Edit Live Photos on Mac
Live Photos capture a brief moment of movement along with a still image, making them more dynamic than standard photos. In Filmora for Mac, you can import Live Photos from your iPhone or Photos Library and work with their video content directly on the timeline.
This guide explains how to import Live Photos into Filmora, edit them with music, text, effects, filters, and other creative elements, and export the finished result in your preferred video format. Follow the steps below to complete the entire workflow from import to final export.
Step 1: Import Live Photos
Method 1: Use the Data Cable
Connect a data cable between the iPhone device and your Mac computer, and import the cinematic video through "Import from Camera or a Phone" in the drop-down.
Choose the phone device and Live Photo, scroll down your photo album and choose the live photo, click Import.
After importing, the live photo will be added to the project media area. Filmora will convert the imported live photo into one photo and one video. You can now add the video to the timeline.
Method 2: Use Photos Library
Click on the Photos library and select Live Photos. Filmora will synchronize your live photos from the local album to the Photos Library.
Click on Live Photos to preview the live photo in the preview window.
Step 2: Edit the Live Photos
Drag the live photos to the timeline, you will get a video directly. Now, you can continue editing the video by adding the music/effects/texts/filters as you want or choose to export live photo.
Step 3: Export Live Photos
When you finish editing, click Export in the top right corner. You can change the export format or upload directly to a social media platform.
