Video Production For Beginners: Make Videos From Scratch
What you'll learn
- Know the process of video production from start to finish.
- Understand the basic concepts and fundamentals that make up any good video.
- Edit videos using iMovie.
- Create creative, freelance, corporate and vlog-style videos.
Requirements
- You'll need a camera you're comfortable with and know how to use (at the very least: how to turn it on, shoot video, adjust a few settings). A two-year-old or newer camera phone will work great. A simple point-and-shoot is also fine.
- You'll need a Mac computer with iMovie 10.1 software. I'll be teaching the editing section with iMovie only. You can take the rest of the course if you don't have iMovie, but you won't be able to follow along during the editing lectures.

Hi, I'm Randy! And I love video. Over the past 9 years, I've invested a lot of my time and money into learning video production. I'm college educated as well as self-taught. I spent a year living in Korea where I was also fortunate enough to travel all around Asia and experience new cultures and adventures. That gave me the confidence I needed to move to Hollywood and pursue film production full time.
I also love to share what I learn. And that's what drew me to Udemy. Learning, creating, and sharing are three of my biggest passions. So I hope to share my knowledge with you and help you grow in your video production journey.
Come say hi! I hope to see you in the course.
