By Alan Craig Maples on 4/11/2024

Instruction was clear and easily understood. Sometimes, instructors just talk too fast to provide meaningful guidance. The instructor in this course was very good.

By Jay Evans on 12/6/2022

Really good to-the-point course for a beginner, this is exactly what i needed and wanted ! Thank you.

By Xiao Li on 2/8/2021

This course just scratches the surface of things you can do in final cut, please create a detailed course as well.

By Julian Cesar on 2/8/2021

The course is spot it, exactly what a crash course should cover, it gets you familiar with FCP in under 2 hours thats great!

By LaShawn Williams on 1/2/2021

He gave some good information. I think some of the information has enhanced my ability to navigate Final Cut Pro. I expected more from this course. He spent a lot of time on details that did not add to the value of my ability to use FCP and was not a good use of my time.

By Simon Jones on 12/15/2020

Hi there Its a good course but a bit more simple than I was expecting

By Jason Chan on 11/18/2020
