SCHEDULE:

Five sessions: 10/7, 10/8, 10/14, 10/15, 10/21 from 6:00pm to 9:00pm at Docs In Progress

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Travel from New York to San Francisco through stunning landscapes, historic towns, and vibrant cities—and learn to craft a cinematic promo video of your journey using DaVinci Resolve, using stunning footage from a real documentary. Using DaVinci Resolve, you will work with provided footage, music, drone shots, and voiceovers, selecting the elements that best represent the journey across America.

This promo video aims to provide students with a hands-on, practical approach to learning the editing, color grading, and delivery pages of DaVinci Resolve. By the end of the course, students will have a solid understanding of how to use the program independently for future video projects. Students will use the editing systems at Docs In Progress, with DaVinci Resolve, a free program they can continue working with after the course.
