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

The method specifies a set of rules for propagating the metadata between d...

This week's MacBreak Studio video shows how much more you can do in Final Cut Pro X 10.1.2 with media that is used in the current project and media not yet used in the current project. While it's great to be able to quickly filter browser clips in this way, the real power of this feature comes into play in the Filter HUD. This is the 102nd free Final Cut Pro X tutorial video from Mark Spencer and Steve Martin of Ripple Training. My YouTube list of all 102.

Adobe is about to release a few app explorations — very simple creative tools — that we’re putting together in the research labs here. The idea around these new Adobe Labs initiatives was to embed a small crew of entrepreneurs into our research labs, treat them like a start-up, and let them develop prototypes for products and explore new markets. More importantly, these products are an effort to probe different paths for disruptive innovation for the next generation of creative produc...

Our company like many others are adapting to a new world of technology enabled consumers who are doing more research and purchasing online than ever before. I created the media/communications benchmarking survey to see where other organizations are at in terms of size, structure, positions, and hopefully to get some indicator of what their future structures or growth areas might look like.
