Monica Daniel, Adam Bedford, Michael Kammes and Al Mooney as they will attempt to answer all of your questions and solve all of your problems concerning FCS and FCPX, Avid, Premiere Pro and anything else you can think of.

And there is a LOT of them. Edit video faster and more fluidly. Brand-new features include an integrated color grading pipeline with Adobe SpeedGrade CC, expanded native format support, improved multicam editing, and more.
