I haven’t taken any of the fxphd courses but I have seen a couple of them and heard many praises for the classes and quality of instruction they provide. The new term has just begun and you can view the different courses offered as well as check out the preview video. One particular course of interest to Editblog readers is the course Avid for Indie Film and Commercials. Final Cut Pro classes seem to be a dime a dozen these days so a good Avid course is worth noting. The class is taught by friend of the Editblog John Flowers from LIfeZero, That Media Show and That Post Show. John has been working (more) exclusively on Avid of late and will be a great teacher.

In this course, we cover the new Avid Media Composer 3 software, available on both Mac and Windows platforms, with a focus on Independent filmmaking and new media projects. In the first few courses, we take you from Final Cut – the standard tool for most Independent Filmmakers – into Avid – the standard in Hollywood. We will focus on the similarities and differences, with many, many examples.
