In this 4 week course, learners will acquire the skills to edit and share their own video projects using iMovie or Filmora9 on a laptop or desktop. Tablets and phones will not suffice for this class.
(If other editing software like Premiere Pro or Davinci is used, please contact me for my one-on-one tutorials.)
Each class is 75 minutes.
