Introduction to Video Editing

1.1 Introduction
Capturing high-quality video has never been easier, but capturing video is only part of the story-telling process. And it doesn't even have to be storytelling. It could be sharing an experience, presenting information, or covering news. To get video from its raw form to a finished, watchable product, it needs to be edited. And this is a major hurdle, because a lot of folks think that video editing is complicated and hard to learn. But it doesn't have to be. Hi, my name is Dave Bode for Envato. And in this course, you will learn the basics of video editing. You will learn how to import and organize your footage and assets. How to trim clips and add them to the timeline. How to audio. You will learn about color correction and grading, video effects, transitions, and more. And you will be learning all of this while you are working on footage that's provided with this course. That way you can follow along and get real hands on experience. At the end of this course, you will have the skills to start editing your own projects so that you can get started telling stories of your very own. To get started, check out the next lesson, where you will find out what you need to follow along.
