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

Touch Media - or something like that

...multimedia is a transitional term. It says that something is not 'itself' but a conglomeration of other things, and it is a played out slut of a term. A few weeks ago my colleague Mike Jones wrote a blog post champion...

Is 3D worth paying for?

July 18, 2013, 04:31 AM

http://www.meridianbooster.com/2013/07/17/3d-worth...

In the years following the release of his game-changing 3D epic Avatar, director James Cameron lamented the increasing trend of movies capitalizing on 3D technology just to make an extra five dollars with each movie ticket. As a prime example, he cited Piranha 3D, which featured a woman vomiting at the camera in 3D. Having seen that movie up close, I have to agree, that was an unnecessary use of the third dimension.

Logic Pro X dialog box refers to something FCPX do

July 17, 2013, 09:47 AM

http://www.fcptalent.com/logic-pro-x-dialog-box-re...

So after downloading the new Logic Pro X I attempted to send a project from FCPX using XML. The Result? A complete mess. There is no functionality for roles, the clips were incorrectly positioned and the analysis of files took a *long* time. It also seemed to be analysing files that were part of my (sizable) FCPX Event, but were not part of my project.

Two new plugins have been released that use the FxFactory plugin management system. Although they both do colour correction, they take a very different approach to how it's done.
