Can I only use the Apple iLife applications?
MiLife is an all inclusive event, and it does not restrict you to using only Apple's iLife applications. You can use whatever you want to create your submissions, but MiLife only offers support and training for Apple iLife applications. They are so easy and fun to use, you really should use them, as the festival does stress using these applications.

Does it cost anything to register?
No! MiLife festival is free to take part in; the only restriction is that you be affiliated with UNC-CH.

Where do I submit my masterpiece?
Final works can be submitted as full quality ISO burns either on CD or DVD and dropped of in the Undergraduate Library's Media Resources Center. Submissions should be left with Winifred Fordham Metz in the Media Resources Center, in the basement of the Undergraduate Library.

Where can I learn to use the iLife applications so I can make my great project?
There are several avenues for learning the iLife application beyond simple trial and error. The Tar Heel Mac Users Group, the Undergrad Library's Media Resource Center Labs, and the local Apple Store all offer workshops, tutorials, and learning materials. See the MiLife 2005 Schedule for training session times.
