Introduction

This 2 day Authorised Adobe Premiere Pro training course will show you how to make the most of this non-linear video editing software package.

Our approachable, authorised Premiere Pro trainers will quickly get you using the software confidently while also sharing lots of tricks of the trade.

This is a hands-on course. It includes lots of time to practise what you are being taught and try things out for yourself.

By the time you finish, you’ll be comfortable using a wide range of Premiere Pro’s core features.

✔ It is a complete beginners’ course that covers all of the basics.
✔ Plenty of one-to-one attention and time to ask questions.
✔ Friendly expert trainers, small groups and a comfortable place to learn.
✔ All the materials and extras that you’ll ever need.
✔ Ongoing support and help with issues you have after the course.

What Will I Learn?

This course explores most of Adobe Premiere Pro. It will bring you to the level where you can setup, edit, export and manage a project with confidence.

Particular emphasis is given to those areas which contain traps for the beginner to make sure that you leave us able to work independently.

You’ll learn to:

Speed up your workflow importing stills, sequences and images using Adobe Bridge.
Efficiently manage large numbers of clips using bins, search and linking media.
Create stunning effects using keyframing, lighting effects and working with After Effects.
Quickly create and edit different types of transitions and titles.

Am I Ready For This Course?

This is a beginners’ course and you do not need previous experience with Premiere Pro to attend it.

So long as you have a reasonable understanding of Windows, and the ability to work with multiple windows, navigate the desktop and an understanding of computer file storage (i.e. drives, files and folders) you’ll be absolutely fine.

Your Training Day

Our courses run from 9.30am to roughly 4.15pm. We break for refreshments throughout the day and also have a break for a tasty, freshly prepared lunch.

We offer a relaxed, supportive learning environment and comfortable, fully air-conditioned facilities. We also have some of the nicest, friendliest instructors on the planet.

Also, you’ll receive:

✔ A full-colour A4 manual covering everything in the course so that you can recap.
✔ A USB stick for the course exercises to let you practise more in your own time.
✔ A Certificate of Attendance to show that you have been trained professionally.
