One of the most
influential events I've ever attended was Avid's
Master Editor Workshop series. But it appears that
the workshop has gone the way of Umatic tape
machines. The replacement? A new event called
the Editors
Retreat. This is truly a
retreat, in that editors come to live together and
learn (did I mention the living part happens in
South Beach in January). The event runs for 5 days
and 4 nights, and is open to approximately 75
qualified applicants. The Retreat’s focus
focusses on high-end technical sessions and
‘the world behind the timeline’
– the creativity and the craft of the
editor. Other classes delve into the business side
as well. Its a great learning opportunity and
worth checking out.
