Product Description
Product Description
The only Final Cut Pro 4 training designed for Avid editors and certified by Apple! Using Avid images and terminology, master teacher Diana Weynand shows you how to perform the tasks you've been doing in Media Composer by using Final Cut Pro instead. You will find detailed feature comparisons, practical conversion tips, and instructions on how to use Final Cut Pro features that aren't available in Media Composer. You'll also learn about what's new in version 4: asymmetric trimming, multitrack audio mixing, multiple video stream support, and more. Each chapter represents a complete lesson in some aspect of Final Cut Pro 4 with a project with exercises to reinforce the lessons and a review section. A DVD includes all of the chapters' lesson files and media.

Format:Paperback
The title says it all. For an editor used to working on Avid this is more useful than the manuals supplied with the product.

Moving from Avid to FCP? This book is great!
16 Dec 2002
Format:Paperback
We have been an Avid only edit house for years, but reciently purchased two Final Cut systems. Most of the transition was pretty easy, but trying to figure out how to do some of the things in FCP that we did in our sleep on the Avid slowed us down a bit. This book draws great parallels between the two systems.

This book Yes Indeed
30 Dec 2002
Format:Paperback
As an Avid editor and now learning FCP, I can recommend this book for helping to understand where everthing is. This book is a must unless you want to tear your hair out. If you know how it feels going from Media Composer to DS, then you will understand why you need this book and I might add others.

Up and running on FCP in a week
18 Mar 2005
Format:Paperback
If you are ever forced to quickly learn Final Cut pro for the odd job where Avid is not a viable option, or you want to start editing your on stuff on the cheap, buy this, read it and practise it for a week and you will be a Pro at Pro, knowing everything there is to know, at least, where to find it and whether it is doable or not. It is a book written by an Avid editor for Avid editors who have to go through the same learning curve. You can be very surprised going through it on how similar the two editing systems are and most of all, how quickly you can synthesise the information and make it second nature. I fervently recommend this book being so well written, going always to the point and covering everything properly.
