PAGEFLAKES ROUND 2

In my Pageflakes, under the Hollyn-Wood blog, I saw the post for Avid 1.0. He had a link to the commercial video put out of the original Avid non linear editing system. Avid is the industry standard for editing, and those who edit professionally have worked on or know about Avid. For film geeks, it’s a must. Check out the video here.
I’ve been using Avid since I was in High school from 2002 up till today. At first, I hated it. There’s a huge learning curve, especially for those who’ve never edited in their entire life. It was my first experience with editing anything, and it took me a couple of weeks to learn without having to ask for too much help.
Anyway, in the summer of 2002, I took a film workshop that taught me the Avid, and after that summer ended, I decided I wanted to be a filmmaker. So I bought my Canon ZR-50 camera, and I bought a cheap editing system, “Dazzle something” I think, and it was crap. I longed to use Avid again.
Christmas 2005, I got my wish. Soon, it’ll be time to upgrade to Media Composer, but until I can afford the 500 dollar upgrade, I’ll be fine with my old version for now.
