What is the best way to learn editing?

The best way to learn any skill is through practice. Start with simple projects and gradually move on to more complex ones, use footage you shoot yourself or cut your teeth by repurposing other material. Experiment with different editing techniques to understand how they impact the final product.

Familiarise yourself with the software: Choose professional video editing software such as Avid, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut X or Adobe Premiere Pro.

Connect with other video editors and filmmakers through online forums and social media groups and share ideas, techniques and styles. Find a great course led by an industry expert that matches your skill level. Our courses cover all levels from being a starter to being an experienced industry pro.
