- [Voiceover] Hi, I'm Ashley Kennedy. Welcome to the Final Cut Pro X Essential Training. In this course, I'll show you many of Final Cut's powerful organizational tools. I'll show you basic and intermediate editing techniques as we work in both documentary and dramatic narrative projects. We'll take a look at how to enhance your program's audio using many of the integrated audio editing and equalization tools, as well as how to use Final Cut's robust color corrections tools to perform both primary and secondary color correction.
We'll explore how to apply all types of effects to enrich your video, graphics and audio, and I'll show you how to input, output, media manage, and troubleshoot your materials so that you can feel comfortable with the technical components of editing, as well as the artistic. So let's have fun as we begin to take a look at the many exciting possibilities inside of Final Cut Pro X.
