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

DaVinci Resolve allows this Mexican postproduction save time and money and focus on other tasks, a great help when deadlines are very short. Meanwhile, Blackmagic hardware Teranex contributes decisively to terminate any project on time.

Hayao Miyazaki Addresses Studio Ghibli's Future

Last year, animation genius and Studio Ghibli co-founder Hayao Miyazaki announced that he was retiring from filmmaking to focus on other projects, and we were sad. Then, a couple of months ago even sadder word came that Ghibli itself would be shutting down, which was later modified to “restructuring”. But according to Miyazaki himself, it could still be the end for the venerable animation studio.

Tascam DR-70D Audio Recorder Just I was preparing to buy a different Tascam audio recorder, namely the DR-60D, a new device has been introduced called the Tascam DR-70D Audio Recorder. Although the electronic specs for both devices are pretty much the same in terms of audio quality, there is a difference in the physical design of the Tascam DR-70D Audio Recorder that make it a better fit for my use. First of all, the overall dimensions of the unit have […] The post Tascam DR-70D Audio Rec...

Assistant editor helps assemble post-production pipeline including Adobe Creative Cloud As a child, Tyler Nelson liked to play with Legos. He enjoyed the process of building things, taking them apart, and building something new. Fast forward 20 years and Nelson is still constructing, but now he’s helping to create feature films instead of plastic brick structures. To him, the process isn’t that different—taking a huge amount of content and putting it together in a way that makes sense...

Review: Photon Pro for FCP X - Review

November 11, 2014, 08:07 PM

Noise reduction is something which, in an ideal world, we’d never use. But of course, that ideal world will remain forever out of reach, and our images will, from time to time, have a little too much grain. While some people actively search out film-style grain (see here for an example) the electronic noise which a camera produces when pushed too far is rarely pleasant. Photon Pro is a new plug-in for Final Cut Pro X that promises to take away that unpleasantness—so let’s see how it works.
