FOUNDATIONS OF VIDEO: THE ART OF EDITING

One of the most integral parts of filmmaking happens after the camera stops 
rolling. In fact, the way that you edit your footage together is what tells-and 
sells-the story to your audience. Learn how to examine a script, review your 
material, and shape raw footage into a work of art in this course with longtime 
film and TV veteran Norman Hollyn.

Start with an overview of concepts like the rule of threes, review a sampling 
of footage from films past and present, and then dive into script analysis. 
Find out when and when not to make cuts, how to collaborate with clients and 
directors during recutting, and how to ground the emotional backdrop for your 
piece with music and sound. Norman closes with a look at adapting to different 
genres and filmic styles.
