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

With a looming deadline and unending blue render bars, Charles knew he needed to move past Final Cut Classic and on to FCPX. Amazingly enough even though he had a huge job for an important client… he made the jump.

The lack of “a recognition of prior learning” is one of the disadvantages of using FCPX and yet, on Alister Robbie’s first FCPX just 3 days into his edit he found himself 4 days ahead of schedule. Alister has PLENTY to say and shares his virtually pre-release experience with Final Cut Pro 1.0 back in 1999 all the way to FCPX.

Horror films from a philosophical perspective. Yea, I bet you never thought of that. Producer, Directory, Writer Robert Rippberger is one of those truly deep thinkers and yet, also a true fan of the horror genre. His interesting views of Kubrick, the Cohen Brothers and Sam Raimi offer up a very interesting conversation that I bet you never would have thought you would hear on DCC.

Besides sharing some “Timeline KungFu” Richard and I also go off on a discussion about Grammar, and Internet decorum. We also go into some talk about Screenflow as a screen capture application. As well as the great debate about renaming your media in the Finder or not. We also share a product idea that some enterprising programmer could make for the FCPX community.
