"My time on the Final Cut Pro course with Abdul Mohamed at St Martins - had been worth every second! As a filmmaker I was searching for teaching that would give me confidence and inspiration. Abdul's teaching inspired and enthused me, a wonderful course and a wonderful mentor."
Luil Pérez 2010:
"Final Cut Pro with Abdul was very easy to understand - the first problem you come across when you are facing this program is the infinite amount of possibilities and characteristics; you don’t know where to start, how to begin, and once you do you might miss out a lot of options. it is somewhat a long and tedious process that you need to understand 100% in order to memorize each step, and this course is basically what gives you, along with a grounded understanding of video and film editing from the general idea to the final result. it also helps that Abdul knows plenty of information regarding other tools in video and film making, such as those concerning cinematography, computers and lighting, and he is always very happy to share his knowledge. as a teacher, he delivers the lessons at a very effective pace, making sure everyone has understood each subject before moving on but without going round in circles, and balancing perfectly theory and practice. I would definitely recommend this short course to anyone who would like to start their way with video editing - I was editing my videos with final cut pro after the second lesson, and after finishing the course I am still welcome to email him with questions. all in all, the short course with best value for money I have experienced at CSM."
