AVID CONNECT – Avid® (Nasdaq: AVID) and
the Academy Color Encoding System (ACES) team announced today that
Avid has joined the ACES Logo Program as the first Product Partner
in the new Editorial Finishing product category. Avid, creator of
the Media Composer® nonlinear editing system, will be working to
implement ACES in conformance with logo program specifications for
consistency and quality to provide its customers and users with a
high quality ACES-color managed video creation workflow. As the
global standard for color management, digital image interchange and
archiving, all ACES users benefit from the growing family of ACES
Logo’d products.
Avid and ACES made their announcement at Connect 2019 (April
6-7, Las Vegas), the sixth annual conference of the global Avid
Customer Association, the preeminent community of media technology
users across film, television, music and live sound. Today, Avid
also unveiled the all-new Media Composer 2019, which has been
redesigned and reimagined for today’s—and tomorrow’s—generation of
media makers.
“Avid is thrilled to let our Media Composer users everywhere
know that we’re aligned with ACES to deliver an ACES-ready
editorial workflow,” said Dave Colantuoni, Vice President of
Product Management at Avid. “We’re very proud to promote the ACES
specifications as the first partner for the Editorial Finishing
category, which fully recognizes the specialized requirements of
the editorial community.”
“We’re pleased to welcome Avid to the ACES logo program,” said
Andy Maltz, Managing Director of the Academy’s Science and
Technology Council. “Avid’s participation not only benefits editors
that need their editing systems to accurately manage color, but
also the broader ACES end-user community through expanded adoption
of ACES standards and best practices.”
As the newest ACES Logo Program Partner, Avid joins other
leading providers of media technology including cinema cameras,
color correctors, monitors, on-set tools, and animation and
