Hi,


Are you using iPad iMovie or Mac iMovie?


Freezing can be caused by a number of things, such as a conflict on the computer, insufficient free space, corruption in the project, etc. Here are a few things to try:


Restart your Mac or iPad.


Open another project and see if you can export from there.


Make sure that you have sufficient free space for iMovie to operate.


Scroll though the project and see if you see any signs of corruption, such as black frames, white flashes, or artifacts. Cut out any that you find.
