About this course
Descript turns your recording into an editable transcript, so deleting a sentence in the text deletes it in the audio and video. This course takes a complete beginner from a raw recording to a published episode: importing or recording, cleaning the transcript, removing filler words and dead air, layering screen recordings and B-roll, applying Studio Sound and Overdub where they genuinely help, and exporting or publishing to a host. Every lesson ends with a concrete worked example and the licensing, consent, and quality facts you need before you ship.
