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

The latest update for Final Cut Pro X is now available, and as it sometimes happens with software new versions, it might be wide to take some precautions before going for it. It may also be wise to postpone the update slightly, or try updating on one machine only.

Video editing is more than just sticking different scenes together – it’s an art. Whether you’re creating a Hollywood masterpiece or a home video, the challenge is to take raw footage and transform it into something compelling and watchable, within the limitations of your equipment and budget that is. Sounds impossible? Well, here are some [...]

When Stephen Gray got in contact with us saying he had edited a short test film in RED 4K on Final Cut Pro X 10.1 and uploaded it to YouTube in 4K, we were impressed. FCP 10.1 was less than 24 hours old!

The end of last week, an officer of Women in Animation as for stats regarding how many women were working in cartoonland. I told her the guild didn't have extensive documentation, but gave her what we'd been able to track here, here and here.

Making window dubs of timecoded media in Final Cut Pro X can be a bit tricky. Most people think you can only burn in the timecode of the Project or the Compound Clip, however, there is a bit of a trick that will allow you to burn in the code from the media if you know what to do. Here is the secret.
