Earlier today, Apple hosted its "Peek Performance" special event where the company unveiled a new generation of the iPhone SE and iPad Air as well as two completely new products: the Mac Studio and Studio Display.
During the iPad Air segment of the keynote, the company revealed that it will be releasing a new version of iMovie in April and gave us a sneak peek of what is to come with the new version.
One of the things coming with the new version of iMovie is Magic Movie, a new feature that will, with little effort, intelligently assemble "styled, edited videos complete with titles, transitions, even music."
The other feature coming to iMovie is Storyboards which will offer users "premade video templates [to] guide you through the movie-making process."
