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

If you have a script, you can import it into Media Composer. With the script imported, it is then possible to link specific shots and takes to exact portions of the script. This is similar in appearance to a traditionally marked-up script from a script supervisor. Actually, you or an assistant editor can use those...

Televisual Production Technology Survey 2014: Edit

August 21, 2014, 08:55 AM

http://alex4d.com/notes/item/televisual-production...

As part of a survey of '100 senior production staff' Televisual asked about what post-production software they use.   Great news for Avid. Who will step up? Although this looks like bad news for Final Cut Pro X fans, I'm surprised it is used by ten of those surveyed.  …the FCPX upgrade which alienated many users. “We always edited FCP until Apple produced a useless upgrade version,” says one indie head of production.  Respondents score FCPX poorly in terms of workflow, s...

Photo: Beaulawrence License: Creative Commons There’s something special about going to a five-star restaurant. The atmosphere. The anticipation. The way every bite of food lights up your taste buds. But the experience isn’t worth much without stellar customer support. A restaurant could have the best food in town, but it won’t stay in business long if its wait staff is inattentive to customers’ needs. Many businesses are unwittingly delivering a similar letdown ...
