Good course for beginners. I was expecting to learn some new stuff, or ways to make nice looking (travel) videos, but it's basically just the posibilites of PowerDirectors (nothing wrong with that).

By Dennis Wong on 5/17/2020

Very good tutorial for beginners

By Brian heiler on 4/21/2020

Very close, as a documentary maker I was hoping for more about the motion of static images.

By Malcolm E White on 4/12/2020

Great course for me. I am very weak in the production end and this course is giving me a great foundation to build on.

By Juan C Morrobel on 4/4/2020

The instructions are very clear

By Ken Altfather on 3/19/2020

Good introduction to Power Director. The nstructor did a nice job of covering the basics in easy to follow steps. The course is a bit dated now that Power Director 18 is out, but I'm expecting a lot will carry over to the latest version.

By Mike Peters on 3/11/2020

Great course. Phil does a great job of explaining the concepts for editing videos with this software. Took me from novice to being very comfortable with editing my videos. Got me up to speed very quickly.

By Daniel Rigling on 1/22/2020

Lots of great information without getting so far into the weeds that it was incomprehensible! Excellent overview that applies to multiple versions of PowerDirector.

By Tim kushmaro on 1/16/2020

Poor / Average. Could be better.
1. The course starts to teach on advanced subjects (like 360 degrees Video Editing) without explanation first the basics.
2. Lesson 21 (Quick Tips for better Video) Very poor and too little.
3. Too little examples how to use titles, like moving title, title with background (like on the news or in the course itself).
4. Not enough attention and examples for how working with DirectZone.
5. How to create lines, arrows or other objects, for example in order to point out something in the clip.
6. How to copy edited material from one timeline in PowerDirector to be uses in other timeline in other work file?
7. What about markers to place on the timeline to jump immediately to the spot marked.
8. I could not find anywhere in the course how to contact for assistance.
The instructor just says to post, ask questions, feedbacks but never provide his contact details.
9. Must say, great, clear and pleasant voice and explanation.

By Mark Rose on 1/5/2020

360 is very illrevelant to a new student..

By Fred Rijckenberg on 1/4/2020

Prima cursus maar een update naar latere versie zou mooi zijn

By Larry Arrnold on 11/14/2019

The constant and fast cursor movement was not necessary - a more deliberate movement is all you need if the explanation is clear.
