Learn video editing skills - Final Cut Pro - online training

This course consists of three training webinars to learn how to use video editing software.

An editor can either make or break a project so learn how to do it to a professional standard from home.

The biggest obstacles in learning how to edit videos are:

  • navigating the software
  • file management (it can get very messy)
  • succinct storytelling
  • learning how to operate the advanced controls such as colour, audio and footage manipulation.

We cover all of these areas in this three part webinar alongside giving teaching you a clear workflow that will save you tons of time on your future edits. No prior experience is required since we start from the absolute basics. Even experienced editors have huge gaps in their knowledge and learn a lot from these workshops.

The webinar is very interactive. Our goal is to teach how to operate editing softwares efficiently with practice on your own work. You must have the editing software on your own computer to sign up (Final Cut Pro) . We will be demonstrating how to operate the software through live screen capture to walk you through the process as you are doing it yourselves. We can send professional footage to learn with if you don’t have your own projects.

If you require any other needs such as learning how to create vfx, title sequences, etc do let us know!
