Learn different techniques to tell your story with professional standards from start to finish
Telling a compelling story through short film formats requires meticulous attention to detail. A well-constructed narrative is key, and it goes beyond the script and set. Throughout his career as a video editor and director of photography, Juanmi Cristóbal has learned that color, rhythm, shot length, and many more aspects of video editing greatly contribute to the narrative of a short film.
In this course, Juanmi teaches you how to edit a short film, sharing his experience and knowledge with you, to enhance your editing through visual narration techniques. In his previous courses, he focused on software that is widely used in professional editing, namely, Introduction to DaVinci Resolve for Color Correction, to master color editing with professional technique, and Introduction to Adobe Premiere Pro, where he teaches the most used software for editing films, TV, and web content, from start to finish.
