About the course

Throughout this course, I will give students the tools and techniques that I have found most effective in making engaging and successful videos. Students will then use these skills to edit their own video in Premiere Pro and upload their first video to YouTube.

Hi my name is Erin Lyons, welcome to “Video Editing: How to Edit and Upload Your First YouTube Video.” 

I started video editing over 3 years ago by creating dance films but now I specialize in vlog style videos; I’ve posted nearly 100 travel vlogs over the past year and a half to my YouTube channel called Traveling Atlas.

 

This class is aimed at students with a beginner skill level. I will be breaking down sections to be succinct, clear, and to allow students to bring their own creative ideas to the project. 

Here is the course outline: 

  1. Uploading and organizing video files to Premiere Pro
  2. Cutting videos down to first round of edits
  3. Structuring your video into a beginning, middle, and end (figuring out your story)
  4. Adding music and/or sound effects
  5. Color and audio correction
  6. Last round of cuts while finalizing with text/titles
  7. Exporting and uploading to YouTube

This course is great for people who have been wanting to start using YouTube to promote their business, make vlogs, or express themselves artistically. YouTube is a home to millions of types of videos and allows everyone to use their voice in one way or another. It’s also a great platform to build an audience. 

If you do not have Adobe Creative Cloud or Premiere Pro, you can download a Seven day free trial with this link

I’m sure this course will you the confidence you need to edit and upload their first video to YouTube. Let’s get started!

What can you learn from this course?

For our Class Project we will be creating a 3 to 5 minute video that can either be from your own video files if you already have an idea of what your first YouTube video will be  OR I will be attaching the video files that I will be demonstrating with; you may use these files and follow along with me. We will work on specific video editing techniques like:

  • B roll sequences
  • Time-lapse
  • Slow motion
  • Drone usage
  • Cutting to music

To be successful in this project, feel free to be inspired and make your own artistic choices. I will be giving you tools and techniques to use as a guideline but you do not have to follow exactly what I am doing to be successful. Be inspired to create something unique and share your work along the way!

** I ask that if you are using my footage as part of the learning process when it comes time to upload to YouTube that you do not make the content public. Make it unlisted so you can still post your final video to the Project Gallery and share with friends or family who has the link.**
