Avid Event: Explore New Tools to Enhance Your Post-Production Workflows

Avid Product Evangelist Michael Krulik introduces a range of powerful new functionalities to elevate the Media Composer editing experience.

The cornerstone of these enhancements lies in the upgraded AI engine, now with an enriched toolset tailored specifically for advanced transcription and refined post-production workflows and collaboration for editorial, visual effects, and audio teams.

Key highlights:

  • Introducing Avid Huddle: In response to the evolving landscape of collaboration, this innovative platform enables users to review and approve cuts and content directly from Media Composer, regardless of location. Collaboration has never been easier or more efficient.
  • Transcript Tool: Introducing a revolutionary real-time, searchable, and dynamic display of source file transcripts to enhance editing efficiency and empower users with unparalleled media content access.
  • Complete Picture and Sound Roundtrip: Seamlessly integrating workflows between Media Composer and Pro Tools has always been a priority. Now enjoy a smooth and cohesive editing experience from start to finish.
  • OpenTimelineIO Export: Recognizing the importance of flexibility in modern workflows, this new functionality enables users to seamlessly export projects for VFX and online—to external platforms while maintaining the integrity of edits.

With these groundbreaking updates, Media Composer reaffirms its position at the forefront of editing software, providing users with powerful tools to streamline and enhance workflows. We remain committed to empowering our users with the tools they need to bring their creative vision to life.
