Media Composer 2019
IBC marks the European debut of Media Composer 2019, Avid's flagship video editing system reimagined for today's and tomorrow's generation of media makers. Aspiring and professional editors, freelancers, and journalists can work more creatively through a new user experience, next-generation Avid media engine with distributed processing, finishing and delivering capabilities and support for 8K, 16K and HDR, and a customizable role-based user interface for large teams. With Media Composer 2019, an editor can go from first cut to delivery without ever leaving the application.
At IBC, Avid will preview a host of forthcoming Media Composer features and updates, including:
New controls for Media Composer | Enterprise administrators to configure Media Composer's UI and secure media with lock down capabilities based on a user's role

Avid will showcase MediaCentral | Editorial Management, which boasts an enriched media management toolset that includes browser-based editing, storyboarding, phonetic media search, and project management capabilities. Through a powerful yet simple workflow, completely integrated with Media Composer and Avid NEXIS storage, content creators can accelerate the entire post-production workflow, quickly browsing, searching, logging, and organizing multicamera footage from anywhere.

MediaCentral takes a leap forward with MediaCentral 2019, the industry's most comprehensive, next-generation media workflow platform for TV news, sports and enterprise media management operations.
