Avid Xpress Pro Effects and Color Correction, W/DVD

Producing high-quality graphic effects and consistent, correct color can be daunting tasks, even for experienced video editors, but they're critical to the success of your Avid Xpress Pro project. This handy DVD/book combo from the experts at Avid focuses on these key operations, from designing effects, to adding graphics, to adjusting colors in your final video. Step-by-step instructions and hands-on exercises guide you through restoring the original look of each shot, achieving shot-to-shot consistency, and creating a final look and style. Along the way, you'll be introduced to Avid's NaturalMatch and AutoCorrect technologies, which make all this possible. By the time you've completed all the exercises, you should be able to use scopes to analyze images, adjust color for your entire project, and ensure that light and color levels are within broadcast limits.
