        Learning any new software can be difficult, especially something as complicated as video editing. This course will introduce you to FCP and help you feel comfortable with the interface.

  • You will learn how to import audio, video and pictures.

  • You will learn all about the process of editing these assets into a single cohesive story.

  • You will learn all you need to know about exporting your hard work as a final polished video.

      If you've outgrown the abilities of iMovie or Windows Movie Maker, it's time to step up and join the big leagues! FCP is a full-featured industry-standard professional-level video editor. And what's more... You can easily learn it in an hour!

This course includes easy to follow tutorial videos for learning the interface and basic functions of FCP, a printable tip sheet, and more!

You can learn everything you need to know about FCP Basics in about an hour.

        The course is broken into four simple parts;

  • Getting to Know Final Cut Pro ,

  • Getting Your Raw Content In,

  • Cutting It Up, and

  • Getting It Out.

I what is a good learning experience. it could have been better i they had told 2-3 cases to explain things.

By JJ J on 5/17/2021

not very explanatory as far as what an event vs collection even is- Someone not knowing what any of this is doesn't know. We also don't have clips already arranged- perhaps dumbing it down to the BASIC structure first before skimming over - like what does a collection mean I have no idea how things are organized- I have a folder on the left that is empty for instance. why is it there? how do I get rid of it? how do I revert to the default empty open project? Can you have video test clips available to download for beginners who don't have video already recorded? too "off and running" for the beginner

By Cass Krughoff on 10/22/2020

Yes the course started with the very basics, which is what I was looking for.

Sweet!

By Philip Greenaway on 10/16/2020

So far so good.

By James Creighton on 10/9/2020

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.

By Christian Jonathan on 10/1/2020
