Film & Video Editing Program (Previously known as Avid Professional Program)
Becoming a skilled Avid or Final Cut Pro editor is a challenge. All-around skills are highly respected in the entertainment industry. That's why we developed the Film & Video Editing Program.

Avid's Media and Film Composers are the standard tools for professional film and video post production throughout the world. The boundless capabilities of Avid have no parallel in the editing world. Nearly every major motion picture and prime-time TV show is edited on Avid.
Video Symphony's Film & Video Editing Program and Avid Career Program encompass technical skills, aesthetics and workflow knowledge. Video Symphony's Film & Video Editing Programs move students from having no knowledge to advanced industry-level expertise in Avid and Final Cut Pro editing in about one year.
Video Symphony's's Editing Programs provide the immeasurable value of real-life experience in a workplace environment through client projects that students work on. Hundreds of our graduates have launched from Video Symphony's classrooms into paid jobs in post production for feature films, TV, commercials and myriad other video productions.
