This intermediate course aims to supplement students’ knowledge and skills on video editing. For structuring and organising of visual and audio time-based materials, students will be introduced to some of the key computer software as used in the creative industries, Adobe Premiere Pro. However, software alone doesn’t make for great art. The course therefore also provides elementary studies of structure and form in experimental moving images.

The course will be conducted mostly in workshops environments to deliver skills and knowledge with actual practices: files transfer, linear editing, multiple layered image compositing, speed, colour and light manipulations, filters and effects, merging graphics into moving images, and – last but not least – basic sound mixing and sound filter applications for video work.

The course aims to familiarise students with principal functions and features, and point towards solution strategies when using these editing programme. Fluency in these skills will help students to work for various digital media at more advanced levels, including single channel video art, video installation art, hypermedia, and projects of experienced design.
