Training is a high priority at all levels of Virtual Assist USA. As a people-focused organization, we spend time trying to understand what will improve our services to clients. Also, in our culture of accountability, we want to ensure that our employees are continously giving and receiving training. Our culture values training, improvement and development. As we work with our clients to develop their 2019 strategies, many of them are interested in including video marketing.
Our team member, Rachel, recently completed an intense, in-depth training for Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2019. Her mastery of this video editing program, combined with her previous video editing knowledge and experience, has now unlocked the potential of the powers of video-editing for our clients.
This course was taught by pro filmmaker Ashley Kennedy and Rachel was instructed in the areas of editign video and audio, correcting color, adding titles and effect and more. The project-based approach of the course instructor lended context to each of the tools, allowing our Virtual Assistant Rachel to experience both the technical and creative sides of the editing process. Rachel was led through the entire post-production workflow—including media import and organization, editing and trimming, audio adjustment, applying and modifying effects, color correction, titles, and output. Rachel is one of our Virtual Assistant team members who is ready to hit the ground running and create professional video projects with Premiere Pro.

It has been used to edit feature films, such as Deadpool, Gone Girl, Captain Abu Raed, and Monsters, and other venues such as Madonna's Confessions Tour. Premiere Pro is used by Hollywood filmmakers, TV editors, YouTubers, videographers — anyone with a story to tell, including you.
