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

Shocking Discovery with FCPX "No complex timelines

Complex is the key word…FCPX does not handle complex timelines, in other words if like me you edit a 53m program on a single timeline with greenscreen, graphics and plugins it’s only time before you will eventually break the final straw on the camels back, rendering your project less than useless.

Lumix GH3 Firmware Update Wish List

July 22, 2013, 05:24 AM

http://www.packafoma.com/blog/2013/07/21/panasonic...

I recently purchased the Panasonic Lumix GH3. I was considering the Blackmagic Pocket Camera, but I ended up choosing the GH3 for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that it’s actually shipping (even overnight!). Although I intend to use the GH3 primarily for video, I also like the 16 MP RAW still capabilities and the ability to shoot 60 frames-per-second at full 1080p HD.

Turbulent Noise is one of the most versatile effects in After Effects and I used it a lot recently to create the human iris. It’s an important effect to know, so for Experiment 7 we’re going to focus on Turbulent Noise with CC Toner for colorisation.
