Adobe Premiere

Premiere is a widely used, user-friendly digital video editing package. This 2 day introductory course will demonstrate all of the primary functions of Premiere. It is intensive and delegates are encouraged to be creative. On completing the course delegates will be able to develop their skills from a solid foundation of basic knowledge. The training sessions will be project-based working from digitising audio-visual material, to editing, and outputting material for inclusion within multimedia. You will develop an understanding of both digital and analogue video editing, which can then be used to progress to higher end audio-visual editing packages.
