Video editing
There are several computers with the Adobe suite, including Premiere Pro for video editing available in the Faculty of Dance library. For details of how to book time on these, visit Using Adobe applications in the Faculty of Dance.
We are unable to offer licences to install the Adobe suite on your own devices, however, we’ve collated a list of alternative applications for video editing which you can use on your own computers or mobile devices which you can find in the Video Editing section of this knowledgebase.
