In this beginning editing course, professional video editor and educational technology guru Phil Ebiner takes you through the basic skills using Final Cut Pro. If you are using another editing software, this course will still be beneficial as the content is universal. Here is what you'll be covering:

  • Story and Editing
  • Final Cut Basics
  • Importing
  • Video Editing Basics
  • Sound
  • Color Correction
  • Titles
  • Special Effects
  • Transitions
  • Green Screen
  • Exporting
  • Landing a Job
  • and more!

Even if you aren't using Final Cut Pro, you should take this course to learn the basics of editing. Phil Ebiner teaches everything you need to know to create a great video for your business, documentary, music video, feature length film, short narrative, etc.

Learn from someone who is currently working in the industry, who knows the most current editing techniques, and who has a Bachelor of Arts in Film and Television Production from one of the country's top film schools.

I look forward to teaching you! Let me know if you have any questions.

Instructor Details

Phil Ebiner

I’m Phil Ebiner, an educator, photographer, filmmaker, and founder of Video School and Photography & Friends. Through my online courses and creative community, I’ve helped millions of students around the world learn practical skills in photography, video production, design, and more. My goal is to make creative skills feel accessible, useful, and encouraging, whether you’re picking up a camera for the first time or looking to take your work to the next level.

My teaching style is clear, supportive, and hands-on. I break complex topics into simple steps, explain the “why” behind each technique, and share real-world examples you can immediately apply. As a photographer and filmmaker, I believe great creative work is not just about gear or settings, but about storytelling, intention, observation, and connection. My goal is to help you feel confident, inspired, and capable of bringing your own creative ideas to life.

I am a beginner and taking this course because Phil is great teacher. This is my 6th course with him. I have a great result in Premier Pro after course with Phil. All information given with good explanation. Strongly recommend! Iryna.

I am a visual artist and a VJ. I am also a junior filmmaker. This editing course is just what I was looking for. I am very excited already :)

By Everett Larreynaga on 4/27/2019

To this point, i will have to review the entire course. Seems as if I do not know anything about editing. Must retake the course from a to z.

By Golamrabbi Azad on 7/30/2018

This course would help if I'm using FCP7 but now I'm using FCP10. Of course, In this course, instructor so informative & nicely completed this course. So, my point is if the instructor updates this course into FCP10 or wish to get an amazing course from only Phil because already completed his Premiere Pro course. Very well explained & Direct to the point. ^_^

By Luke Purdy on 12/25/2017

I like that he starts with the foundation. It's important to be reminded of the importance of editing to the whole story-telling process.

By Lyndon Villone on 8/28/2017

Weak, broad, general information with no intro to final cut pro software

By Reem Yousif Eldaw on 4/9/2017

This course is amazing, I've learned so much You're a very good teacher. I really have nothing to say Just keep on doing more courses, You're doing a great job :)

By Mario Kull on 2/12/2017

Because it's getting me exited and i want to move forward and learn all the steps and become good video editor in future

By Bronwen Gagne on 4/14/2016

It's still early, but I'm looking forward to learning more.

By Nyvrem Zurc on 9/26/2012

Well, what can I say? it's just thanks really specially for making this a free one. Although I admit I have slight idea about editing, I still learned a lot in this course. I just find the "story telling" part lacking, and I do hope you expand on that on your next course (maybe add it here or when you do that Premiere Pro in which I will be looking forward to because that's the one I'm currently using :D.) because frankly, that's where my confidence is lacking really. maybe something like this? http://www.routledge.com/cw/butler-9780415883283/s1/video/ But all in all, I really learned a lot here. thank you very much. have a good day.
