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

Imagine being able to take a picture of something with your mobile phone, and then through Adobe Creative Sync, send that image to Photoshop, convert it to a 3D model and then print it on a 3D printer. Wouldn’t that be incredible? And speaking of that, Adobe is also promising that in the future, you’ll be able to get rid of those pesky photobombs. That’s just a few of the bleeding edge features that Adobe has given us a peak of this week at Adobe MAX.

Surface Book vs. MacBook Pro 13

Microsoft is finally joining the laptop Thunderdome with the Surface Book, a high-performance machine with a detachable touchscreen. It faces its toughest competition in the form of the incredibly popular 13-inch MacBook Pro. Apple’s smallest high-performance option packs speed and storage into a thin, unibody chassis that’s well known around the computing community. Can the Surface Book overcome, or is it destined to be forgotten like so many Microsoft projects?
