AUTUMN OFFER - Adobe Premiere Pro - Editing - Introduction - ONLINE COURSE

This is a two-day ONLINE course.  

This allows for practice / exercises between the training days. 

This is a comprehensive ONLINE introduction to the latest incarnation of Adobe's acclaimed editing platform, Premiere Pro CC, this course will not only teach you how to get the best out of the software, but also develop your ability to craft a story - whether you are editing for broadcast or the web, film or corporate.  

The course is structured so that each delegate is taken step-by-step through the editing software, from the basic set-up,  workflow and project management to progressively more sophisticated tools and techniques - including shortcuts, basic effects and compression methods - working on projects as they go so that they are implementing immediately what  they are taught. 

Producers, directors, APs, researchers and others looking to learn the Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 interface including shortcuts and better workflow management in order to edit rough cuts or taster tapes. The course is also beneficial for those looking to improve their directing skills by acquiring a better understanding of how sequences are put together. This course is particularly aimed at those multi-skilling film-makers looking to develop their versatility, creativity and employability. 

None. Some participants may have extensive experience of sitting in on edits, while others may have taught themselves (or been taught) rudimentary Premiere Pro (or another edit software), while yet others may be complete novices. Our small class sizes means we can cater for a breadth of experience and backgrounds while ensuring each person gets plenty of one-on-one input from the tutor.
