Editing with Avid Media Composer

Description

his course covers the basic editing tools in AVID Media Composer so that students achieve efficiency by the end of it. Using a hands-on approach, students will start with the basics of 3-point editing and how to construct a scene, then move on to trimming dialogue, mixing music and sound effects, and creating titles and transitions. Audio adjustments and effects, multilayered video compositing, tracking, stabilization, various re-timing methods, and basic color-grading techniques will also be covered. This course provides a solid foundation in Media Composer audio and video effects capabilities. It will prepare students to take the exam to become an Avid Certified User in Media Composer, if they so wish, at the end of the course. For students enrolled in the MFA Program in Film, this is an elective that counts toward degree credits but does not replace B5100 Editing, a required course.
