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

On June 26, the first Bay Area SuperMeetUp is taking place at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose. Held in association with Future Media Concepts and the FCP X Creative Summit, the Bay Area SuperMeetUp will feature, among other things, a keynote by Randy Ubillos, former chief architect of Final Cut Pro. This all seems pretty cool, so we decided to reach out to the event’s architects to find out more about this SuperMeetUp and the other events they hold all over the world. The follow...

Here's my take on the announcements at the Apple Worldwide Developer's Conference 2015. OS X El Capitan First came details on the next version of OS X, named El Capitan. El Capitan is one of the mountains in the Yosemite National Park in California. This naming is smiliar to how OS X Mountain Lion came after OS X Lion and OS X Snow Leopard came after OS X Leopard. It signals that this update isn't as big from users point of view. OS X Mountain Lion, Snow Leopard and El Capitan have less...

Apple Music, Metal for Mac OS Pro Apps and plenty more at WWDC15. This was a sprawling, diffuse keynote that, if nothing else, helped illustrate how Steve Jobs’ famously focused company has evolved to compete on so many different fronts, even if the product line would still fit on a single table.

There was a time when Apple's World Wide Developers Conference got no media coverage apart from dedicated Apple news websites. Now the annual event from the Moscone Centre gets airtime on national news. So what was announced that is relevant to Final Cut Pro X and editors?

I saw an interesting music video today from Bjork - another 360° ‘VR’ video, which prompted me to find out how to greate 360° motion graphics using Final Cut Pro X. If you view this video with the Chrome browser on YouTube, you can drag within the video to look around - left and right, up and down: Use the cog settings control to increase the resolution to 2160p-4K. I made this video by scaling a still equirectangular panorama down to 4320x2160 and importing it into a new 25p Fin...
