Well maybe it’s not THAT cool, but when’s the last time you saw an editing software showdown? Umm probably never!

Here are the details…

Have you ever wondered – How does my editing software stack up? Am I on the right track? Do you struggle to discern the respective strengths of Liquid, Premiere, Vegas, Edius and FCP?

On Monday, October 20th, 7:30 PM at the Holiday Inn/Dedham, just outside of Boston, the National Professional Videographer’s Association of New England will host an Editing Software Showdown, sponsored by Avid, Adobe, Sony, Thomson/Grass Valley.
