Editing
I had been using Avid Studio, but it crashes under Windows 8. There is now no mention of Avid Studio on the Avid.com support site, so I scrambled for alternatives. The workflow for this video turned out to:
Technical
Cameras: Nikon D4 and Nikon D800
Lighting: Lowell Tungsten and Broncolor modeling lights
Support: Acratech Video Adapter, Opteka Shoulder Stock, Miller Fluid head.

I had been using Avid Studio, but it crashes under Windows 8. There is now no mention of Avid Studio on the Avid.com support site, so I scrambled for alternatives. The workflow for this video turned out to:
- Organize, trim and color correct clips in Lightroom 4, then export to a working folder.
- Assemble the music and clips in Photoshop CS6 and exported to a full HD file. This approach is actually effective and straightforward, delivering a fairly polished rough cut.
- End titles added with Cyberlink PowerDirector Ultimate 11. The interface is similar to Avid, but it is stable and much faster.
- Cyberlink uploaded the web optimized video to Vimeo and YouTube.
