Final Cut Express Training

3.    You also need to look though the FINAL CUT EXPRESS training videos. Miss will give you all a brief idea of the kinds of special effects that can be created in FCE and she will put up videos that show how to do some of the special effects – these will be linked to the YOUTUBE channel and available on the blog, linked under the “Technical Help” tab. The BASIC training videos are located on TEACHING RESOURCES/STUDENT/Media Studies/Final Cut Express training. You will see there are instruction videos numbered 1-10 and also an item called “Exercises”. It is in this item (‘Exercises”) that you will find the PROJECT versions of the FCE files the training refers to – in other words, you watch the video tutorial and you DO THE EXERCISE shown in the tutorial by opening the corresponding FCE project file in the ‘Exercises’ folder. These are all .fcp file types and will open in Final Cut ready for you to try out. You do not need to do the introduction videos unless you want to as these are really only the outlines of how the training works and what you will cover. Each is LABELLED with what is covered in each video and these are professional videos used across the world and as such are organised very effectively and efficiently for you to follow in the order they are presented.
