iMovies help

I took some video clips with my iPhone. I emailed them to my MacBook. I uploaded them to iMovies. The clips appear upright, but the video plays it sideways. Is there any way to flip the video right side up?

Thanks.

Try selecting the clips again. This time after selecting the clip, go to Crop, Rotate and Ken Burns. At the video box ( right hand corner ), you will see two arrows sign. Click on them and rotate the video. See whether that helps. All the best
