This class is designed for existing Editors users looking to edit professional quality video with Final Cut Pro X and who prefer hands-on and interactive instruction to best explore its basic functionality.
Students should have the following prerequisite knowledge prior to attending the course:
- Proficient knowledge in Final Cut Pro 7
- Knowledge of OS X and basic computer navigation
Unfortunately, there is no Apple Certified Exam for this course. However, if you are interested in being Final Cut Pro X Certified, our Final Cut Pro X: The Professional Post Production Course is accompanied with the certification exam.
Firstly, we are long established as part of the post-production industry, and therefore have an excellent understanding of the market, and the skills that post-production staff need to have. We are not purely a training company, with other divisions of the group having a huge presence in the industry.
Secondly, unlike a lot of our competitors that provide training to the post-production industry, many of the courses we run are fully approved and certified, and will give you a recognised qualification if you pass the exam (more on this later).
We do not do general training – our courses are all industry specific, and we are experts in this field.
Thirdly, we're situated in the heart of London's post-production district – where better place to train on post-production technology?
Fourthly, the team here is friendly, helpful, efficient, understanding, flexible and approachable, and the trainers, as well as being all of the above, are fully qualified and certified, and all have significant industry experience and kudos as editors / talent in their own right.
We offer a no quibble Satisfaction Guarantee. We are so sure that not only will you enjoy the experience, as well as learn what you need from the course, that if you are not satisfied we will give you the same course again FREE of charge. It’s as simple as that, no argument*.
We are very proud to be recognised by so many of the world's leading post production software manufacturers for consistently high standards and customer satisfaction.
Through our manufacturer accreditation we are able to offer a full range of quality assessed certified courses, however we have also developed our own industry specific courses designed to release the creative person inside.
We can also fully bespoke and tailor any course to your liking. Take a look at our bespoke training section.
We are the preferred training provider for many leading media organisations including Viacom, ITV, BBC, Channel Five, Channel 4, BSkyB, Wall to Wall, Nomura Bank, to name but a few.
