TRAINING DESCRIPTION

The most powerful, yet confusing, new feature in Final Cut Pro X, v.10.1, is media management. The new library, event, and project structure is a big change from earlier versions of Final Cut. This video tutorial takes you inside the application and gives you an in-depth look at how the new media management system works.

Join host, Larry Jordan, as he shows you how to update older projects, create new libraries and events, import media, and manage all your media, events and projects once you have them inside Final Cut Pro X. Also, if your projects involve collaboration, you need to hear his thoughts on how to share media between projects and editors.
