Hi, you guys seem to be more on it than the apple forums so I'm hoping someone can give me some help here.
I'm trying to edit my daughter's soccer reel for college, so I've got all these games which are massive files, but I only need 10 seconds here and there to put together her reel. So here's my problem.
Sadly, my laptop has seen better days (Macbook Pro 2015, running 11.6.4), I love this computer, but the hard drive is jam-packed, which is why all the games are on an external drive.
What I would like to do is use the external drive as the source and to save the movies to, as in, every time I drag a game into iMovie it will save it on the external drive (I think that makes it the iMovie library for this project) and I'm editing as if the external drive is my internal drive. I do have movies in the iMovie library that are on my hard drive and I'd like to keep those there for now.
If that is possible (and I hope I'm explaining what I want to do properly) please post step-by-step instructions on how to set that up, and assume you are talking to an idiot...which according to my wife I am.
Thanks!
