They do a great job going over the basics of how to do anything from the beginning of having FCP but it's nothing you can't find on youtube.

By James Griffin on 10/27/2020

This educational video is terrible, and the workflow of stopping instead of continuing the lesson is horrible!

By Angela McNeill on 10/25/2020

Not a good match for me...sad that I watched too much to return within the 30 day period....I hoped it would get better and that I could learn something....

By Anthony Pitucco on 8/23/2020

By Jade Moore on 8/5/2020

I really enjoyed the pace of the course as well as the two different teaching styles!

By Enrique Tordera on 8/2/2020

I just finished the course in 1 day, it does explain the program and some workflows, but does not deeg in super details about advanced options. Nevertheless, I consider the knoledge adquired after this course quite complete and a good knowledge of the program.
I would like to see more workflows and advanced techniques, but is my first time with the program and after the course I feel confident using it with this knowledge by now untill I will reserch more.
A very positive point the funny was that is explained and the easy to follow

By Anchal Agarwal on 7/27/2020

I learned a lot through this course. I was always afraid of working on FCP but this course made me quite confident.

By Stephen Luke on 7/26/2020

This course was made easier by the description and the repetitive instructions. It would have been better if we had some video and sound to use as we followed along other than that a great course thank you.
