is.

  • @sonumasamune I have the same problem ? a solution ?

  • @ghanygirl0120 You could use FREE software like GIMP

  • is there any way to do this without photoshop???

  • Thanks to @sonumasamune. Using "crop" instead of fit solved my solution. If you have problems with cropping try to save your PNG as "interlaced" with photoshop or any similar software.

    Does someone know how to put the picture on top of the title? The picture is always behind the title and it seems like it can not be changed

  • Anyone know why my iMovie isn't showing the inserted iPhoto stills? (iMovie 11 & Snow Leapord)
