Manhattan Edit Workshop Goes Back to the Future - MovieMaker Magazine

In the Six-Week Intensive Course at Manhattan Edit Workshop (Mewshop), students learn how to use editing software like Final Cut Pro and Avid.

But the school also emphasizes the importance of editing history and theory, ensuring that students know how, when and why to use the tools they have been taught. After all, editors who achieve success in the industry must understand the art of editing as well as which keys to press on a computer. The school’s Artists in Residence program hammers home this point by bringing editors to screen and discuss their work, sharing with students the lessons they’ve learned throughout their own careers.

Q & A With MEWShop Owner Josh Apter - Production Hub

Hands-on, instructor-led certified training classes are the most efficient way to learn editing. I was a self-taught Avid and FCP editor for years and felt very comfortable with the machinery. It wasn't until I finally took my certified training to become an instructor that I saw what I was missing! I was shocked at the huge gaps in my knowledge. I'm a faster and better editor for having learned the software in a certified training environment, and I've seen the same results in countless MEW Shop students.

Post Production's Art School

In 2002, Josh Apter was a freelance Avid editor who also had a few private training clients on the side, a couple of whom were keen on learning Final Cut Pro.  "There was always this notion in my head that knowing both programs was going to be an important thing for an editor," he recalls.  Apter guessed correctly, for today, Manhattan Edit Workshop (MEW) is thriving as both an Apple authorized training center and an Avid authorized education center, and has just built out its new 2,600-square-foot headquarters at 80 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
