How do I store video clips on an external hard drive, using iMovie 10.0?

I am running out of storage space on my MacBook Air. I need to store my video clips on an external hard drive. But I see no way in the new iMovie to do this. Any ideas, please?

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

iMovie stores your Events and Projects into a Library, and that's usually located in your home folder under Movies:


User uploaded file This library can be picked up and moved to your external drive. Then in iMovie just open it by going to File Menu->Open Library->Other

User uploaded fileAfter that iMovie will remember which Library to open the next time you need to launch the program.
