Weblog:   iPhoto Takes a Backseat to Music Again

I would love to hear more about how you plan on using GarageBand for scoring your iMovies. Are you talking about actually creating new music, or organizing existing iTunes tracks?


I have over 220 soundtrack/scores on my iPod. As I listen I write down which ones would be good background music. Later, I then add them to a custom playlist such as "iMovie", or "Slide Show".


Later, in iMovie, I experience a great "Mac moment" (when I select the sound editing panel, and the playlists I created in iTunes magically appears -- ready to be inserted to my soundtrack).

    Yeah, you're definitely on the right track, so to speak. One of the new iPhoto features that I like is the ability to choose an entire iTunes playlist to accompany a slideshow. So you can build a custom playlist in iTunes, then tap it in iPhoto. Cool.

    With GarageBand, I want to take this a step further. I can easily create music that is copyright free so I can publish my slideshows anywhere without worry of copyright infringement. This is a big deal if you want to share your work with the entire world for fun or for profit.
