Video Editing & Visual Storytelling

Shape footage into compelling stories with rhythm, sound, colour and purposeful editing.

Develop video editing and visual storytelling skills through a short brand film and a social-format cutdown. Learn to organise footage, shape pacing, balance sound and refine colour.
