The teacher was good and knowledgeable but she set the content at such a basic level that I was very bored and felt I could have covered 3 or 4 times as much material if she was working at the pace my brain requires. I am not so sure that I will go tomorrow.

That said, there was at least one person who seemed to have trouble getting to grips with the material so perhaps the course content was just right. All I am saying is that if you are quite comfortable with technology and like to be challenged you will need to go for an intermediate course at CityLit because the basic course may be too easy for you.

I attend the basic editing Final Cut course which is a short course of 2 full days over 2 weeks.

I was new to Final Cut but others in the class had more experience but we learnt together

The teacher is excellent in not just teaching you how to use the software but understanding the fundamentals of programme making and editing.

This is a starter course and does what is says on the tin. gives you the basics of how to use this software. Very well recommended.
