Article updated: February 27, 2017

Total Training is excited to announce our latest training course, Create a Background Video Website Using Premiere® Pro & Dreamweaver®, presented by Adobe Certified Expert, Daniel Scott.

About the course:

In this Create a Background Video Website Using Premiere® Pro & Dreamweaver® course, expert instructor Daniel Scott starts with the basics and goes through the full process of editing a video, adding effects, and then creates a website to showcase the video as a fullscreen background.

This is the perfect course for people new to the world of web design.

First learn how to select, edit, and export video. Next, learn how to create a responsive website, and add your video to the website. Lastly, get access to professional techniques and shortcuts and a wealth of additional resources to help you on your career path.

With project files included, you can follow along step-by-step to achieve the same professional results as Daniel, or use the files as a starting point for your own creativity.

By the time you’ve completed this course, you will have a solid foundation in creating and exporting a video in Adobe® Premiere Pro CC and building a basic responsive website in Adobe Dreamweaver CC, as well as gain insight into the techniques used by professional website designers.

What is the target audience?

What are the requirements?
