Description
This course is designed for those students who are interested in learning how to use a non-linear editing (NLE) system who are keen to learn how to edit drama. Techniques used are similar to those used by professional television editors, based on my own experiences of working on a range of projects over the past 30 years.
The editing technique is demonstrated using Adobe Premiere Pro, but if you are familiar with other NLE systems you should be able to transpose the actions across to your own editing platform.
Course Structure:

Who Should Attend!
- This course is designed to help students with limited understanding of editing to learn how to edit a drama scene the way a professional does. Each stage the student is guided through the process and provided with audio and video clips so you can join in. You are also encouraged to try out different approaches based on your own ideas, once you have mastered the techniques suggested.
- Though in the course Adobe Premiere is used for editing, you should be able to follow the demonstrations and edit the clips in the editing software you are familiar with.
