iMovie help

I am trying to edit video clips in iMovie and then save it to my computer(MAC). However, when I try to export the clip as a file its no where to be found on my computer other than in iMovie as a saved project. Where is my file being sent to if I can't find it in my Photos app? Even when I use the Finder app on my MAC its not showing anywhere.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

video clip filenames not appearing in iMovie I've made many movies in iMovie. Today I go to put another movie together and while I am browsing the video clips via My Media in my Photos library, iMovie is not showing me the filename of the clip as I hover over it like it usually does. I always go through my clips in Photos, jot down the filenames and then put them together in iMovie. I can't do that very easily now without seeing the filename of each clip. How do I get them back??

iMovie - unable to access entire Photos library Greetings, I'm trying to import media clips from my Photos library into an iMovie project that I'm working on. For some reason, when I try to do it from within iMovie, I can't seem to access all of my content. Some of it seems to be there, but not all. What do I do to resolve that? Thanks

Importing photos into iMovie When I import photos (dragging) photos from the Photos app into iMovie it looks like it reverts to the original photo. So all color corrections, cropping etc is lost. The photos (thumbnails) in iMovie from the Photos library contains the changed versions, but when I drag the photo to the timeline it reverts to the original version. Very annoying. Is there a setting that I have missed? Photos 8.0, iMovie 10.3.5, Macos 13.1

When you share out (export) the project as a Movie file, you have the option to select the destination of the Movie, e.g, your desktop.
