Learning to edit video

[deXxterlab97]

Hello everyone, 

I have been creating YouTube contents for almost 7 years now.

I mainly self explore programs and self teaching myself with the basics of how programs works.

So I usually stick to programs with easy interface.

However, I want to step up my skills and learn proper video editing.

What would be some good sites for that? 

I create various contents but with focus on text editing since I make lyrics video.

I wanted to learn kinetic typography a lot but deemed to hard.

Free sites are preferred but program costs are covered by me so no problem there.

Example:

 

TL;DR good websites to learn about video editing in-depth

lynda.com

 

edit: although it's literally offline at the moment which makes the recommendation look sketchey as hell lol

For me, best source of information and tutorials is youtube or just various sites Google shows you when you are looking for something specific

no i literally just remember hearing about it from a different youtuber

it seems fine for TEACHING video editing

BUT....... if you ever have problems or questions related to video editing or software of any kind ... creativecow.net is the best place to get any info on pretty much anything.

You can always try something like: "program name basic tutorial", or you can start with something specific like that kinetic typography you mentioned. That's basically how I've learnt to work with After Effects
