“There are no prerequisites. It’s always a thrill for me when I get an email from a student who has completed the course telling me they’ve found their first job in the industry. And, I’m pleased to say, I get a lot of these emails!”
Rebecca Edwards, online editor and AFTRS tutor, brings a wealth of post-production expertise into our courses, strongly focusing on developing Avid skills for efficient workflows. We sat with her to learn from her career in post-production and understand how AFTRS avid short courses meet specific industry needs.
"The TV and film industry can seem like a closed off world to people who aren’t in it, so teaching offers me a chance to share all my tips, tricks, and secrets to enable students to understand what they can do to break in and find enjoyable work."
Avid is the most widely used editing software in long form and television in Australia because of its media workflow capabilities, ability to work on multi-user projects, and integration with other finishing software.
