Where are source video clips stored?

With the update to iMovie 10 the iMovie Events folder is no long home to the source video clips. I'm wondering where they're now located in the event that I'd like to edit them outside of iMovie.

They are in the iMovie Library file in your Movies folder:


user>Movies>iMovie Library


If you right-click on the iMovie Library icon and choose Show Package Contents you'll find your original media as well as other files that iMovie creates for your projects.


Just be careful to not alter any of the contents of the Library file or you risk really messing up iMovie.
