Advanced Editing Techniques

(4 Credits)

In this class, students will advance their knowledge of Avid Media Composer in an industry-standard environment. Using professionally shot dailies, students will practice organizing their drives and media, setting up a project, syncing and grouping footage, editing the provided footage and then defending their work and storytelling choices. This class simulates a professional environment to prepare the students both technically and creatively for the industry. During the final weeks of the course, the students will get the chance to apply the learned technical and creative skills by serving as Editors on works created in the collaboration directing classes.
