So far so good.

I appreciate this short introductory course. It's very helpful and Drew highlights those areas that he focuses on in more advanced courses. Thank you, sir. James Creighton

I love how this instructor provides the "lay of the land". Being able to get around and knowing where and what all the nooks and crannies are far is important to me to help me feel like I'm not spinning my wheels or missing out on a better way. I just completed "Managing Assets in FCPX" and I find all the instruction I've seen so far as quite excellent! Thank you!
Update: I just completed the course and enjoyed it all the way through. I definitely feel more comfortable in Final Cut Pro X! Before getting this course I watched a YouTube video or two, and started a text book. The textbook has plenty of good info, but everything felt helter-skelter as a first route for learning. There was some good info in the YouTube videos, but nothing felt tied together. This course tied things together very nicely. If your time is important, it is definitely worthwhile to watch this short course. I feel so much more comfortable and ready to not just use FCPX, but to enjoy using it! This instructor did an excellent job providing a Basic FCPX checkout! Thanks again!

Nice One. I would love to get a basic idea about colour grading even if it was a very short one. That part was badly missing.

Great!
