Founded in 1995, the Avid Toronto Users' Group (ATUG) is an organization of film & video editors, managers, Avid engineers and Avid system owners. Students enrolled in a Television or Media Arts program who are studying Avid Editing or have graduated from such a program within the last 12 months are welcome to join as non-voting members. Meetings are held on a regular basis and feature various topics ranging from editing techniques to software/hardware improvements, as well as Avid service and support issues. Members are encouraged to promote themselves, their skills and their companies through networking forums and casual socializing before and after meetings.

The group is non-profit and volunteer run. The meetings are usually sponsored by various Toronto companies associated with Avid products. Meetings are open to all members in good standing or qualified guests. All topics discussed at ATUG meetings will be directly related to Avid Editing Software and Avid Post-Production Products including 3rd party software and applications which can be used in an Avid editing environment. Meeting content is private and will not be video or audio recorded or redistributed in any way. The group is committed to keeping an up-to-date membership website which will have minutes from each meeting, upcoming meeting notices and other relevant information.

The current elected 'executive committee' is Richard Vala (President) and Kevin Bonnar (Vice-President). Here's how to contact them.
