Have you ever wondered how professional creators actually edit their videos?

In this class, you'll sit beside me as I edit an entire YouTube video from raw footage to the final export, explaining every decision along the way. Instead of learning isolated techniques, you'll experience a real editing workflow: the same process I use to create videos watched by hundreds of thousands of people.

We'll cover:

Creating a strong first 30 seconds that hooks viewers
Choosing and timing music for maximum impact
Recording and editing voiceovers
Cutting unnecessary moments to improve pacing
Using B-roll effectively to keep viewers engaged
Making invisible edits that feel natural
Removing redundancy and improving storytelling
The finishing touches that make a video feel professional
Common editing mistakes and how to avoid them

The principles taught in this class will help you create videos that are more engaging, more polished, and more enjoyable to watch.

By the end of the class, you'll understand not only how to edit, but also how to think like an editor, giving you a workflow you can apply to every future project.

No advanced editing experience is required, just a willingness to learn by following along with a real-world project.

About me:

I have a master’s degree in medical physics and firmly believe that anyone can be creative, regardless of their background. I have been making videos since I was a kid, starting without a camera, drawing pictures in Paint and animating them in Windows Movie Maker. Since then, I have attended courses, read books, and analyzed creators and films for years to craft my skills.

Today, I work at Maha Studio, a professional German YouTube company, creating and editing high-quality videos.

🎵 If you are interested in the Music I use 🎵:

I used to doubt it for months, here were my 3 doubts:

1. Is the music really that much better? -> YES, seriously

2. Having the songs separated by stems, is it that useful? -> Definitely, removing the voices and having the instrumental is one of many uses I get.

3. What if I want to stop? What happens to the videos that were already posted? -> No worries at all! In case you want to actually stop, any videos that were already posted, still become copyright free.

I have one regret and it was that I didn't start using Epidemic Sound earlier. Not only because I developed later music editing skills, but also that the quality really did improve afterwards.
