No. Our programs are beginner-friendly and built to start from the very beginning. Curiosity and commitment matter far more than any prior background.
No. Our programs are beginner-friendly and start from the very beginning.
That’s exactly what the conversation step is for — we’ll help you find the right fit based on your goals. You can also browse all courses first.
None. Complete beginners are welcome and start from the fundamentals of exposure and framing. If you already shoot, you’ll sharpen real craft fast.
It helps but isn’t required. If you want a foundation in cutting, our video editing course pairs naturally with this one.
For most people, video editing is the ideal starting point — the foundation of modern media and the most widely needed skill. From there you can specialise. If you already love the camera or color, you can start there instead.
No to both. Our courses are beginner-friendly, and you can start with what you have.
No. We start from the basics of the interface and build up. If you want a broader foundation in the craft of cutting alongside the software, our video editing course pairs naturally with this one.
For most people, Video Editing is the ideal foundation — the most in-demand skill and the base for almost everything else. If you're drawn to the camera or to color, you can start there instead.
No. Many of our best students started with zero experience and a lot of curiosity. You’ll work on our machines during class, so you don’t need a powerful computer to begin — though most students invest in one once they start taking paid work.
Small classes, real footage, working industry mentors, and genuine job support — combined in one hands-on, career-focused place.
Yes. Many students stack complementary crafts — for example editing plus DaVinci Resolve plus color grading — to become complete post-production professionals.
Overwhelmingly hands-on. You work on real footage and real projects from the start, guided closely by industry mentors in small classes.
A showreel of real edits cut in Premiere — weddings, music videos, ads — plus the speed and confidence to walk into a studio interview and prove it on their machine.
Yes. You finish with a showreel of real edits — weddings, music videos, ads — you can put straight in front of a studio or client. That portfolio matters far more than a certificate.
Editing pairs naturally with color grading , motion graphics and cinematography . Many students start as editors and grow into a fuller skill set — explore it across our courses .
Both. Cinematography runs as a standalone course from Rs. 25,000 , or you can add it on top of your video editing path so you learn to shoot and cut as one skill set. Contact us for current intake dates and the latest pricing.
This course focuses on shooting, but you’ll see how footage flows into the edit and grade . Take those courses too for the full pipeline.
They share fundamentals — light, lens, exposure, composition — but cinematography adds movement, time and shooting for the edit. Many students take both; see our photography course .
The Resolve course teaches the whole application — editing, color, audio, delivery. This course goes deep on the art and craft of the grade itself, the colorist’s eye. They complement each other.
No. Correction fixes an image so it looks right; grading shapes how it feels. You’ll learn correction first, then the creative grading that builds a look.
Both, and that’s the appeal. The scopes and tools are technical; the decisions are creative. We teach you to be confident with both.
Premiere is more common in Nepali editing jobs; Resolve is the leader for colour and all-in-one finishing. Many professionals use both, and we show you how they relate so you’re flexible.
Yes, for learning and for most work. We teach on it. You’ll also learn exactly what the paid Studio version adds and when it’s worth buying.
Both. You’ll learn to edit, grade, mix and deliver in Resolve. For colour as a deep specialism, it connects to our colour grading course .
Yes — and especially as a colourist, where trained people are scarce. Editors who can also grade and finish in Resolve are some of the most in-demand in the country.
The basics are — our video editing package introduces motion graphics so you can build simple titles and graphics. This is the full course that takes you to a professional, hireable level.
Adobe After Effects, the industry standard, plus how it links into Premiere Pro so your graphics flow straight into a real edit.
No. Motion graphics is about timing, type and design sense more than illustration. If you have an eye for what looks clean, you can do this.
Yes. Editing is part of the course — you’ll cull, correct and retouch in Adobe Lightroom so your final images look professional, not just well shot.
They share fundamentals — light, lens, exposure, composition — but photography is the still image and cinematography is the moving one. Many students take both; see our cinematography course .
Premiere is the most widely used editor in Nepali studios, so it’s the safest first tool for getting hired. Resolve is growing fast, especially for colour. Many editors end up using both, and we show you how they relate.
You’ll work on our machines with Premiere installed during class. For practice and paid work you’ll eventually want your own Adobe subscription — we’ll explain the current options and student pricing.
You’ll learn Premiere’s built-in Lumetri colour and Essential Graphics. For deeper work, those connect to our colour grading and motion graphics courses.
Yes. “Premiere Pro” is one of the most common lines in Nepali editing job posts. Studios need fast, reliable Premiere editors constantly, and trained ones are scarce.
Within a program, yes — modules are sequenced so each one builds on the last. Across programs you're free to start where you like and stack several, though we'll always suggest a sensible path.
No. You can start with what you have and train on our equipment. We'll guide you on what's worth buying as you grow, but a lack of gear should never stop you from beginning.
Yes — every program above links to its own course page with the complete breakdown. You can also message us for a printable syllabus before you enrol.
Primarily Premiere Pro, since that’s what most Nepali studios and agencies run on, with hands-on time in DaVinci Resolve too. You’ll leave fluent in the workflow real employers expect.

Get in touch to find out about starting your application and reserving your seat. Classes are small, so early is always better.
No. You’ll shoot on our gear during the course. Most students invest in their own camera once they start taking paid work, and we’ll guide you on a realistic first kit.
You’ll work on our calibrated setup in class. We’ll explain what matters in a grading setup — and how to start on a realistic budget — before you invest in your own.
You’ll work on our machines in class. Resolve likes a decent GPU for 4K, and we’ll guide you on a realistic setup before you invest — including how to work smoothly on modest hardware.

The program takes you from beginner to employable one real project at a time. We keep cohorts small and paced around real work rather than a fixed lecture schedule — contact us for current intake dates and duration.

Pass all your assessments, maintain full attendance, and perform consistently across every activity. The support goes to students who show real commitment and skill.
Roles across editing, cinematography, colour and motion — in wedding films, music videos, advertising, social and digital content, corporate production and more. Many also freelance or build their own businesses.

Yes. Demand for skilled editors, cinematographers, colourists and content creators is growing across weddings, music, advertising and digital media.
Yes — constantly. Weddings, music videos, ads and corporate shoots all need skilled camera people, and good ones are scarce. It’s one of the steadiest freelance markets in the industry.
Yes, and a scarce one. Production houses, wedding studios and agencies all need grading, and trained colorists are hard to find — which keeps the work steady and the rates strong.
That's how they're designed. You build employable skills and a real portfolio, and committed top performers receive direct job support and industry referrals.
