How do you remove the video from a clip, insert a photo in that area but keep the audio track?

(Using MacOS Big Sur 11.1) In IMovie how do you remove the video from a clip, insert a photo in that area, but keep the audio track?

Hi, valtaro,


Put your cursor on the audio clip and, while pressing down, pull the clip straight down until you pull off the coupler that attaches it to the video clip above. The audio will then be nested in one of the lower audio wells and will be independent of the video clip. You can now remove the video clip and still keep the audio track.
