To get started, open up your iMovie project and click on the 'Add Media' button. This will open a window where you can browse through your computer's files and select the music and media files you want to add to your project. You can either import one file at a time by clicking 'Import Selected' or multiple files by clicking 'Import All'.

If you have downloaded your free background music from YouTube or another site, such as Thematic, you can also add it to your iMovie project.

Alternatively, you can load songs directly into iMovie from your iTunes library by selecting 'Audio' from the navigation bar. You can also drag your music files directly into the iMovie Media tab window from your Finder window.

Once you have selected your music file, click either 'Import Selected' or 'Import All', depending on how many files you have selected. Then, click 'Add Media' in the Project Media area and select whether you want to create a new project or add to an existing one.
