FAQ

The questions people actually ask.

If yours isn't here, a counsellor answers it on a 20-minute call.

Can I learn editing on a normal laptop? +
Yes for this course: we cut in HD proxies, a professional workflow that runs on modest machines. You will also learn the optimisation habits that make bigger projects possible later.
Premiere or DaVinci: which do you teach? +
Both, deliberately. Premiere is the industry default employers list; Resolve owns colour and is free, the freelancer's edge. Two-NLE fluency is a hiring advantage we build in.
Will AI video tools replace editors? +
They replace mechanical cutting. Story rhythm, taste and client judgement remain human, and AI multiplies the output of editors who have them. The AI-pipeline module exists to put you on the right side of that shift.
What does a video editor earn? +
Studio and agency juniors start between Rs 2.5 and 4 lakh. Freelance rewrites the math: reel packages, wedding films and creator retainers commonly out-earn salaries within two years for consistent editors.
Do you cover wedding and event editing for Kerala's market? +
Yes, with its real economics: storytelling structure, turnaround discipline and pricing. It is a significant income line for editors here and we treat it professionally, not as an afterthought.
Will I have a showreel at the end? +
Yes, and it is the capstone: cut from your three delivered projects, sound-designed and premiered to a panel. Editing is hired on reels; the entire course walks backwards from yours.
Is it online or classroom, and is Malayalam support available? +
Both. In-person batches in Trivandrum, Kochi and Bengaluru, plus live online batches across Kerala and the GCC. Sessions are in clear English with Malayalam support.
Do you guarantee a job after the course? +
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. We provide structured placement support, real introductions and freelance guidance, with support continuing six months after you finish.
