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

Two inspiring and different approaches from two striking filmmakers — Guillermo Arriaga [screenwriter] and Bela Tarr [director].Virginia Aguirre E., from Autonomous University of Mexico State interviewed Guillermo Arriaga for La Colmena magazine in 2005.—¿El artista debe tener un compromiso ético o moral, Guillermo? —No. Básicamente tiene que haber un compromiso con contar la historia.[...]—Yo procuro no dar mensajes de ningún tipo. Yo procuro escribir una historia. Si las hist...

ReInventing Again

Been getting peppered with questions of late.  “Where have you been?”   “What’s going on?”  “Your Blog has been quiet lately.” That’s what happens when you’re re-inventing your business model….. again.    The key to a successful business is never being afraid of change.  What worked in the past was great, but that doesn’t mean […]

In the digital age, the idea that everything is free has brought genuine hardship to the music business in general and to composers most of all.

The day after the WWDC keynote, after I’d skimmed the Swift documentation, I learned from this post by Clark Goble and this tweet by Allen MacKenzie that Yosemite was going to have a new scripting language. Or maybe an old scripting language resurrected. Either way, JavaScript is going to take a spot alongside AppleScript as a way to script applications via Apple Events.

Amira Color Tool and your NLE

I was recently alerted to the new Amira Color Tool by Michael Phillips’ 24p blog. This is a lightweight ARRI software application designed to create custom in-camera looks for the Amira camera. You do this by creating custom color look-up tables (LUT). The Amira Color Tool is available as a free download from the ARRI […]

The Sights and Sounds of Cine Gear 2014 – Part I

Matt Jeppsen said it best in his Cine Gear 2013 Wrap Up… the reason folks like Cine Gear is because unlike NAB, it’s smaller, more intimate, and a lot more cine-focused. It’s a much different show, and the size of the event allows you to get a better handle on the...
