Compose the Embedded Metadata - Reel Name for Reso

May 13, 2016, 05:05 AM

Avid Media Composer when outputting the AAF takes the populated metadata in the "Tape" column and uses this for the "Reel Name" at the Edit Index Events in Resolve. This might be a bit tricky to observe, Resolve uses Dynamic "Reel Names" with linked media clips. Dynamic Reel Names means, if the Media Pool clips are reconformed (actively linked, seeing video in the Resolve Timeline) in the Edit Index Events, then updating the "Reel Name" for the the clip in the Media Pool should ripple to the "Re...

Things seemed to have gotten better for Avid, as the headlines moved more towards their cloud based integration and less about the company’s financial woes. Even as early as NAB, it seemed that the video editing company had gotten its mojo back. But with the recent resignation of CFO John Frederick, a disappointing quarter of bookings, and a disparate restructuring plan put in place, the news is bad. Really bad. And the company is hemorrhaging cash like crazy. Could this the end?

It’s hard enough to find a great job in video production, even with the best resume. Up to 90% of all US employers, including all the major motion picture and TV studios, use a computerized ATS (applicant tracking system) to screen resumes.

Hiring executives then spend as little as 6 to 10 seconds scanning each resume to select the best five candidates. Those individuals are contacted for phone intervi...
