Avid has released its first video editing application for the iPad - Avid Studio. This iPad app for video editing offers frame-by-frame editing accuracy and access to all kinds of media. Avid Studio for iPad allows users to begin editing with ease by offering access to any videos, photos and audio already in their iPad library, or media that can be imported from iTunes, cameras and more. Users can then arrange clips in the Storyboard, make precision edits using the Timeline, and enhance their movie creations with high-quality transitions, effects and a soundtrack. They can then share movies directly to YouTube, Facebook or export projects to Avid Studio software.

"More and more users are relying on mobile devices for media content creation, viewing and sharing, and we're proud to deliver a feature-rich new app that takes powerful Avid technology and adapts it specifically for the iPad. Now, video editors have a great, powerful and fun way to create movies and tell their stories. Editing enthusiasts can now use a mobile application that has our industry-leading video editing technology built into it with the interactive capabilities of iOS to help them make incredible movies at home or on the go," said Tanguy Leborgne, Vice- President, Creative Enthusiasts Products and Solutions, Avid.

"As a content producer, I can tell you that a video editing app like Avid Studio for the iPad is a breakthrough. Avid is the industry leader in the field of editing. Being creative and having trust in your tools is essential. Whether you are new to video editing and animating a series of family photos or a seasoned professional working on a music video for the 'next big thing', having a robust editing tool in the mobile environment is a must. The technology is here and the time has come with Avid Studio for the iPad," said Michael Dixon, Founder, Stormnet Media.
