Digital Video Editing Course

Editing is the defining characteristic of filmmaking

Editing is the defining characteristic of filmmaking – it’s an art form that exists in no other medium. And it’s so much more than simply “cutting out the junk” the flubbed lines, the camera wobbles, and so on.

Editors are storytellers. They manipulate the images and sounds of a film in subtle yet important ways, affecting the story with every cut.

Final Cut Pro is a professional non-linear editing software application developed by Apple Inc.. Final Cut Pro master provides the tools to teach the concepts, theories and practices that have become the visual language of our current media form. Television stations, major corporations, commercials are among the business that hire Universal students.
