Re: Edit Assistant, I was learning FCP7...

Some of it you learn from your peers. I've been editing on Avid for 11 years now and I'm always learning some new shortcut or trick.

A little you learn from good books. I'm a fan of the Avid Handbook: Advanced Editing Techniques. Teaches everything you need to know about decomposing, multi-groups, etc.

Mostly, I just ended up cutting a ton of stuff on it. Best teacher there is.

My personality is such that when something doesn't work quickly or easily, or efficiently enough, I'm willing to slow down and figure out if there's a better/different approach. If there's one piece of advice I could give about learning any NLE, it's to NOT edit a certain way because it's the way you've always done it.
