Final Cut Pro

Primary tool for ingest, organization, editing, audio, music, color, graphics, captions, channel versions, export, and archiving. Training should prioritize a repeatable professional workflow over mastering every feature.

The MotionVFX Design Studio is offered to each participant at no cost for the duration of the program. The package includes lower thirds, titles, logo animation, transitions, and more. Participants remain responsible for timing, hierarchy, restraint, and Brand fit.

Claude

Claude may organize evidence but cannot invent claims, quotes, or emotional stakes.
