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

Mastering Terminal To Hack Your Mac [Feature] Read

February 9, 2013, 05:13 PM

Terminal app can be daunting at first, but it’s really the best way to hack into your Mac’s configurations and preferences to customize things to work for you rather than against you. With the right Terminal commands, you can tweak the Finder, mess with the user interface, build a more private and secure Mac, and even enable features that aren’t officially supported on older Macs.

4K Has More Challenges Than Cost

February 6, 2013, 03:45 PM

http://news.doddleme.com/equipment/4k-has-more-cha...

In the music world, unless they have “golden ears,” most people can’t really tell the difference between so called “lossless” quality and your garden variety MP3. 4K has a similar challenge, in that most viewers won’t see the difference between 1080p and Ultra HD (UHD), unless they have a screen so large that they’d have to mortgage the house to afford. That’s the result of a recent study of viewers comparing both formats. And it could be a more difficult issue to deal with than ...

FCPX, Premiere Pro, Vegas Pro, or a Cloud Editor?

So, you need to edit and produce some video for business use. Maybe for posting clips to a website, maybe for uploading to YouTube or to your online video platform (OVP). But you’re the designated video producer and are looking for the best professional software editor to buy and get started.
