Video editing basics
Turn raw footage into engaging stories.
📖 Key ideas
- Editing selects, arranges and polishes clips into a story.
- Software: Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve (free), Final Cut Pro, CapCut.
- Workflow: import → organise → rough cut → fine cut → colour → audio → export.
- Timeline holds video and audio tracks.
- Back up project files and footage.
💡 Real-life example: Editing is cooking with raw ingredients: trim, combine and season until the dish (story) is delicious.
