iMovie is invisible to iTunes?

Using my iPhone 13 Pro, I created a movie via iMovie that is now sitting in my iPhone's Photos repository under "Recents".


But when I back up my iPhone to my Win10PC using iTunes for Windows, the movie never gets backed up - it seems to be invisible to iTunes. What am I missing?


iPhone 13 Pro

iOS 15.2.1

iTunes for Windows ver. 12.12.2.2

iPhone 13 Pro

When your device is backed up that doesn't automatically copy data to anywhere that you can make use of it on your computer. Any mechanism that imports new content from the device's camera roll won't have access to iMovie's output either. See Share or export your iMovie project - Apple Support. You probably want to export it to iCloud Drive.
