As the video editing industry shifts from perpetual licenses to business and subscription models, Avid has made some changes to their Perpetual Licensing plan. Effective August 30th, Avid Media Composer’s Perpetual License is set to increase from 25-33% for new licenses. Upgrade and Support Plan renewals will also increase ranges from 11-25%, depending on the level of support.

Getting started in post production is an extensive process, and it's difficult to know what machine you should be working with.  Particularly when you are working with advanced tools like Avid Media Composer.  If you are using the best tools in the world, you want them to run at absolute optimal conditions and performance.  

One of the most exciting features found in Avid’s Media Composer Ultimate is ScriptSync. ScriptSync allows editors to upload a virtual version of their script to their NLE, and click on lines to attach them to the clips they are associated with.

ScriptSync, PhraseFind and Symphony color correction are all part of the Avid Ultimate Subscription!
