How to import multiple videos to project at once?

Bonjour, first off, I love the iMovie iOS app, however, I feel it's missing a key feature. Is there a way for me to add multiple videos into a project at once without having to select them individually, and have the screen close, then having to re open it, and search for the other, and so on and so forth.

It would be so much easier if I could just select multiple videos from the import feature on my phone. The videos take a while as it is to load in the feature, my project is being created from oldest to newest, so I have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the list, wait for all the videos to load so I can, and then an only select one so I must repeat the process.

Any way around this yet?

MacBook Pro, iOS 6.0.2

Import all your videos into iPhoto's library.

Step 1: Plug your phone into your computer

Step 2: open iPhoto (or if you have an iPhone it should open automatically)

Step 3: click on you phone under "Devices"

Step 4: hold down the "Command" key while selecting ALL the videos you want to import

Step 5: Under "Event Name" give all your videos a general title (ie. Vacation)

Step 5: Import

Step 6: Open iMovie and look for the event name under Event Library

Hope this helps!
