Avid aint fuckin cheap!

[Barshki]

I know a lot of editors who have been out of college for a couple years and I don't know anyone who who gets paid like you suggest. Wait, I met some one this one time who got paid like that. The system works against you, and software companies actively take advantage of the public. $2,500 to buy Media composer for the first time? It's not worth that much by a long shot.

Forget about Avid and go Final Cut Pro. The only reason Avid exists is because union editors don't want to learn FCP and they want job security. Don't underestimate politics having a hand in Avid's iron grip in certain sectors of the film industry. There are mavericks out there though, like Walter Murch, The Cohen Bros. and David Fincher, who're embracing Final Cut Pro, because of its benefits.

[sclements75]

Yeah, if you're one of the 400 or so people in the entire world who get to edit a feature film each year. Otherwise, you'll be making about $250 per day (tops). Most likely you'll be making around $150 per day and you won't be using Avid - you'll be using Final Cut Pro.
