When working on a project save all the original image and audio files into a project folder labeled with your name to the desktop. Any files that are used in the iMovie project will need to be copied into the iMovie project file.

  1. Go to File > Consolidate Media
  2. Select Copy Clips

When you are done editing in iMovie backup your iMovie project file to the folder that contains the source files on the desktop.

  1. From the top menu > iMovie > Quit iMovie
  2. Click on the desktop, go to File > New Finder Window
  3. In the window navigate to Local Work > Users > find your folder > Movies > iMovie Projects
  4. Click and drag the entire iMovie Project folder (intact) to your project folder on the desktop
  5. Copy the project folder from the desktop to your cubby on Orca
