Learn how to add some color and spice to your clips

Sounds, as we talked about already, is SUPER important to a film.  In fact, it is often more important than the video.

In this class you will likely need and want to download video clips for special effects as well as music and other audio.

YouTube is a rich resource for this, but do you know how to do it?  Let’s learn!

Titles are helpful at the beginning and the end of the movie.  They may also be important if you are making a documentary.
