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

If you’re looking for an affordable and easy way to get a terrific film look, from film stock to color and grain, FilmConvert is an ideal plug-in every editor should consider purchasing (and it supports quite a few popular NLEs). You simply drop the filter onto your footage, select your camera profile, how it was filmed, the film stock you’d like, and it’ll look great. But you can do some serious color grading in the Camera Controls, and still end up with a terrific film look for your proj...

What Is Krush? With its bit crushing and downsampling algorithms, Krush combines the crispy taste of the digital realm with the warmth of its drive stage and analog modelled resonant filters. A modulation section allows you to quickly add extra life to the sound by modulating any parameter.

As the appetite for content grows (and film and television productions continue to send creative teams all over the world to shoot), the ability to get all creatives in one place at one time to collaborate becomes more challenging and more expensive. But it doesn't have to be, thanks to a new collaborative tool: Evercast.

We already have a pretty good idea of what animated shorts are competing in the upcoming Academy Award race for Best Animated Short — the list is here — but with 70-plus films to choose from, the big question is which of the shorts stand out from the pack in terms of artistic and creative excellence.

Everyone needs to add some footstep sound design to their video and film projects at some point. Adding foley sound effects can bring more convincing realism to your work, and using sound design effectively can help you guide your audience’s attention and enhance certain aspects of your scene.

I’m the last person to tell you that Premiere Pro is better than Final Cut Pro (or the other way around) as I’m on Windows and have never used Final Cut Pro. But this video is not about which NLE is the best. I just want to address the topic of the magnetic timeline.
