iMovie Theatre -- Moving to a New Location

Is there a way to move the location of iMovie Theater to a external drive? I set up a iMovie Library (using iMovie 10.0) on my external, but no iMovie Theater was set up on the external, and was only found on my local drive. Whenever I export a clip or finished project to iMovie Theater, the created file goes to the iMovie Theater on my local drive?

Anyone find a way to move the iMovie Theater location to the external drive?

Hi Alan and everyone else 🙂

I followed Alan's instructions and a "shortcut" was created on my Mac <Movies> folder.

But then, when I unplug my external hard drive and turn off WiFi, iMovie can still play the movies from the Theatre. All of them!

How can that be?

My iMovie is absolutely empty. No projects or movies or anything!

Any thoughts?
