Class Info

We all know of Adobe’s huge array of products and services related to graphic design, animation, video and audio editing (among many others!) Did you know that there are many alternatives to Adobe applications that work just as well and won’t break the bank? In this course we will introduce some alternatives to Adobe’s popular four applications: Premiere, Photoshop, After Effects, and Audition. Many of the applications are free or very low cost, and will work on a Mac or a PC. By the end of the course we hope that you will have some more tools in your post-production toolbox.

Proof of Brooklyn Residency

For Cohort & Certification Courses Only

  • Why do I have to show that I’m a Brooklyn resident?
    • If you do not show that you’re a Brooklyn resident, you won’t be able to use the full power of your certification with BRIC— which means that you won’t have free access to our cameras, tripods, audio recorders, TV studios, or Adobe Creative Cloud.
    • FOR CERTIFICATION COURSES ONLY: You must submit proof of Brooklyn residency in order to get free access to equipment and studio time. We’ve compiled a list of documents we accept to show that you’re a Brooklyn resident.

ABSENCE & CANCELLATION POLICY
