    Quarter Taken: Fall 2022 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    I highly recommend taking this editing class if you're interested in knowing more about editing, or just want an easy A film class. I got an A+ just by paying attention to the lectures. You don't need to study outside of class to get an A. I don't like to edit myself but I'm interested to understand the editing aspect of film, so the class is perfect for me since it does not require you to edit anything for homework or exams. However, if you're looking for a more hands-on experience in editing, this class may not be the one.
