Geared toward video editors who are new to Sony Vegas or to this latest version, Vegas 6 Essential Training teaches the fundamentals of how to work with Sony’s award-winning video editing application. Instructor Thomas Sherer identifies the main elements of the interface and explains how to work with different media files, then moves on to more advanced topics, including essential editing techniques, applying effects and correcting color, and working with high definition video and surround sound audio. Exercise files accompany this tutorial.
“Instructor Thomas Sherer has been using Sony Vegas in his professional work and classroom teaching since version 3. His passion for this tool, and his deep experience with the product, shine throughout this training,” says Lynda Weinman, CEO of lynda.com.
Videomaker Magazine calls this latest version of Vegas a “high roller,” stating that the application has “far more features than we can discuss in this review; more than we could fit in a single issue of this magazine.” Vegas 6 also won Videomaker Magazine’s award for Best Advanced Editing Software of the Year. Computer Arts magazine rated Vegas 6 four and a half out of five stars, asserting that “Sony Vegas 6 is one of the best value PC video editors around, giving much more expensive products a good run for their money.”
