![]() If you already have iMovie or Screenflow, then this tutorial will help you learn how to do a split-screen effect. Even a beginner can learn this editing technique in iMovie with just a bit of training. There are professional editing applications such as Premier Pro and Final Cut Pro that can also be used for this, but these programs have a much steeper learning curve. By comparison, user-friendly editing applications such as iMovie will let you do some pretty sophisticated effects in your video but don’t require advanced editing skills. So I additionally show how to use the screen casting software, Screenflow, to edit imported video clips to create a split-screen effect. There are limitations with iMovie, however. In the following video tutorial, I’ll show you step-by-step how to create a split-screen effect using iMovie (Version 10.1.1). But today it’s fairly straightforward with movie-editing software. Before digital technology, split screen was somewhat challenging to accomplish-even for professional filmmakers. Split screen is a filmmaking technique that first was used in the movies to allow an actor to appear twice on screen….perhaps playing twins. Have you watched a movie or a video in which two different scenes were played side-by-side on the same screen and wondered, “How’d they do that?” Well, it’s actually easier than you might think, especially if you use movie-editing software for non-professionals such as iMovie.
