It is not meant to be hand soldered.

It's been over twenty years since I've done much soldering. At the very least you'll need:

• rosin core solder
  
• low power soldering iron (overheating the contacts will destroy the chip)
  
• the smallest soldering iron tip
  
• desoldering bulb (for screw ups)
  
• a very steady hand
  
• a lot of patience.

It is not meant to be hand soldered.

You can totally hand solder such chips (QFPs and such). We do this everyday around here (and much worse, like QFNs)

[*]the smallest soldering iron tip

I definitely wouldn't. We don't typically solder one pin at a time with such a chip. Nowadays we do drag soldering with a knife tip (which isn't exactly small)

But this takes some experience. If you're new at soldering, this isn't what you'd start with. You need to know precisely how much solder to use, how to use liquid flux (preferably the no-clean type), how to use a temperature controlled soldering iron, how to un-short pins on a chip when it happens... I would very much recommend learning on simpler devices (like a SOIC8) and moving on to something more complex as you gain skill and experience. If you try to do this as your first job, you're pretty much guaranteed to destroy it.

As for a half-decent how-to video, try

but there's tons of them out there if you search.
