Final Cut Pro 7 Essential Training

with Abba Shapiro



Final Cut Pro 7 Essential Training demonstrates why Final Cut Pro is the primary tool for professional video editors. It gives users access to nonlinear editing workflows, collaboration features, and creative tools. Apple Certified instructor Abba Shapiro teaches the core features and tools that will take a hodgepodge of video clips and turn them into a finished project. He moves through the entire process, from selecting and refining the best takes to building a story. Using advanced editing techniques, he shows how to refine that story into a tight and effective show. Abba covers all the steps needed to get up and running, cut a story, mix audio, and deliver a final project. Exercise files accompany the course.
Topics include:
  • Preparing for an optimal Final Cut Pro editing experience
  • Taking control of the Timeline by mastering the interface and learning the best keyboard shortcuts
  • Learning the best practices for bringing clips into the Timeline
  • Refining the Timeline with Ripple, Roll, Slip, and Slide edits
  • Performing quick and easy color corrections
  • Understanding and using the new markers features
  • Importing video and audio files from tape, P2 media cards, and music CDs
  • Understanding how to shoot and edit with multiple cameras
  • Sharing a finished project on DVD, an MP3 player, or YouTube
