In DaVinci Resolve, we move over to video editing. There you'll edit raw footage into quality clips and videos, add in special effects, transitions, and titles. Resolve is very powerful though so towards the end we will also cover advanced topics like changing color selectively in your scenes, creating custom animations through keyframing, and blurring faces out with tracking. The best part about these two apps is that they are free out of the box so learning these apps will save beginners a lot of money without a reduction in quality (though resolve does have extra purchasable, all core functionality is there in the free version). ---- Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) for Recording / Streaming --- Looking to start recording and streaming your own videos for internet sites like YouTube and Twitch but don't know how to get started?

The Fairlight tab allows you to manipulate and improve your audio with VST plugins and record new voice overs inside the program. When all is said and done, you finish up your project by exporting inside of the deliver tab. Of course, we aim to cover all of these extensively enough that you can produce projects ready for sharing online. Let's get to it!

If great footage + average editing = average result, and average footage + great editing = great result, what does great footage plus great editing equal? Do you want to understand the rules broadcast professionals use when editing a TV show? Do you want to improve the quality of your videos, to the point where your audience can't get enough? Are you moving from still photography to video, and is editing a major challenge? Are your videos just not getting noticed and shared on your YouTube channel? You are a professional video editor, but are not getting noticed because your work is technically fine, but not creatively outstanding? Then you have come to the right place. Operators and editors. In the pro broadcast world, there two types of editors: Operators and editors. An operator is someone who should be an expert at the software, understands codecs, as well as the export parameters needed for broadcast. Very often, these people are not particularly creative, because creativity is not their main focus. Often, it's the technical side of video that excites them the most. Before you do this course, I have a question: Do you mainly want to be taught all the technical stuff regarding video production? (called an operator-editor) Or. . . Do you want to become a creatively intuitive, clever video editor, that can create amazing content from your, or other people's footage? (called an editor) If yes, then this course is for you. If you answered 1, then this is not a course for you. I don't teach the tech stuff at all. Because, honestly, I am no expert myself. I have worked in broadcast TV as an editor for 37 years, won awards in New York and Cannes, and yet I still only have a basic understanding of the tech stuff. Because, believe it or not, I don't need it. And neither do you! I am an editor. I am not an operator. Editing video (understanding the software) is a straightforward, if complex subject. It is taught all over the Internet. But find me a truly creative video editing course. I can't find a good one anywhere. So I created this one. Editing video is easy to do, but difficult to do well. The trouble is, most video courses on the net are presented by filmmakers making wedding videos and low budget music videos. Very few are broadcast professionals.

Oh, so important! Music montage editing— easy to do, but difficult to do well, How to edit dialogue, How and when to use transitions, How to maximise the power of sound effects, Some stuff about YouTube. Editing software and what's good, and what's less good. All these skills will make your editing experience easy and intensely creative. You can become a great filmmaker. You will need: A broadband Internet connection, A laptop or desktop computer. Editing software able to edit multi-layered audio tracks. Manipulating multi-layered audio is fundamental to good editing. Any edit software with multi-layer capability, able to handle your source footage, will do. A basic understanding of video editing. As this is not a software course, you will need an understanding of your software, how to ingest media from your camera card, and how to set up a time-line to begin editing. An ongoing project would be an advantage so you can practice some of the techniques shown right away, A sprit of learning something new and intensely creative, Be prepared to have some fun.

We focus on teaching techniques to tell a great story—whether it's a full-length documentary, a wedding, or a 30-second commercial, it's all about story-telling. You need to know the basics of your chosen editing software already. This is very important: Although what we teach is performed using computer software, this is NOT a software course. Instead of, how to use the software , this is, what to do with the software . It does not matter what software you have chosen for your editing setup. As long as you know the basics, everything will be easy to follow and understand.
