Learn how to make your videos look professional with Adobe Premiere Pro

From 12.39 $ /h

Video editing is a essential and often overlooked skill nowadays. More and more people need video for their business, carreers, hobbies or other personal projects, and the easier way to make a video go from amateur looking to professional looking is to improve the quality of the editing. Besides that, things like a good workflow, asset organization and other good practices when editing will speed up the edit and make the process as a whole more efficient.

In my classes, I believe in understanding the student's needs for video editing and thus curating the content I teach to fit those needs.

Find your own way of expressing yourself. What motivates me is collaboration: I enjoy mentoring ideas and projects. More than a teacher, I see myself as a bridge between creative processes with a global perspective. After living and teaching in New York, Mexico City, England, and Jordan, I've developed a methodology that integrates intercultural sensitivity with filmmaking techniques, digital art, and creative writing. I also enjoy teaching English and Spanish.

This course is for people who really want to learn how to edit videos and understand how to tell a story with their images.

We will be working directly in DaVinci Resolve, a professional software used in film, advertising, and YouTube. The goal is not just to learn the buttons, but to know what to do with your footage: choosing the right shots, creating rhythm, and making a video that is both visually appealing and professional.

Depending on your objective (YouTube, short films, music videos, social media, corporate videos), I will guide you step by step:
– file organization
– basics of editing (cuts, transitions, rhythm)
– clean transitions (without kitschy effects)
– audio and music editing
– titration
– Introduction to color calibration
– Export optimized for YouTube / Instagram / TikTok

We can work with your own footage so that you leave with a finished video at the end of the sessions.
