Setting it Right: Hidden Settings for the Power User
You’re not a beginner! So why are you using the default settings of your Avid? Save yourself hours, learn to work smarter, all by tweaking the way your Avid is setup. Learn all sorts of setting adjustments to allow yourself to customize your avid.
Audience: Ideal for Media Composer/Xpress Pro Intermediate to Advanced User.
Instructor: Yossy Tessone, Certified Instructor, Future Media Concepts
11:45am - 1:00pm
Key to Life: SpectraMatte and Beyond
Blue Screen. Green Screen. We all scream at key-ing. Avid’s SpectraMatte is a 16 bit keyer that can get the job done right. Skip taking your keying work to other apps. This session will show you how to key anything (including DV).
Audience: Ideal for Media Composer users needing to perform keying work.
Instructor: Jim Maxwell, Editor, Avid Certified Instructor
2:00 - 4:45pm
In-Depth: Clever Corrective Cognition - Color Correction Done Right
The DV shots don’t match the archival footage. The flesh-tones don’t match anywhere, and the sunset is far from dynamic. How do you get the show ready for delivery? How do you solve all the problems? We’ll examine a real world example to see how color correction saved the day.
Audience: This session is ideal for the casual or expert editor who needs to see how far Color Correction can go (and how to do it best!)
Instructor: Yossy Tessone, Certified Instructor, Future Media Concepts
5:00 - 6:15pm
Magnificent Marquee: Advanced Titling Techniques
Confused by Marquee? Who wants to read a 1,000 page manual? This session will clue you in on how Marquee works - and help you get your text crawl, spin, extrude and fly in from Infinity.
Audience: Ideal for the Avid Xpress Pro, Media Composer or Symphony editor who opened Marquee and found the interface was from another planet.
Instructor: Jeff Greenberg, Principal Instructor, Future Media Concepts
