The Art of Film and Video Editing Specialization

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to transform ordinary footage into cinematic visuals using advanced color correction and grading techniques.

You’ll gain practical experience with Lumetri Scopes, HSL secondary adjustments, masks, and creative grading approaches that control mood and tone. Alongside color, you’ll learn how to emphasize visual storytelling by refining rhythm, experimenting with blur effects, and using shot composition to enhance emotion. Led by Baudilio Perez, this course is ideal for beginner to intermediate editors, film students, or digital creators who already know how to assemble a sequence in Adobe Premiere Pro but want to give their work a polished, professional aesthetic. To succeed, you should have a working knowledge of editing basics and access to Adobe Premiere Pro. Unlike technical tutorials that focus only on software tools, this course emphasizes how color, timing, and shot selection shape the audience’s experience of a story. You’ll practice with real-world examples and develop an eye for subtle cinematic choices—skills that prepare you to grade, pace, and craft projects for film, streaming platforms, or social media.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to enhance your films with professional-level visual effects and immersive sound design directly in Adobe Premiere Pro.

You’ll learn how to stabilize shots, add cinematic blurs, and create effects such as fire, sparkles, and animated text—all without needing external plugins. Just as importantly, you’ll explore sound design: layering effects, applying reverb, balancing spatial audio, and using compressors and equalizers to give your scenes depth and realism. Taught by Baudilio Perez, this course is perfect for filmmakers, content creators, or editors who already understand editing and color correction but want to push their projects into the realm of high-impact professional storytelling. To be successful, you should have a working knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro and editing fundamentals. What sets this course apart is its focus on sound and visuals as equally vital storytelling tools. You won’t just add effects for spectacle—you’ll learn how to align them with narrative intention. By the end, you’ll be equipped to produce promos, shorts, or branded content with striking visuals and soundscapes that elevate your work to cinematic quality.
