Advanced Video Editing brings together creative post-production techniques, visual effects workflows and professional editing methods to help learners develop more sophisticated video projects. The course focuses on practical techniques across After Effects and Premiere Pro, providing structured guidance for editors who want to move beyond basic cutting and explore motion tracking, compositing, rotoscoping, animation and efficient production workflows.

The course begins with advanced After Effects techniques, including Dynamic Linking for moving between applications and motion tracking for attaching graphics or effects to moving footage. Learners explore 3D camera tracking, depth and perspective, alongside an introduction to Mocha tracking workflows. Practical demonstrations cover background removal, green screen keying, Content-Aware Fill and the Rotobrush tool, helping learners understand different approaches to isolating subjects and modifying scenes.

Further lessons develop compositing and animation skills through call-outs, null objects, tracked visual elements and screen-based effects. Learners also work through practical examples involving weather presentation composites, model effects and more detailed rotoscoping tasks. These techniques provide experience with combining multiple visual elements into a more convincing final composition.

The Premiere Pro section focuses on efficient editing and creative control. Learners discover proxy workflows for smoother performance, professional editing approaches and different cut types, including jump cuts, J-cuts and L-cuts. The course also explores keyframe animation, multi-stage text animation, masking techniques and creative effects.

Technical knowledge is strengthened through lessons on frame rates, time remapping, speed ramping and export settings. Together, these topics help learners make more informed decisions about motion, pacing, playback and final output quality. By combining editing fundamentals with more advanced visual techniques, the course supports the development of a versatile post-production skill set suitable for increasingly ambitious creative projects.
