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

iMac Upgrades are Great for Post

When Apple quietly updated the iMac with new, speedier Intel Haswell processors and faster PCI-e flash storage, plus 802.11ac WiFi, it was met with little interest. But this speed bump is of great advantage to video editors using Final Cut Pro X, Lightworks, Premiere Pro CC and more iMacpostpost productionUpgradeApple

YouTube have published 150 tracks online that you can freely download, cut to and then upload back to YouTube. Is this the start of YouTube providing more free assets for the video editor?

24-25 fps in the digital age

There's still a fair bit of confusion in the minds of professionals who work in cinema about this '24-25thing'. By cinema, I mean movies that get made for showing in theatres. And this confusion is deep amongst sound recordists and sound engineers. And to a smaller extent, with VFX and DI 'artists'.

At Biscardi Creative we’ve completely switched over to the Creative Cloud for our primary workstations and we absolutely LOVE IT.   The other day we ran into an unexpected “gotcha” when we fired up our Dell PC Workstation which is still running CS6 on a Perpetual License.

Backups for Final Cut Pro Review

http://finalcutbasix.com/2013/10/02/backups-for-fi...

The importance of backing up projects cannot be overstated. Imagine working on a video for several days, weeks, or even months without backing up. Then one day, the hard drive you were working from stops working, or the computer crashes, or the editing project becomes corrupted. Without having a backup, you’re most likely screwed. That […]

UPDATED 8/18 WITH A CAVEAT. For some reason we’ve been snake bit during our last two attempts to use the AJA KiPro on location as a record device.   We’ve had corrupted Quicktime files on very long records.   On the previous project we were able to repair the file easily using Disk Repair but […]

I have always preferred to use Mac products because of its reliability, just like most print and photo shops do.
