Hey all!

I'm pretty new to this, and would appreciate any and all suggestions.

I'm going on vacation in a few weeks. With my iPhone, I will be taking hundreds of Live Photos. My goal is to download the video of each Live Photo and turn it into a movie with iMovie.

With each Live Photo video being between 3-4 seconds and there being so many videos, what is the best way to transition from one video to the next instead of there being no transition where it just goes from one shot to the next. Furthermore, adding in the basic cross dissolve or ripple effect between every single frame change is going to get very boring very quickly. I'm trying to get creative, and willing to take the time to learn what it takes, but my knowledge at the moment is very limited in terms of "special effects" but I'm fairly familiar with iMovie.

Thank you!
