Extracting audio in iMovie ‘08

Sep 30th, 2008

Image via WikipediaFor a long time, I labored under the impression that the ability to extract audio from a video clip was non-existent in iMovie ‘08. Turns out, that’s not the case. There’s a way to do it, but it’s less straightforward than in iMovie HD. Colleague Doug Lawhead turned me on to this relatively simple explanation of the process.

I still dislike the interface, but iMovie HD is buggy and not being upgraded. I’m using iMovie ‘08 in the beginning multimedia class for the first time. We’ll probably be moving to Final Cut Express for our classes in the future.
