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

By now, pretty much everybody has seen and social media'd last week's epic Saturday Night Live sketch, The Beygency. It was a potent jab at the almost suffocating unanimity of Beyoncé-fandom, and what happens when one man--episode host Andrew Garfield--dares to be lukewarm on Queen Bey. As viewers watched the sleek sci-fi parody unfold, though, what they didn't see is just how much work goes into making a film of that caliber in less than a week and editing it for airing on national television.

Digital Anarchy has developed a plugin called Flicker Free. Working with FCP, Premiere Pro and After Effects (among others) it very effectively removes flicker from time lapses, slow motion and refresh rate phasing (LED lighting and monitor screens).

Half a year after the first “Maison Quérigut” work, I returned to Le pays du Donezan for a second approach. In the beginning, talking with Gil about this series of videos, we accorded to make them seasonal. But when I saw the result of the first one I realized that the following one should be different. Very different. I soon opted to drive it towards documentary field where I feel confident. I had the need to tell something apart from taking good pictures. I needed to tell a little story.

Want to log on set on an iOS device or in a browser and then have all the keywords imported into Final Cut Pro X ready to edit? The Lumberjack System is a clever and quick way of first logging and then getting all that data into FCPX.

By Ron DiCesare When USB microphones were first introduced, it reminded me of when MP3s first came out. I thought it was just another case of convenience over quality. The first few USB mics I came across were great at offering a simple and direct way to record into your computer, but they suffered in […]The post Showdown: USB versus standard XLR mics appeared first on postPerspective - Randi Altman's postPerspective.
