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

Mac Pro CPU performance comparison

The new Mac Pro was speculated to be released alongside the new OS X Mavericks on the 10th September, but unfortunately we’ll have to wait a bit longer (though it should be out by the end of this month). As you may have heard, the new Mac Pro will be powered by a single CPU and two GPUs. We don’t know how fast this monster is going to be, but a small hint has been suggested by digitalartsonline.co.uk.

Four days before IBC my Lumix GH3 arrived, as usual my wife and dogs became test subjects and I was blown away by quality of the 1080 50p pictures, this camera was better than my previous AF101 without the bulk and weight.

Traditionally you would export an OMF file but OMF export is no longer supported as it was in FCP7. This is one of the things that has changed in FCPX that is not for the better and still needs to be addressed.

For many years home viewing television audiences have been frustrated by the loudness of the commercials.  No matter how loud or soft the prior program was, the commercials always seemed to pop in louder - much louder.  In the US it seems that the Congress (don’t worry, no...

Marketing Lessons from IBC

September 15, 2013, 08:18 AM

http://www.philiphodgetts.com/2013/09/marketing-le...

When you are designing your marketing messaging, you need to clearly communicate the benefit (or even the service/product you’re providing) to those who have no idea what you do. In light of what I’ve observed on the exhibition floor at IBC, I may even need to reconsider our own “Taking the boring out of post” […]
