The Complete Adobe Premiere Pro Video Editing Bootcamp (Udemy.com)
Learn Video Editing in Adobe Premiere Pro with Color Correction, Color Grading and Professional Video Editing practices
Created by: Louay Zambarakji
Last updated November 2025
Our take
Based on the ratings of 7,316 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in November 2025. No course pays to be reviewed.
This is a beginner to intermediate Premiere Pro course built around one big project. Louay Zambarakji provides more than 230 professionally shot interview and documentary clips, and the syllabus walks through the full post-production process on that footage: importing and organizing media, cutting a sequence, audio basics, titles and lower thirds, transitions, color correction with the Lumetri scopes, grading, and chromakeying. The stated goal is a one to five minute demo reel by the end. At 110 lectures and about 9.7 hours it is short for a bootcamp, which suits people who want to be editing real footage in the first hour rather than sitting through theory.
Reviewers mostly praise how clear the explanations are and how each lesson builds on the last. One says they made more progress with Premiere by section five than ever before, and another was glad the course covers Mac as well as Windows. The complaints are mild but real. One student halfway through says some parts feel outdated and the material could use reorganizing, even with a last update in late 2025. Another found the click and drag section challenging and did not have the same icons on screen that the lessons show. There are no quizzes or assignments, so the demo reel is the only structured practice.
With a 4.8 rating from over 7,300 reviews and around 81,000 students, the course is one of the more trusted Premiere options on Udemy, and the rating breakdown shows very few one or two star reviews. It is a good pick if you want a guided project rather than a feature tour, and the faster route to a finished piece. If you want color grading and speed changes taught as part of a real edit, start here.
Pros
- Learn on 230+ professionally shot documentary clips and finish with your own demo reel
- Reviewers say lessons build on each other clearly and the explanations are easy to follow
- Full color correction workflow with Lumetri scopes plus a grading section, rare in a beginner course
- Last updated November 2025, and one reviewer was glad it works on both Mac and Windows
Cons
- One student says parts feel outdated and the sections could use reorganizing
- No quizzes or assignments; the demo reel is the only structured practice
- Under ten hours, so motion graphics, effects and advanced audio get only a light touch
Great course! Very easy to understand and follow along. The content is engaging and progresses well through the stages.
Listed as all levels, but it really suits complete beginners and light Premiere users; experienced editors will skim most of it.

I've watched a few other video courses on the Black Majic Camera app and this is the best. Explains every detail in an understandable way. Each lesson builds on the previous one. I'm going back through it just to make sure I truly understand everything he's teaching.

By Kavery Subbayya on 2/7/2026
I love the instructor; his calm, reassuring tone makes the course feel far less intimidating. One helpful tip: since personal computer software is constantly being updated, I’ve found GPT incredibly useful for getting back on track and continuing to follow the course smoothly.

By Ranjeet Jaswal on 9/22/2025
I have no words to express my gratitude. I was never taught the way you taught in this course. The shortcuts you told in this video were amazing. Hoping to continue happy learning. Fully satisfied up until now.
By Amitoj Gautam on 12/24/2019
Discounting some pronunciation issues of the instructor, the course is extremely good and very useful. It's a gem. However, the frequent dip and rise in volume and the momentary blurry resolution when a video starts are too disturbing. 10/10 for the course and 0/10 for Udemy.
By Junia Maurancy on 6/15/2019
I cannot say enough well about the instructor. He is one of the best in this field. The course was very detailed and organized. I feel that I have a very good understanding of the Adobe Premiere Pro CC and plan to use what I have learned for years to come. It was truly one of my favorites. I want to thank Louay for another valuable course, he made it very enjoyable and I learned a lot. I would suggest that future students not hesitate in utilizing this course as a valuable resource.
By Rae Daniel on 10/23/2018
This is an excellent course for beginners. I had no previous editing experience when I purchased this course. I found the material to be straightforward and engaging. The instructor is timely in his responses to questions and gives genuine feedback to submitted work. I now have a good foundational knowledge of editing basics which I plan to expand on by taking additional courses and practicing regularly.
