News Summary:

On September 16, 2026, Avid and Google Cloud expanded their strategic partnership to deliver browser-based Media Composer and agentic creative workflows, building on the new Chrome-based Avid Media Composer video editing and conversational media search developed with Google Cloud’s Gemini Enterprise. Previously, on September 15, the companies announced the initial expansion of their strategic partnership, introducing a browser-based version of Media Composer, Avid’s flagship video editing platform, and an upgraded Avid Content Core, its content data platform. This initiative involves embedding Google Cloud’s Gemini Enterprise and BigQuery directly into Avid’s post-production environment, alongside media-specific AI agents and Avid tools, to remove physical hardware constraints, reduce administrative friction, enable remote collaboration, and automate repetitive tasks. Earlier, on September 14, Avid and FilmLight announced a strategic partnership to integrate Baselight color processing directly into Avid Media Composer. This initiative aims to streamline color work by moving beyond traditional plug-in handoffs, helping post-production teams maintain consistent creative intent from dailies to final delivery.
