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

Bright and colorful, fast paced and rambunctious, “Birds of Prey” (and the “Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn”) embraced the cartoon origins of its titular character, Harley Quinn. This 2020 film starring Margot Robbie earned praise for its fun style, which started with the opening title sequence. The titles use stylized hand-drawn illustrations that hint [...]Read More...

RAW Workflows and Compression, what are we trying to achieve?

September 13, 2021, 08:43 AM

https://www.redsharknews.com/raw-workflows-and-com...

Replay: There was a time when “raw” meant a recording of the unaltered brightness values from a sensor.  It tended to mean “uncompressed” too, although even by 2002 there was already compressed raw in the guise of CineForm.  Now, there are lots of choices for both compressed and uncompressed raw recording, and a lot of people trying to push the idea that any kind of raw represents a huge technical challenge.

Amplifying Editing

I frequently get asked if I think there will ever be AI “Automated Editing.” It’s somewhat of a moot point, as there is already a whole lot of automated editing going on! It’s been going on for a long time. In an April 2016 blog post I wrote of four automated editing tools already in […] The post Amplifying Editing first appeared on The present and future of post production business and technology.
