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

These two plugins are similar but different. They both do the work of the internal tools within Final Cut Pro X, however both sets of developers say that their products do a much better job. Better keying with Hawaiki Keyer 3 and better stabilisation with BetterStabilizer from CrumplePop.

Julian Teo – Here’s all the shots I animated during my 12 week internship at Pixar Animation Studios. Huge thanks to my mentors Michal Makarewicz, Tal Shwarzman, Jae Hyung Kim and to my fellow interns for a truly amazing Summer.

As the year continues, many of these posts will be philosophical in nature. Some will be in contradiction to previous postings. These are not intended as truths or assertions, they’re merely thoughts…ideas. Think of this as stream of consciousness over a wide span… For many years I was guilty of believing that, and I’m not […]

A few months ago I did a post on a ‘History of Disney Owls‘ and it is one of my favorite posts. For a girl who normally does opinion pieces it was fun to do something creative and different. So I have been trying to think of what would be a good follow-up and finally landed on bears. Disney has had a rich tradition of bears, even having a movie called Brother Bear. Some bears have been humorous like Baloo in The Jungle Book and others have been fierce and scary like in Fox and the Hound.

Last year, I managed to build the worst ever Voice Over dialog pipeline. What started from good intentions and the drive to be organized, slowly deteriorated into an epic mess of versioning issues and inconsistencies between English text, localization and in-game text. It was, by every sense of the word, a failure. The Backstory When I […]

The way marketers work currently sits on the verge of enormous change. Like a tidal wave cresting over the horizon, there’s no escaping the inevitable, but unlike the tidal wave, there’s no need to panic. At DAZE Sydney 2016, we will be exploring how the correct foresight and preparation will enable us to embrace this change, working smarter and possibly living happier as a result. It seems plain that we should be prepared for a world where a considerable increase in flexibility and var...
