FAQ
Do I need editing skills?
Basic assembly happens in the studio. Any editor helps for complex cuts, but the course works without one.
Can I use my own face?
Yes — the avatar module covers using your own likeness and the consent side of it.
What does one clip cost?
It depends on model and length; the course includes a credit table and cost-saving rules.
Is it good for ads?
Yes, one block is dedicated to short social formats and product clips.
