Video editing for beginners

Duration: 14 Days

In 2 weeks, you'll edit videos that clients are willing to pay ₦20,000 – ₦80,000 for. Starting from zero.

Video editing is one of the most in-demand skills in Nigeria right now. Every business, content creator, church, school, and brand needs edited videos and most of them don't have time to do it themselves. That's where you come in.

This 14-day course is built for complete beginners. You'll learn using CapCut (free and available on your phone), the most widely used editing tool for Nigerian freelancers. By the end, you'll have a portfolio of real edited videos you can show clients and start getting paid.

No laptop required. No prior experience needed. Just you, your phone, and two weeks of focused learning.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

✦ CapCut basics — cutting, trimming, and arranging clips

✦ Colour grading and how to make videos look cinematic

✦ Editing Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts, and long-form videos
