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

This is an excerpt from a profile that was originally published in INSPIRE magazine. Read the full post. The path to success as a type designer isn’t easy. An aspiring type designer must walk the line between artist and technician, have business savvy, and carry a crystal ball to boot. Making fonts that look good and work well for print and screen takes time, talent, and an infinite amount of patience. Good type designers are fascinated with letterforms. Some fall in love when they take...

Every day after school, my youngest daughter (age 11) comes into my office to watch me cut A HAUNTING. She does this in the guise of “I’m going to do homework out here while watching you edit.”  Although she does end up paying more attention to what I’m doing and asking about what I’m doing [...]

Blackmagic announces Video Assist recorder/monitor

May 3, 2015, 01:40 PM

http://provideocoalition.com/blackmagic-announces-...

At NAB in Las Vegas, Blackmagic announced its new Video Assist monitor/recorder. Blackmagic’s new device is clearly aimed to be a modern version of their own HyperDeck Shuttle 2, and to compete with Átomos’s Ninja/Samurai and SoundDevices‘/VideoDevices’ Pix recorders (which I have covered previously). Unfortunately, Blackmagic’s Video Assist team initially forgot a critical feature that solves a problem that Átomos, NewTek, and VideoDevices tackled years ago.
