Cambridge TV is offering a one day workshop for technical video editing skills on Wednesday 8 August. The day will run from 9.30am to 5.30pm.
It will cover the different software available, with the pros and cons for each and start building your skills in either Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere Pro. The team's goal is to enable you to be comfortable in editing projects by yourself and pushing the boundaries for more advanced editors too.
