Post-Production and Editing with Final Cut Pro X Workshop w/ Raj Padmanabh

Thursday, August 17, 2023, 6-9PM
PAVED Arts Production Centre

In this workshop we will begin with a review of the Final Cut Pro X interface and project workflow. The next step will be working with FCPX tools for reviewing footage and editing media into the Project timeline to create a scene. We explore FCPX features including, voiceover tool, colour correction, adding transitions, titles and graphical elements followed by adjusting audio levels, filters and repairs. Lastly the workshop will demonstrate outputting the video for various platforms such as streaming and other deliverables.

Tools Needed
If you have FCPX on a laptop it may help to follow along but it is not necessary. This introductory course will show how to work through a simple project.

Basic Skills
You should be comfortable using computers in general. FCPX is exclusive to Apple so any experience using Macs will be helpful.
