There are six layers in film editing: A-roll, B-roll, narration or dialogue, music, sound effects, and color correction. Each of these layers is described at a basic level in this learning path. At each step, you get familiar with one layer and practice it on your own film. Bring your footage to class so you can learn how to edit it :)
