Video Editing Basics

This course is designed to introduce you to the basics of video filming and editing. You'll learn the essential skills needed to plan and execute simple video shoots and be introduced to editing software and techniques that will allow you to produce simple video presentations or short films. We'll look at selecting the most suitable equipment for your filming and how to get the best results in a range of conditions. We will also work through basic features of editing software, such as the timeline, transitions, and adding text, graphics and audio to your footage. This workshop is aimed at beginners and doesn't require any prior experience.

Training workshops are for University of Exeter staff and postgraduates, but interested undergraduate students are very welcome to email [email protected] and any spare places will be allocated to you nearer the time.
