Using iMovie for newscasts

The iMovie app is a powerful app for making newscasts. However, today I'm going to talk about the challenges I had. 

One is the touch sensitivity nature of it. Often when I want to trim the video clip, it will simply pick up the clip as if I want to move it to a new location. It takes repeated attempts and deftness to get the app to trim on the first try. Having used more powerful video editing software on PCs, I can see why professionals would not use the iPad for serious video editing. For students or enthusiasts who want to create something quite professional-looking quite quickly, it can be a useful tool. However, for more features and detailed control with a mouse, a computer-based program is still superior. 

Despite that one major issue, iMovie was good at splitting video clips, adding titles (but typing slowly), adding music and sound effects and transitions.
