Avid Screencast HD

This is the fourth of several episodes covering a workflow for using Red Digital Cinema Cameras with your Avid editing application.

In this episode, we'll conform a sequence that was offline edited in Avid to Apple's Color, where you'll be able to grade from the original R3Ds. You will not believe it, but it's actually a pretty quick and painless process!

Sometimes the good, old title with static text just doesn't cut it. In this episode, we'll make the text be another layer of video.

Ever on an editing system that you can't install software on? And all they've got for image manipulation is MS Paint? Get stuff done with portable applications that run off your USB flash drive!

Examples include GIMP, an open-source Photoshop clone, and Songbird, an iTunes-like music player.

In this episode, we'll create a high-contrast, colorized look to an image -- simply because it looks cool. It's a great way to introduce somebody with a bang. Seriously, I have no idea why I call this the Kill Bill Effect, but I still like it, and maybe so will you!

In this episode, I'll show you how to remap your keyboard and give you a couple of ideas on what functions to map to it. If this does not make you at least 10% more productive, I'll refund your money.
