Completely updated for current HD, UHD, 2K, and 4K workflows, Avid Editing blends the art and aesthetics of motion picture editing with technical, hands-on instruction. Appropriate for beginners and intermediate users who need to refresh their knowledge of essential post-production techniques, this fully revamped and full-color sixth edition is also an excellent tool for editors coming to Avid from other non-linear editing platforms. Topics covered include trimming, audio, effects, titles, color correction, customization, inputting, and outputting. A robust accompanying online eResource features professionally shot footage and Avid project files, allowing readers to work alongside the lessons taught in the book.

The new edition covers:

  • Avid Media Composer licensing choices
  • Changes to the Avid user interface
  • Basic and advanced visual effects
  • Mastering Avid's audio tools
  • Exploring Avid's Title Tool and NewBlue Titler Pro
  • Understanding double-system sound techniques
  • Syncing picture and sound files
  • Understanding and applying LUTs
  • The latest HD, UHD, 2K, and 4K Workflows
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
