This non-linear edit course teaches students the skills needed to begin editing professional quality video using Final Cut Pro. Beginning by familiarizing each student with the basic user interface the course moves on to cover such topics as setup, adjusting and customizing preferences and settings, capturing video and audio, creating titles, and final output.
