Not sure why, but iMovie is not working for me... I've been trying to upload to YouTube for a week now and the app keeps crashing. My file is too large to do a direct upload to YouTube without compressing and I haven't figured out how to do that and keep it unzipped. At this point, the only way I have found to get the video up it using Picasa from Google. You can watch following this link:
DenKnits 3.11 If I can ever get iMovie to stop crashing I'll get this up to YouTube then. Hopefully I can figure something better out by next recording!
