iMovie glitch on iPad mini. My videos are freezing and then disappearing.

I have used iMovie for a long time now and it's always been reliable. Tonight I was editing a video on my iPad and all of my footage went black. Thankfully, when I closed the app and relaunched everything was still there. However though, as soon as I press play my video freezes and then goes black on the preview part [i can still see my footage on the editing bar though.] I have tried restarting my device but the glitch continues. I really want to fix this without losing my footage. Can someone help? And do you think if I just left imovie alone during the night it will have fixed itself by morning?


Also, if it helps, I have iOS 7, an iPad mini, and the iOS update of imovie.

iMovie (iOS), iOS 7.0.1

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
