Product Description

Book Description
The fastest, easiest way for experienced Avid editors to learn Final Cut Pro.
The only book to teach Final Cut Pro from an Avid editor's point-of-view.
Uses Avid images and terminology as familiar references to guide readers through Final Cut Pro operations.
Bypasses basic editing how-tos for advanced Final Cut Pro tutorials written by professional editors for professional Avid editors. Avid introduced the first professional non-linear video editing system more than 20 years ago, enjoying a lucrative stranglehold on the market until Apple released Final Cut Pro at relatively rock bottom prices a few years ago. With Final Cut Pro growing in popularity, film and video editors must learn both Avid Media Composer and Final Cut Pro to stay marketable. Final Cut Pro for Avid Editors- A Guide for Editors Making the Switch is the only book that teaches Final Cut Pro from an Avid Media Composer user's perspective, using Avid images and terminology as references to guide readers through the program's features and functions. This task-based book doesn't waste time going over editing basics that professional editors already know, but rather explains how Avid editors can get the same job done in Final Cut Pro with detailed feature comparisons, practical conversion tips, and instructions on Final Cut Pro features that aren't available in Media Composer.
Diana Weynand is president and founder of Weynand Training International, a training and consulting firm with a long list of clients that includes ABC, NBC, CBS, Paramount Pictures, and Universal. In its 20-year history, Weynand Training International developed the first training schools for non-linear editing in conjunction with the Montage Corporation and George Lucas's EditDroid. The firm also delivered the first series of Avid training courses for the Motion Pictures Editors Guild. Weynand is currently directing and editing the documentary, "Making Movies Sing!" --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Synopsis
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.
