Extending the power of the proven, collaborative production tools the media and entertainment industry relies on daily, Avid NEXIS | EDGE enables editors to work from anywhere with the same media access, workflow, and user experience as if they were editing at the facility. And with the web client, team members can find, organize, storyboard, edit, and review content at the facility, at home, or on location, extending the limits of what’s possible.

Avid NEXIS | EDGE is now included with Media Composer | Enterprise subscriptions.


Edit from anywhere

Work remotely leveraging the known and trusted resources of your facility and get the same experience as editing in-house. And change location without changing your workflow—even when disconnected from the Internet.

Get easy access to your media

Edit wherever you go

Media Composer | Enterprise editors can leverage the unique proxy workflow, enabling you to switch between high-res and proxy right in the timeline. And go from facility to working remotely—with no relink or conform.

Disconnect without downtime

Work with anyone

Expand your distributed workforce worldwide to bring in the talent you want, no matter where they live. Media Composer | Enterprise and web client users can collaborate fully, while Adobe Premiere Pro users can leverage EDGE to browse and search for media.
