+ Tape-to-Tape Editing
Two sessions : $30.00
Video shot on location is rarely ready to play “as-is.” Sometimes all a program needs are titles at the beginning and credits at the end. Other times more extensive editing is required to take things out or maybe add something new. These and other changes are done in post-production editing. In this two-evening workshop, you’ll learn to take your video footage, and by editing it from one tape to another, turn it into a finished, complete program. Find Upcoming Classes > > >
