To The Aotg.com Community,

It is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer be updating Aotg.com. Back in 2007, when we started, there was a lack of access to information about film, television, and commercial editing. We wanted to fix that by creating a central location for content about editing to be stored.

Since then, we've watched the amount of content about editing on the internet grow exponentially. We've also watched social media tools come and go with that growth. Does anyone remember Google Wave!? These social media tools changed how people access and search for media and information. People tend to turn to Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram for their news and information, and those are all great tools to promote your sites, but as a site that aggregates links to other sites for users, it just doesn't work for us.

We will keep the site live but archive the ability to add links and comments. We will keep our database live with the links for those who desire to use it to search for editing information and research.

Our podcast, The Cutting Room, will move over to the Filmmakeru.com website and will continue to be a place for interviews with editors and other film professionals.

Everyone who worked for Aotg.com loved what we created and are proud that we could help so many editors find content that spoke to them.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the various post events worldwide in the coming years!

Yours truly,
Gordon Burkell
Aotg.com Founder

NAB 2015 Working Together

When I was just starting out in the video production industry around the beginning of this century, there was an overwhelming sense to me of a workflow being shoving a square peg into a round hole. The facilities I interned inside or toured were relying on hardware with very specific requirements...and a lot of it didn't really work as expected.

Artistic Color Correction

I recently watched 'It Follows'. I found it to be an artistic, scary, surreal film. The film starts with a drab, washed out, 80s palette. As the film continues, the color, and use of it evolves, adding another layer of narrative to the story. The writer/director behind the film, David Robert Mitchell, said that the film was inspired by a recurring dream, and this is definitely evident in the approach with color. Certain sequences also utilise darkness very well.

Final Cut Pro X 10.2: New Masks – The Final Cut

May 3, 2015, 01:40 PM

The new mask capabilities of FCPX in 10.2 were immediately a godsend: the video I was working on at the time immediately benefitted, and in that respect it was as helpful as the arrival of Libraries in 10.1. (Ripple Training have a great overview of the new masking features.)
