Working on shared storage for editing, grading and finishing has completely changed our workflow. Before we were very limited by the local storage, but now we’re able to access the storage from workstations all over the school. This flexibility, combined with the speed and reliability of the technology, has transformed the editing process for our students.
PETER POSGAARD, TECHNICAL MANAGER AT THE NATIONAL FILM SCHOOL OF DENMARK
Don’t underestimate really knowing your stuff, especially the tools. Work 100-hour weeks for almost nothing. Be at the right place at right time and have the right skill set and attitude. You need to be prepared to go for it.
JONATHAN WALES, CHIEF EXECUTIVE/RE-RECORDING MIXER, SATELLITE POST PRODUCTION
What’s more important is to learn how to mix with the software, not how to use a mixing controller. So it really contradicts the whole point of having a controller if it takes too much time learning how to use it. Everything has to be right there, intuitively accessible. I think that is what Pro Tools | S6 is all about.
SUNG CHEOL LIM, PROFESSOR AT WOOSONG COLLEGE
Our implementation of Avid technologies helps us to stay current and to offer the same cutting-edge technologies in our classrooms and studios.
LIZ TEUTSCH, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF ACADEMIC TECHNOLOGY AND ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR, BERKLEE COLLEGE OF MUSIC
It’s a wonderful suite of tools that are part of my workflow every day. For example, I was working on a plane making some last minute score changes for Stevie [Wonder] while in flight. By the time we landed I was ready to go. I’m grateful that Avid has produced products that allow me to be flexible and meet the varied requirements of my professional projects.
DR. ROBERT PALAZZO, DEAN OF THE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES, UAB
As far as the job market is concerned, there really is no second choice; there’s just one choice, period—learn Pro Tools.
