Use Cases and Deployment Scope

As a composer in the entertainment industry, I often have to create videos for promotional content, for clients, and as a regular part of marketing. Also, as a content creator myself, and in a previous position in the Story Department working on the show Braxton Family Values," I've found over and over that Media Composer is not only the most implemented but the best tool for video editing.

Pros

  • Easy to organize files
  • Quick learning curve
  • Reasonably priced
  • Great for a company with multiple editors working on the same show

Cons

  • A faster update track

I've cut my own video content on Media Composer, and also worked on a network television show with it - it performed excellently in both situations. The bins are a great way to find and store content and the timeline is easy to understand. In my experience, crashes were few and far between (although they're a part of the job no matter what DAW you're using).
