iMOVIE not showing my videos

I just bought a MAC pro and I can't see my videos from my photos to use in iMOVIE. I tried to check all preferences and everything looks right. Any ideas? Thanks

To have the videos show, the Photos app general preferences must have the Photos app library selected as the system photo library.


Also, if the videos are stored in the cloud, you would first need to download them to the Photos library to have them be read by iMovie.
