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

"Having been a user of Avid's software for almost two decades, I was skeptical of a single internal card's ability to deliver in place of a larger breakout box. It also just so happened that my first project with the Bluefish444 card, "Now or Never", involved 10+ tracks of effects involving various formats at various frame rates, which could cause serious problems with even the most expensive of video hardware. The Bluefish444 card delivered as promised and made me a true-believer."

My new free Final Cut Pro X transition slices the outgoing clip into two parts and pulls them apart with a horizontal ribbon appearing based on the pixels at the slice position.

A short history of editing

February 13, 2013, 08:25 AM

http://www.redsharknews.com/post/item/429-a-short-...

The first ever edits were made accidentally, by cameraman stopping and starting early hand-cranked film cameras. Gradually it was realised that these “cuts” could be used to join shots together to tell a story, and the movies were born.
