Online Only

This lively and practical 2.5 hour online workshop offers a friendly introduction to screen writing and film editing, perfect for beginners and creatives looking to build confidence with moving image. You’ll explore the fundamentals of film editing through clear, accessible techniques that can be …more easily recreated using most free editing software. The session is designed to be interactive, collaborative, and creative—learning by doing rather than watching from the sidelines. What Makes This Workshop Different Midway through the session, there’ll be a 30 minute creative break where you’ll film something short and simple using your phone.

This real time process becomes a shared “worked example”, with discussion and collaboration throughout—giving you valuable insight into editing decisions as they happen. What You’ll Gain • A clear understanding of basic film editing principles • Practical techniques you can apply immediately • Experience of seeing raw footage shaped into a finished piece • The chance to ask questions and learn collaboratively in real time Whether you’re self-taught and looking to pick up some tips or simply curious about how editing works, this workshop offers an approachable, creative introduction in a supportive online environment. less
