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

Apple is over-thinking the Mac Pro

April 4, 2017, 12:23 PM

http://www.digitalrebellion.com/blog/posts/apple_i...

Today Apple announced they are rethinking the entire design of the Mac Pro after three years without an update. The current Mac Pro is an extremely impressive piece of design and engineering. Unfortunately the design was too clever and  over-engineered and it neither met customers' needs nor enabled Apple's ability to easily upgrade it. Apple issued an apology, which is extremely rare, and it's great to see they have recognized and taken ownership of the issue. It's almost unprecedent...

Apple Finally Announces True Pro Updates to Mac Pr

It has been a long time since Apple introduced a new Mac Pro. Over 1200 days ago, Phill Schiller introduced the “trash-can” design Mac Pro with the catchphrase “Can’t innovate my ass”. We have all been waiting for an upgrade to the aging and still expensive machines, and finally there is light at the end of the tunnel. In an unprecedented move, senior vice-president of Apple Phil Schiller invited a handful of journalists to reveal Apple’s future product plans, and Daring Fireball rep...

The Illusion of ‘Birdman:’ Hidden Edits

April 4, 2017, 12:22 PM

https://filmschoolrejects.com/birdman-cuts-9c98345...

One of the greatest tricks Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu has yet to play on audiences is the illusion that Birdman (OR: The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) is a single-take film. A cursory watch of the film will convince you that it is an uninterrupted narrative stream in which every actor always hits their mark and every millisecond of timing works out perfectly. In reality, though, while the shoot was built on extended sequences, like Hitchcock’s Rope, another purported single-take film, there...

This particular blog post really should be a letter to Apple CEO, Tim Cook. And maybe when I’m done writing it, I’ll decide to send it to him. Not that my opinion will make any difference.
