[P1] Movies from Stills

[Chris Weinkauf]

The latest version of iMovie (3) also has the ability to grab images 
directly from the iPhoto library. Import any pictures you want into 
iPhoto, open iMovie and click on the "photos" button.   From here, you 
can adjust how long the photo will stay up and, optionally, use the Ken 
Burns effect to make pictures move, zoom in and zoom out, just like the 
old photos in those awful documentaries they made us watch in high 
school.

Cheers ^_^
