Industry Reviews

"I recommend this book to everyone who wants to learn Avid. Sam Kauffmann breaks down the entire process - from ingesting media and making your first cuts to color correction and delivery. It's an excellent resource to help editors new to Avid get up to speed quickly."

-Sofi Marshall, Editor, 6 Years (2015), Wild Canaries (2014), A Teacher (2013)

"Each page is liberally illustrated with colour screen grabs (...) to help you follow along, step-by-step with the specific instructions. This is why it's an ideal book for anyone learning the software for the first time as you can learn how to import, organise, edit and polish your first project in a few chapters worth of reading. Avid Editing (6th Ed.) is probably the most up to date book on editing in Avid you can buy today."

- Jonny Elwyn
