imoviepluginsvideo editing
I'm attempting to remove some video noise/grain in iMovie 11 taken in low-light but haven't found a way to do this within iMovie itself. I've looked for plugins but the only ones I've found don't have free trials and I don't trust paying for software if I can't be assured it will work.
Is there a way to remove video noise/grain in iMovie?
This type of alignment/syncing is why the clapboard was invented! Without one, you'll have to be a little more meticulous when you manually align the clips.

Unfortunately iMovie doesn't take plugins.
Best bet is external software OR Final Cut Pro 7 has numerous plugins that reduce noise and grain, but they are all very expensive.
