In Episode 38 of "Talking MEWShop," with Avid Artist Relations and Content Creator Michael Krulik, we explore the evolution of Avid Media Composer.

Michael also talks about advanced features like AI transcription, audio ducking, and customizable interfaces, all while maintaining the crucial human element of emotional storytelling. For over 25 years, Michael has worked with the Film, Television and Broadcast industries and has devoted most of his career to working with manufacturers of cutting-edge technology and evangelizing their tools. He works with the American Cinema Editors and has moderated several panels with top TV and Film editors at ACE's EditFestLA as well as presenting technologies at NAB, IBC, SuperMeet, SMPTE, DCS, LACPUG, HPA and other trade shows, seminars and industry events. And he not only works with editors, but he has even played one on TV; as the editor of the late Sydney Pollack in an episode of the TV show, Entourage Manhattan Edit Workshop is a New York Film Editing School offering a full range of basic to advanced training courses, from the Avid, Autodesk, Assimilate, Blackmagic and Apple products to the complete suite of Adobe applications. Manhattan Edit Workshop's mission is to provide the highest quality education for filmmakers and editors. Focusing on both the art and technology inherent to our craft. We foster a "learn by doing" approach in an atmosphere where mistakes are encouraged as part of the process and the only "silly" question is the one that isn't asked.
