Your 2017 Macbook Air will be fine,and since it comes with iMovie, you're all set. I would strongly suggest getting an external drive to put your video files on, use that for editing. Video files consume a lot of space, and you will fill up that 1TB Air SSD quickly. It's also a pain to transfer projects from one drive to another, you may miss something and then if you need to re-edit, you can find there are glitches of iMovie/Final Cut not being able to find files that it needs.
