We teach the underlying SHOOTING AND EDITING SKILLS [using modules from the National Curriculum] - and EDITING SKILLS that are transferable to any DV Editing software [PC or Apple]. On our courses, emphasis is on encouraging transference of
Basic Windows SKILL's in to a Digital Video environment.
Where videos are
      ASSEMBLED by DRAG and DROP
      EFFECTS are applied by DRAG and DROP
      Audio and titles again are added by DRAG and DROP
The main EDITING SKILL is DRAGGING the edges of clips to TRIM the IN and OUT points. We show not only How to Trim but also What to look for.
The ART comes with applying filters and setting the pace.
