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

While we all love the creative side of our work, a recurring thought on the mind of an independent audio engineer is money and how to make more of it. The simplest way to up your game is to work faster by quickening your setup and turnaround times between songs and sessions. Another way is to watermark your work with metadata so you can prove your participation in a project as it travels toward the consumer. It all comes down to documentation and by using two simple, and free plug-ins – namely...

Dive into Pro Quality Audio in Premiere

February 28, 2018, 01:40 PM

https://nofilmschool.com/2018/02/premiere-pro-prof...

Filmmaking is thought of primarily as a visual medium, but sound and audio play a pivotal role in truly bringing those visuals to life. If you're an editor, you most likely understand the frustrations of trying to work with both of these components simultaneously in a way that is not only efficient but effective at giving you more room to create. Adobe addresses this in a big way by integrating the powerful controls of Audition, its flagship digital audio workstation, right into Premiere Pro wit...

How does linking work in Multi Mono Plug Ins

February 27, 2018, 06:49 AM

https://www.pro-tools-expert.com/home-page/2018/2/...

Community member Trond Nedberg sent in a question, which we touched on in Podcast 307 and promised to explore in a separate article. Trond asked about how the linking in Pro Tools actually works when using multi-mono instances of plug-ins especially with regard to plug-ins with side-chains as it appears that Avid is using parameter linking rather than side-chain linking. Over to you Trond...
