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

Home studios today are somewhat limited in gear, especially when it comes to microphone selection. That means that many of the tracks end up getting recorded by the same mic sometimes, which isn’t ideal when it comes to fitting mix elements into the mix. Choosing the right microphone for the job can be a crucial decision when it comes to not only a good recording, but having the element fit into the mix later.

This category typically correlates to best picture but as we’ve seen with past winners like “Birdman,” that’s not always the case. Plenty of usual suspects in the mix like Kirk Baxter and the still unrewarded Tariq Anwar. There have been only four women who have won this category in the last 20 years and (for the moment) Chloe Zhao looks to be the best shot but there are six more months to go.

Sound designer Jamey Scott takes you behind the sound of Raised by Wolves here, including his approach to sound design as sonic art — how he started from scratch with original sounds, used a sampler to shape the planet’s winds, designed delicate UI sounds, crafted Mother’s array of sounds (from morphing to flying to weaponizing), + much more:

Are you inadvertently clipping your exports from Resolve? I wrote an article about this a while ago, Solutions to Resolve 4: Full data and video levels in DaVinci Resolve – don’t clip your proxies and transcodes. It turns out that this is not the end of the story.
