not a bad tutorial. Would like to see an intermediate tutorial released. The previous turorial covered a little more.

I purchased A-Bundle of 7 different collections of the tutorial early this year. After each learning, I got to know that MacProVideo tutorials worth more than its price.
I will continue patronising them, buying any new product most especially on Final Cut Pro.
