iMovie make MacBook pro really hot!

Hi everyone,

My mac is 2012 15 inch MacBook pro with 4gb ram 512mb 650m nividia gpu and 2.3 i7 quad core,

But it becomes really hot when using iMovie(only this app is opened), my room is quite "airly", my hard drive even does not use over 10%!When I still using mountain lion and iMovie 9.0.9 anything is fine only after maverick(apple advertised maverick is very energy efficient right?)

so how can it be so hot, and anyway can cool it down, does a cooling pad will do the job since MacBook pro does not has hole below the cover?

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), OS X Mavericks (10.9.3)
