Excellent Handbook For Avid Editors of All Levels
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
A great reference for for any Avid editing suite. The Avid handbook is packed with strategies for workflow that offer huge time efficiencies. Steve Bayes is a wealth of information not just on Avid editing, but on video in general. He explains the concepts in a clear and concise fashion. I found the tips on exporting and color space considerations particularly helpful. I would highly recommend this book.
The first choice for new and experienced Avid editors
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is a "must have" book for all Avid editors. It concentrates on workflow issues and gives the editor insight into what the logic has been in developing how the Avid editing applications function. This book is as much "why" as "how to" and therefore transcends software version changes and updates that cause other manuals to become obsolete.
