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

Is Creativity Overrated?

May 19, 2017, 12:23 PM

http://www.creativitypost.com/business/is_creativi...

I must be honest with you. While I don't mind a good passionate discussion well just about any topic, I don't really like to argue with articles, or more accurately with their authors. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I like to see and hear whoever it is I talk with. But there are times when I can't just read an article and leave it as is.

Review - Smart Selector for Adobe After Effects

May 18, 2017, 01:00 PM

This new plugin called Smart Selector claims to solve one of the age old issues with After Effects: selecting layers from the viewer. I take a look at how it works by using a few comps, and of course the point was to try and break it.

The Basics Of A TV Production Schedule

May 18, 2017, 05:04 AM

https://productionhero.co/blog/the-basics-of-a-tv-...

Is it really accurate to talk about production when the theme is TV? For production, it smells of fixed procedures, known milestones, and defined requirements - while TV is being developed according to a plan that is constantly changing as one learns from its TV production.
