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

Missing Final Cut Pro X plugins when moving projec

Andreas Kiel, the XML expert who makes many useful film production tools has written a useful primer on Final Cut Pro X plugin locations. Read this as a first step in understanding why even though you have two Macs with the same plugins installed, when you move a project from one computer to another you sometimes get the following image in your viewer: Part of the problem is that even though a plugin appears in the browser of both installations of Final Cut Pro X, if it isn't in the sa...

Final Cut Pro X Virtual User Group - 15 August 201

August 12, 2014, 04:39 AM

http://alex4d.com/notes/item/final-cut-pro-x-virtu...

In June 2014, Alex Lindsay of Pixel Corps hosted the first Final Cut Pro X Virtual User Group. It was a live internet broadcast that featured Steve Martin, Mark Spencer, Sam Mestman and Michael Garber. Using a very clever setup, all in-studio hosts sat around a table - each having a monitor and mouse that controlled the same copy of Final Cut Pro X running on a Mac. Each person had their own camera which could pull out for wider shots. Everyone sitting around teh same table made eyelines be...
