What's curious to me is the deafening silence from Avid. Instead of "cutting the story off at its knees", Avid is letting this thing take a life of its own. If I am Kelli Callaghan, I would be on these forums as fast as possible to explain the ACA and Avid Connect in detail and put an end to the speculation. We may not like what the ACA

This is really sad. Keli, I think you guys really need to go back and rethink this entire thing.

Instead you have chosen to create some sort of "club"

I found out a bit more. The $500 is to attend the Avid Connect event at NAB in the spring. It looks like the association annual fee is $150.

Would love to see this in MC. Being able to do this in FCPX in addition to the Audition feature is a significant workflow enhancement.

Kenton - I agree. Any NLE and a knowledge of After Effects seem to be a good recipe for steady employment. I think Adobe realizes this and is rushing to make Premiere better and better and work even closer with the AE workflow.
