Review: Learn the Avid - I have been editing over 30 years and first read a Steve Cohen book on the Avid back in the 90's when I had to switch from other editing systems to the Avid, which since then has come to dominate the world of Hollywood feature and television editing. At the time (90's), although I had already taken Avid training classes, I found his book invaluable with little tricks and tips. Now, since Avid has come out with new software updates - nearly every 6 months it seems (!) I decided to get Steve's book to make sure I was caught up on everything new. I admit that I am experienced on the Avid, even owned one for 4 years and work on it everyday on primetime television, nonetheless, there were a few tips and tricks in this current book that I didn't know so this new purchase was worthwhile. For the newcomer or student trying to learn Avid, I think this book will show you how do to everything! It's not overly wordy, gets right to the point, showing photo's on every page taken from the Avid display and explaining all the features. Highly recommend if you want to learn Avid. If you want to learn assistant editing, this book will not answer all your questions. Review: Great manual for Avid written by experienced Avid user. Concise and down to the point. - Great book. Very concise, everything down to the point, great information that is not easy to get somewhere. For example I googled how I can change the thumbnail of a clip other than JKL-ing it. I didn't find any usable answers online, but the book has it. Apparently you can open the clip in viewer, find a frame you want, mark an In-point, go to the bin and with this clip selected press Q (jump to Mark-In). Boom. For my workflow this is a time saver. I would totally recommend this book for anyone working in Avid, especially for a person like myself who is transitioning after 8 years of working in Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro CC. Immensely helpful. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008PGMA9K | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #402,196 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #57 in Video Direction & Production (Kindle Store) #84 in Movie & Video Direction & Production #284 in Video Direction & Production (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (47) | | Edition | 3rd | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 14.0 MB | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 412 pages | | Publication date | July 25, 2012 | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Not Enabled | ## Images ![Avid Agility: Working Faster and More Intuitively with Avid Media Composer, Third Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712iy9tf2WL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Learn the Avid *by P***M on September 24, 2012* I have been editing over 30 years and first read a Steve Cohen book on the Avid back in the 90's when I had to switch from other editing systems to the Avid, which since then has come to dominate the world of Hollywood feature and television editing.

Concise and down to the point. *by A***Y on November 22, 2016* Great book. Very concise, everything down to the point, great information that is not easy to get somewhere. For example I googled how I can change the thumbnail of a clip other than JKL-ing it. I didn't find any usable answers online, but the book has it. Apparently you can open the clip in viewer, find a frame you want, mark an In-point, go to the bin and with this clip selected press Q (jump to Mark-In). Boom. For my workflow this is a time saver.

Immensely helpful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for continuing your training on Avid *by P***E on February 13, 2016* I appreciate that industry leaders like Steve Cohen share their wisdom and knowledge with us. This is another fine example of that. I'm learning Avid after many years on other systems, especially Legacy FCP. This book gives lots of tips and tricks that other training (which went through the essentials to getting started) didn't go through. It's already helped significantly shorten the learning curve for me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/162898369-avid-agility-working-faster-and-more-intuitively-with-avid-media](https://www.desertcart.us/products/162898369-avid-agility-working-faster-and-more-intuitively-with-avid-media) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
