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

Getting the Most Out of Film School

Six months later he’s living above a garage in Culver City, working as a day player wielding a boom mic when he’s lucky, and sweating over how to divide the $75 he’ll make today between rent, ramen and student debt that’s half the size of the production budget. The salt in the kid’s wound? The guy working the camera is his age but skipped film school and now has four more years of industry experience.

There is a Media Composer ingesting bin choice, and I thought I should discuss what I am noticing with timecode frame counting assignment for an Avid Media Composer video track as timecode metadata displayed through-out the Media Composer user-interface.

DaVinci Resolve 12 is an exciting release for Blackmagic Design. The software is now a full blown editing and color grading platform.

Everybody knows the next release of the the Mac operating system will be called El Capitan. But how many people have heard of the DLC that comes with it? What is it, what does it do and how will it affect editors?

Now available from Blackmagic support page: the first public beta of the next big release of DaVinci Resolve. Version 12 adds many timeline editing features.

Final Cut-related features included in the long read me for Resolve 12 Studio: VST and AU Audio Plugin Support Support for FCPX XML 1.5 DTD roundtrip Support for multicam and audio layout for FCPX XML roundtrip Med...

Maya’s Image Planes are a powerful tool: by using reference images directly in the Maya viewport, 3D modelers can create much more realistic and dynamic models, more quickly, in Maya!
