Podcasts about Avid Technology

The man who invented nonlinear editing is not done disrupting filmmaking. Bill Warner, founder of Avid Technology and the engineer behind the tool that unlocked the indie film revolution of the 1990s, has spent the last several years pushing a new idea at Lightcraft: a CAD system for movies, built to take a filmmaker from first idea to final pixel without ever losing control to the technology along the way. If Avid gave editors the freedom to try things, Lightcraft is designed to give everyone on a production the freedom to stop asking permission. Chris and Daniel get deep into Bill's full origin story, from a spinal injury at 18 that he describes as the thing that set him free, to building a whistle-controlled device for a paralyzed roommate that eventually landed in the inventor's hall of fame, to getting into MIT with grades that had no business getting him there, to the moment in a video editing suite in 1987 when he decided he was going to build Avid because no one else had done it yet. Along the way, Bill lays out exactly what Lightcraft's Spark Story is designed to do, why he thinks prompting your way to a movie is a fantasy that will drive people insane, and why the goal is not AI that makes the movie but AI that says, "You're the boss of me."   Links and References Bill Warner on LinkedIn >  Lightcraft / Spark Story > Avid Wikipedia > USD (Universal Scene Description) >    This episode is sponsored by: Center Grid Virtual Studio Kitbash 3D (Use promocode "CGGarage" for 10% off)

What happens when AI moves beyond experimentation and becomes part of the creative process itself? At Google Cloud Next in Las Vegas, I sat down with Albert Lai to explore how AI is transforming the media and entertainment industry from content creation and production to personalization, localization, and audience engagement. Albert works across Google Cloud, Google, and the wider Alphabet ecosystem to help media organizations rethink how they create and distribute content using cloud infrastructure, multimodal AI, and agentic workflows. And one thing became very clear in this conversation, the industry has moved beyond asking "What if?" and is now firmly focused on production-scale execution and measurable business outcomes. We discuss why media companies are fighting a growing battle for audience attention, and how AI is helping them create content more efficiently while also unlocking the value hidden inside vast archives of existing material. Albert explains why the conversation has shifted from simply producing more content to maximizing what already exists, and how AI is helping organizations rediscover and reimagine decades of footage, audio, and intellectual property. The conversation also explores one of the biggest themes emerging at both Google Cloud Next and NAB Show, the rise of agentic AI workflows. Albert shares how media companies are using orchestrated AI systems to streamline complex production processes, support editors and creators inside existing workflows, and improve everything from localization and dubbing to monetization and personalization. We also dive into real-world examples, including how companies like Avid Technology are integrating Google AI directly into production environments, and how Indonesian media company MTech used Google Cloud AI tools to create and distribute a 26-episode animated series with measurable improvements in production speed, cost efficiency, and audience engagement. This is not a conversation about replacing creativity. It is about augmenting it. If you work in media, content, streaming, sports, publishing, or simply want to understand how AI is changing storytelling itself, this episode is packed with practical insight and real-world examples. How will AI change the stories we create, and the way audiences experience them?

S5E06: Training Talk  The role of post production supervisors in film and television production is receiving a boost through new micro-certifications, crucial to smoothing the way a project moves from preparation to delivery. The certifications are a joint approach from Avid and the organization Post Super, whose founder is the latest guest on the Making the Media Podcast. Gemma Nicholson says there has been a clear gap in the market for training people in the role to be better prepared for the challenges they face. Our Guest this Episode:   Gemma Nicholson   Gemma Nicholson is one of the co-founders of Post Super alongside her sister. The inspiration behind this was a desire to create a platform that post management could tap into for community, information, training, and tools. Post Super is a personal passion project for Gemma, who had spent over 22 years in post production. Gaining a wealth of experience from working on prestigious and diverse projects, such as multiple Harry Potter films and massive high-end episodic television productions like Netflix's The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Gemma was first a sound editor, then a successful post coordinator and supervisor, and it was through her experiences as the latter that she came to fully understand the frustrations and needs of the post management community. Gemma gets excited about the information and training part of Post Super, and she runs multiple courses on post supervision for the NFTS, ScreenSkills, and has recently partnered with Avid Technology to create Avid Post Super Micro-Certifications.   More Resources For more on this topic, check out Avid and Post Super Courses– Get the information on the latest courses available What's New in Pro Tools– Discover the updates in the world's leading DAW What's New in Media Composer – From transcription to Titler+, find out the cool features Contact Us Questions?

*listeners: please fill out this short 3-min. survey to help me level up the show: https://forms.gle/iporNXSgtfuoHSPJA Guys, you're gonna love this episode. I finally got to bring on Pete Lorenco (VP of Marketing at Alyce) to join me on the show. I'm a big fan and you'll soon be too. Prior to Alyce, Pete was VP of Marketing at Avid Technology (a public company) and several other enterprise companies including Iron Mountain and EMC (prior to their acquisition by Dell). Alyce was founded in 2015, has 174 people and is based out of Boston, MA. They've raised Series B funding ($46M total). Alyce provides a better way to do outbound B2B marketing by transforming from transactional touch-points to delivering personal experiences using gifting, swag, and direct mail. Here's what we hit on: I had Dan Frohnen (former CMO at Sendoso) on the show, Episode 16, and we talked about gifting. There are other players in the space, how do you compete; How does gifting work effectively within the buyer journey; Some people will not agree with our POV and why that's a good thing; How is outbound broken today, and what should we do about it; Why certain goals matter in order to create an experience people will love, and what those goals should be; At Alyce you're sourcing 70% of total new logo pipeline & revenue from inbound marketing - what's your 2022 marketing plan; What channels are you leaning into; How're you setting up effective ABM at Alyce, from your target list of accounts to winning deals; What are your top marketing challenges; What are the last 1-2 really good, creative marketing ideas you/your team has come up with. You can reach Pete on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/peter-lorenco Find out more about Alyce: www.alyce.com For more content, subscribe to Modern Startup Marketing on Apple or Spotify or wherever you like to listen, and don't forget to leave a review! People call me (Anna) the Marie Kondo of startup marketing because I help VC backed early stage startups clean up their marketing mess to uncover more joy (and revenue). For those startups that have already built their marketing foundation and have been testing different marketing plays but just aren't satisfied with the traction they're seeing, I created the Marketing Audit + Roadmap offering. At the end of your audit, you'll get a custom Roadmap with improvement opportunities for the next 3-6 months. So that you can finally put the missing pieces in place to start seeing more traction and stop spending time and money on the wrong things.

They offer advice on how best to show up for your loved ones as they go through their brain injury recovery journey. Do you have some tips we missed for supporting brain injury survivors?

It's not a game of who creates the most content. VIP experiences are content that tap into client's senses and emotions - Visualize, Interact, Personalize. "There is no "I" in content. But there is in inspire, influence, impact, and income.This means to center your content on your clients and customers and not just on your company. Then you can inspire, influence, and impact them to make decisions they feel good about and in your favor." —  Deb Monfette Click this link to receive Deb's free gift, “5 Places to Dig for Stories About Your Company”: irresistiblecontent.com/leadmagnet Connect with Deb Monfette:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deb.monfette/Private Facebook Group Invitation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/irresistiblecontentinfluencersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/irresistible_content/LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/dmonfette/Website: https://irresistiblecontent.com/Email: Deb@irresistiblecontent.com ]CONNECT WITH CHABIDAYE:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chabidaye.ramnath.3Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leadandlift/Website: https://leadandlift.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chabidayejaglalramnath/ Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
