Although the first 20 or so links take you to tips which are more directed towards migrants from Liquid, the subsequent tips are of a more general character and can be useful for newcomers migrating from any platform.

All clips can now be "streamed" from Avid's server!

Best regards

Douglas, u r amazing! Look what you have done in just 4 months- I hope someone smart at Avid will send you a big purple box to thank you on behalf of all the future customers that you are serving. I'm sure this is exactly what they hoped for when they pushed all this community family stuff and finally opened the forums up to user downloads. And by the way, your tutorial style is incredibly well-paced and graphically logical. Must've been all that Amiga that made you so sharp. Bravo.

Keep them comming Douglas!

Excellent work Douglas, couldn't someone make this a 'sticky' so that it is always easy to find?

Belated Happy New Year to everyone by the way.

Graham

Just to say that I added a new tutorial today (4th January)

Regards.
Douglas

Tutorial number 60 was added today ( 5th. January)

The title is still "50+ Tutorials" as Link01 and Link02 are not really Tutorials.

Regards,
Douglas

Douglas...

Firstly, I want to thank you for all the very useful tutorials and the work you put into them.

I've always struggled with AvidFX, as it's not an intuitive program. But, I'm beginning to get a glimmer of understanding watching your workflow. I've been particularly baffled by the stabilize filter. All the tutorials I've read deal with using track motion, but, not stabilizing. I seem incapable of making the leap to image stabilization. If you could post a tutorial on this subject, if you ever found the time to do one, I would be very greatful.

Thank you for the kind words, Cuervo

I'll take a look at the Image stabilasation as soon as I have the time.
It will be difficult for me to find some footage that needs stabilisation as I use the ultimate image stabiliser in almost all situations - the tripod!
I'll see what I can do.

In the meantime if anyone has any help on Cuervo's question - I would also be interested to hear it, as it would help me do the tutorial.

Any other requests for tutorials are welcome.

Regards,
Douglas

Hi Douglas finally made my way over. Can you or have you, or do you know of any training on working with effects. As you know its different in Liquid and I am trying to get a better understanding of how editing the effects work( key framing). I bought class on demand training but it didn't cover effects in that depth.

Awesome job! I just added your post and tutorial index to the Videoguys blog

Gary

While we all thank Douglas for his work we shouldn't post to this thread and all of the other posts must be deleted because after a while it won't be easy to find his tutorials.

He must be the only one who will update his turotials.

Thanks Douglas.

Hi,

The post is sticky at the top of the forum, and Douglas has been kind enough to update the list in the first post, including the date on which each tutorial was posted.  I think it'll be ok if people keep thanking him as they have been.

good luck,
Carl
