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

An Interview With The Great Eddie Kramer

http://bobbyowsinski.blogspot.ca/2014/12/an-interv...

Unquestionably, one of the most renowned and well-respected producer/engineers in all of rock history, Eddie Kramer’s credits list is indeed staggering. From rock icons such as Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Kiss, Traffic and The Kinks, to pop stars Sammy Davis Jr. and Petula Clark, as well as the seminal rock movie Woodstock, Eddie is clearly responsible for recording some of the most enjoyable and influential music ever made.

REVIEW: IZOTOPE RX4

http://videoandfilmmaker.com/wp/index.php/reviews/...

If you go back a few years, the major names in noise reduction were Sonic Solutions and Cedar. But the price of admission was up there, often north of $5000 and stayed there for years. There were always a few cheaper options from Waves and the like, but none seemed to ‘cut through the noise’ until iZotope debuted its RX suite.

Intervju: Saša Krieger Ristić, character artist

December 2, 2014, 03:42 PM

http://vfxserbia.com/2014/12/02/intervju-sasa-krie...

Rođen sam u Brčkom 1981. godine, živim i radim u Beogradu. Od malena sam pokazivao interesovanje za crtanje, a posebno za sferu stripa. Sa 3D-om sam se susreo prvi put na jednom forumu, kada sam video neverovatne kreacije umetnika Rafaela Grasetija, Marca di Luce i Mihai Darange; istraživao sam i saznao za program ZBrush koji je u to doba bio tek u povoju. Program koji radi na principu digitalnog vajanja, koji ne sputava kreativnost komplikovanim opcijama, dugmićima i ostalim me je oduševi...
