Hi everybody -
I'm finding that shows I work on now are asking for more and more graphics, even in 'reality' and documentary. During a run of FCP jobs a few years ago, I got Kevin Monahan's 'Motion Graphics in FCP' book, and was able to get a lot out of it I could immediately put to work. Enough so that often I was able to build everything a show needed without sending anything out to After Effects.
I'd like to feel as capable in front of a stock Media Composer install as I did on an FCP install. I have started using Boris Composite to get my transfer modes, which helps a lot, but I still feel like I'm fighting with the system to build what I want to build.
Are there books to recommend? A specific set of classes on Lynda.com?
To be clear, I am cutting shows for A&E already; I am not looking for an explanation of keyframes, but to get from intermediate to advanced.
Thanks all...

PS - I got my copy of Avid Agility this weekend, and I actually did learn a good bit about key frames!
