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

Recently, Pixar story artist Emma Coats tweeted a series of tips for story development and screenwriting, and they are profound. Tip 8 is something that every filmmaker should know and practice: "Finish your story, let go even if it's not perfect. In an ideal world you have both, but move on. Do better next time." Here are a few others that I like...

If you're hard drives haven't melted from the record heat as of yet then it's probably a good idea to back them up.

http://library.creativecow.net/devis_andrew/Premie...
In this tutorial, Andrew Devis shows how to use the Luma Curve to achieve very similar results to the Luma Corrector.Both these effects will produce good results for both brightness and contrast although it could be said that the Luma Curve will give some better visual feedback for those who like visual feedback for what they are doing.

VLC 2.0.2's headlining update is support for Retina Displays (yay!). However, the laundry list of features, updates, and fixes seem monstrous—especially for a ".o.2" release. The download link is here, and the full list of updates follows.

CS6 Techniques: 58 Import Image Sequences
July 1, 2012, 10:52 AM
http://library.creativecow.net/devis_andrew/Premie...
In this tutorial, Andrew Devis shows how to import an image sequence into Premiere Pro and also how to help Premiere get the interpretation of the image sequence correct. Particularly with non-square pixel images Premiere will make assumptions that mean the footage will not display properly.
CS6 Techniques: 59 Color 12: Luma Corrector
July 1, 2012, 10:51 AM
http://library.creativecow.net/devis_andrew/Premie...
In this tutorial, Andrew Devis shows how to use the Luma Corrector to change the brightness and contrast of your shot without flattening the shot. The temptation is to use the 'Brightness and Contrast' effect in Premiere Pro which is a very old effect and shouldn't really be used as it tends to squash or reduce the luma range of a shot thus lowing its quality over all.
