Here's how you can be different, and make films with quality.
The most important skills for you to have, in order of importance:
Episode 1: Using Copy-right free images, videos, and music - the easy solution is CREATIVE COMMONS SEARCH.
(YouTube, Google Video, every other site deletes movies and podcasts that violate copyright.)
Episode 2: Still Photo Skills with the Ken Burns Effect:

3. (Coming Soon) For soundtracks and music: Exporting loop files from GarageBand (iMovie's GB audio library is too small!) - or better still, CREATING YOUR OWN SOUNDTRACKS on GarageBand. It's easy to learn.
