Learn Adobe Premiere Pro Fundamentals

With Adobe Premiere Pro you can edit videos for social media, TV, movies, or any video platform. Learn to being in video, photos, and B-roll into a Premiere Pro project. Then put them together into a sequence removing unwanted parts, animating the photos to make them more interesting, adding transitions, and more. In the end you'll export a final video you can upload to any social media platform or send to a client for them to use however they wish.

“Overall experience on Zoom was maybe even better than in IRL classroom because the instruction takes place right on your own screen, with less distraction. Great overall experience.”
“Given the fact that we had to do this entire class remotely due to Covid-19, I didn’t have very high expectations it would run so smoothly. However, I don’t think it could’ve gone any better. Not only do I feel very comfortable with the program now, but I’m actually excited to use it!”
“This was the first online class I’ve taken with ND and it was a great experience. Looking forward to the other classes I’ve signed up for!”
