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

San Francisco based 4K Studios are using Blackmagic Design gear to scan old 35mm Film prints to bring old Kung-Fu movies to the world's first all 4K Ultra HD streaming network. Roundhouse kicks, mis-matched dialogue dubs, and Kung-Fu style snap zooms straight out of the 70s never looked so good.

A perspective few understood regarding the colorization of black and white classic feature films. The critics of colorization never realized they were contributing to the deterioration and inevitable loss of much of our black and white American film heritage. Barry Sandrew, Ph.D.

DaVinci Resolve performance improvement in 3 steps

DaVinci Resolve performance improvement in 3 steps As a TV and film editor, I knew I hadn’t truly lived until I discovered the creative benefits of color grading. Not everyone who chooses to become an editor dares to dive into this aspect of editing. However, with all the expensive hardware and software available to do this task, the easiest one to get started with today is DaVinci Resolve. But DaVinci Resolve performance can suffer once this free (lite version) software is […] The pos...

Color Grading - Exodus: Gods and Kings

The transition to digital wasn't difficult for Nakamura. "I had been color correcting film to video in telecine, which is a film to video transfer, for over a decade. And then I'm doing a digital intermediate, which is color correcting scanned film. Even in the rudimentary days of the digital video revolution, we still made the images look filmic. It's much easier today, but even back then, we would create our own look-up tables and color correct it so it looks like a log-ish image."

The isolated color look is a unique color grading look used to great effect in movies like Pleasantville and Sin City. It involves keeping one or several colors intact while completely or partially desaturating the rest of the image. Let's jump into a one-color color in DaVinci Resolve. The post The Isolated Color Look in DaVinci Resolve appeared first on The Beat: A Blog by PremiumBeat.

SpeedLooks 4 Studio Log LUT Set, A Closer Look

The frame grabs illustrating this article are my first round of tests so that my client and I can start narrowing down the looks we want. We will be shooting with just the one camera, my Panasonic GH4, but it will be under a variety of natural and enhanced lighting conditions indoors and outdoors. Once we have chosen a subset of looks from these examples, I will shoot more footage under that range of lighting for further refinements in my approach.
