Professional Video Editing for Beginners: Certification Course ( 1-On-1)

DaVinci Resolve is the industry-standard for video editing, color grading, and digital art. Used by professional studios, this DaVinci Resolve tutorial will introduce you to all the features of this powerful (and free) software. No previous background in video editing is required.  

This is an in-depth, immersive 5-month course designed to teach you the complete fundamentals of video editing, with a focus on its applications in film & video production and even entrepreneurship. You will also have the option to get certified from DaVinci Resolve at the end of the course!  



It is strongly encouraged that you have TWO monitors, this way as I teach the course you can follow along with me on one monitor and repeat the same actions on the other.



The course is split up into 5, one-month sections - Video editing 101 -105. They are designed to be taken in order, you must have completed the previous course to advance to the next one.
