A complete Premiere Pro CC course for beginners that will teach you all the Fundamentals of Premiere Pro by practicing and doing exercises.
All you need to start this course is the Adobe Premiere Pro software and nothing else, you don't need to have any prerequisite knowledge.
Learn by Doing
This is not a course where you can just sit down, watch and absorb information. You don't really learn anything that way, instead, I want you to learn by doing.
We will get started by exploring the Premiere Pro app, navigating, moving around and knowing some basic tools then we will go straight to doing exercises.
With every new exercise, we will discover a new Tool or a new Technique in Premiere Pro.
This course is structured in 5 Chapters :
Getting Started
Editing
Motion Graphics
Transitions & Effects
Color
We will start by simple and easy exercises and as we advance, things will gradually become more and more challenging.
But it's very important that you do the exercises and I can't stress this enough.
If you are planning to just watch the course the same way you watch Netflix, then you probably shouldn't waste your time.
My Promise to You :
If you are dedicated and do all the exercises along with me, at the end of the course, I guarantee you will know all the basics and will be able to use Premiere Pro with ease.
With more practice and advanced learning you can become a master Editor.
