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

IBC Blog: reference monitors

By Tim Spitzer When I finally visited Sony in the elusive Hall 12 at the RAI Convention Center in Amsterdam during IBC, I was glad I did! Sony introduced the first ergonomically sensible 4K camera called the PXW-FS7. The name might not seduce you, but it’s a beautiful looking and operating camera to fall in […]The post IBC Blog: reference monitors appeared first on postPerspective - Randi Altman's postPerspective.

The animated short that won Wes Ball the job direc

Tomorrow sees the release of The Maze Runner, director Wes Ball’s adaptation of James Dashner’s popular YA novel. It’s Ball’s debut as a feature filmmaker, and a job he won thanks to his 2011 animated short film “Ruin,” which he made while taking a mini-hiatus from his commercial effects company. There’s almost no plot to “Ruin.” Set in a post-apocalyptic future—in an abandoned city where vegetation has overtaken the skyscrapers—the film begins with a masked ravager pushing...

The #1 Way to Become More Confident

Malcolm Gladwell talks about the 10,000 Hours Rule and that it takes around that amount of time until you become an expert at what you do. Just by putting in the hours, you will naturally become more confident because you’ve been doing it.

Werner Herzog on Creativity

September 18, 2014, 09:33 AM

http://www.brainpickings.org/2014/08/18/werner-her...

Werner Herzog is celebrated as one of the most influential and innovative filmmakers of our time, but his ascent to acclaim was far from a straight trajectory from privilege to power. Abandoned by his father at an early age, Herzog survived a WWII bombing that demolished the house next door to his childhood home and was raised by a single mother in near-poverty

4K Ready? 4K Now! One of the things that was most noticeable about IBC2014 was that 4K is now very much a part of the mainstream. That’s not to say there wasn’t still room for debate, though. ibc2014HitachiSonyVFX4K

Data Management & Procedure Best Practices

http://masteringfilm.com/data-management-procedure...

Data Management In principle, data management sounds simple: you download the camera media, put it on a hard drive and back it up. In reality, it is a process fraught with danger and rife with chances to mess up badly. Handling the recorded media is an enormous responsibility; a single click can erase an entire...
