Right off the bat you are explaining things in windows that you have not shown us how to open so we can organize our screen like yours. I hope this is explained in future tutorials.

By Stan Jesionowski

Great job guys.

By Andy B. McKenzie

Not enough indept information. Josh dont know the key terms, his father is better.

By Kunal Roy

Very basic and totally amateurish.

By Paul Wallin

Good coverage but not best quality examples.

By Russell Chapa

Its very easy to follow. I love the collaboration between the them.

By Wallace Jefferson

If you have final cut pro X you should know all these basic skills, waste of time

By Nicola Archer

Great Course! Very easy to understand and apply. Very helpful to learn about how to use all the amazing features Final Cut Pro offers you in order to create great professionally looking videos.

By Ralph Lubich

course seems to be just put together with our review. No real editing.

Very basic very repetitive.

By Terry Quinalty

A bit amateurish. Better development of the course outline, the detailed presentation strategies, and the scripted dialogs would go far to provide a clearer understanding of the course subject and material.

By Cesar Caminero

too confusing , hard to understand, not clear about what they were clicking, i didnt like delivery and both talking about different things, spent too much time on basic and very few advance tricks.

By Robert Stephen

The explainations are not very clear when the son is trying to point out a feature. Would have been much better without the son. Glad i did not pay full price. I would have been very disapointed.
