Learn how to sound edit like a pro with Emmy award-winning filmmaker Dandan Liu!

When it comes to video, the quality of your sound matters. It matters a lot. In fact, it influences the perceived quality of your video more than your visuals.

Despite this, sound editing has always been taught in a lengthy, confusing, and complicated manner. There is lots of conflicting advice out there, and much of these sound engineering tutorials are geared towards music mixing—not sound editing for video or film. Join Dandan as she presents a clean, concise, and streamlined 5 step method that you can use to enhance the sound of your video or film.

Together with Dandan, you'll learn how to:

• Clean up your sound and fix 5 common issues.

• Hear and work with the 5 essential sound frequency ranges for video editing.

• Enhance your dialogue.

• Make your vocals sound more present and warm.

• Balance your mix with music and sound effects.

Besides teaching you the technicals, this class will also teach you how to hear sound. Don't be surprised if you leave this class hearing sound in new, more fascinating ways in your everyday life.

Whether you are posting videos on YouTube or making a commercial for your company, the method taught in this class will help you deliver your message with high quality sound. Even if you are making podcasts, the principles learned here will help your episodes stand out in that noisy world.
