Intermediate Editing

8 Sessions Feb 18 – April 1, 2025 What techniques make a good cut? Why do editors make choices to cut? We’ll get into storytelling technique, putting yourself in the position of the audience, making time for peer critique, and generally making your work fit into the larger body of video productions based on what style you’d like to emulate. We’ll get into some of the editor/ director/ writer relationships and how they feed into each other – and why, even when you are doing every one of those jobs yourself, each part should be planned and treated as a distinct job, each with unique priorities and philosophies. We will work in Adobe Premiere Pro, however this class is less of a “learning the toolbox”, and more “learning the craft,” so your skills will be applicable no matter the software you use in the future. Some prior experience is recommended (not required). Tuesdays, 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm For Adults (16+) 4 – 8 participants $200 tuition fee (assistance or waiver on request)
