About This Course

Who this course is for:

  • New video editors who want to learn Adobe Premiere Pro and make their own films

What you’ll learn: 

  • Turn your ideas into films that the world can watch
  • Navigate Premiere Pro and organize assets for easy editing
  • Color correct and color grade to transform any footage
  • Sync and edit audio using built-in tools to captivate your audience
  • Add and manipulate video and audio transitions
  • Edit an entire video from beginning to end, using professional and efficient techniques

Requirements: 

  • This Premiere Pro video editing course is meant for beginners who want to learn how to edit. No prior experience is necessary.

Start editing your video professionally with Adobe Premiere Pro!

This basic-level course is designed to take you through the very first steps of learning video editing – from planning to exporting your final product. Learn how to manage small projects like filming on your phone – or large projects with multiple camera angles and syncing the audio between your cameras and audio recording device.

You’ll start by looking at how to navigate the software you’re editing in and find the windows that are the top priority for creating our films. Once you learn how to organize clips and assets, you’ll dive into placing and clipping pieces of your film to create a linear storyline that keeps your audience captivated.

Learn how to color correct for perfect and natural footage and how to color grade for a cinematic look!

We’ll also be talking about how to do your job in the editing room easier by planning and filming with your edit in mind. Finally, come along with me as I edit a small video from beginning to end and explain the process I personally use.

If you don’t have Adobe Premiere Pro, you can learn these steps and concepts in any video editing software you’re using or download a free trial of Premiere on Adobe’s website.
