Creating a Promotional Video for an Event

Welcome to the final practical chapter of the book. In this chapter, we will create a promotional video for a fake event of our choosing and use some of the features we have already used, but will also use the split-screen feature that we learned about back in Chapter 6. We will start by thinking up a plan in a way that guides us without being overly constrictive. We will then use a few handy features we’ve talked about throughout the book. After we finalize the editing, we will export it and from that point on, you may do with it as you please!

In this chapter, we will cover the following:

  • Preparing the plan
  • Creating an eye-catching video
  • Finalizing and exporting our promotional video

This will be a short chapter, as we covered some of the applications of effects, transitions, and animations in the previous chapter.
