Learning avid

I familiarized myself with Avid today before doing my proper videos in an attempt to be fully prepared by the time that I start editing my videos in it. The tutorials involved importing video, mixing different video with different audio in the background and trimming the video.

I found Avid quite easy to use once you pick up the basics of overwriting or splicing-in different media. The only point of frustration was importing source video and the amount of time it sucked up. To counter this obstacle I cut out all the segments of footage I wished to use in Quicktime and saved them as separate videos which could be imported quickly.
