About this Course

By the end of this course, taught by Baudilio Perez, you’ll be able to confidently set up and organize projects in Adobe Premiere Pro, build sequences, and apply the core editing principles that shape professional film and video projects. You’ll learn the language of editing—rhythm, ellipsis, timing, and transitions—and practice bringing raw footage to life through deliberate choices that strengthen storytelling. This course is designed for aspiring filmmakers, content creators, and editors who already understand basic video concepts like resolution, frame rates, and file formats. To be successful, you should have Adobe Premiere Pro installed and some familiarity with shooting or editing video, even at a beginner level. What makes this course unique is its balance of theory and practice. You won’t just learn which buttons to press—you’ll study how images, scripts, and edits come together to create cinematic meaning. Through exercises based on short films, commercials, and music videos, you’ll master foundational tools like keyframes, blend modes, text editing, and exports, preparing you to approach any editing project with confidence and artistry. Please note: Adobe Premiere Pro software is required to complete this course Instructor bio: Baudilio Perez is a director, actor, and film score composer with a passion for storytelling through cinema.
