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

To find out, we asked School of Motion for one seat in their Design Bootcamp class, which we would award to a lucky student. In turn, that student would share an honest journal of their experience on Motionographer.

It is likely that the next major versions of common NLEs will support HDR. As editors we will be asked about the right HDR workflow. For now it is a matter of picking a standard, following some guidelines and maintaining metadata. Jan Ozer writes: HDR sounds complex, and at a technical level it is. Abstractly, however, it involves just five simple concepts. First, to acquire the expanded brightness and color palette needed for HDR display, you have to capture and maintain your video in ...

Steven Spielberg’s tense 1975 thriller Jaws has a lot to answer for. Not only did it help set the mold for the summer blockbuster, but it also secured the place of the great white shark as cinema’s greatest underwater nemesis.

Check out their work involving transforming ordinary locations into war torn Afghanistan on the Netflix exclusive War Machine starring Brad Pitt. Lots of set extensions, matte paintings, and turning ordinary jetliners into Air Force. The importance of VFX work that allows films to be shot wherever best fits the budgets.
