transferring imovie to a usb for pc use

I am unable to transfer imovie project to a usb drive. I need to play it on either a pc or a television

I have saved it to an external drive using the imovie app (works perfectly) but can't get it on to a usb using quick time player. Is anyone able to help?

Share out your project as a File to the desktop. Drag the shared movie into a USB drive that is formatted ExFat. An ExFat formatted drive will play on a PC and a Mac, as well as a T V.


You can't transfer the iMovie project itself, but rather the shared out movie from the project.
