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

Adobe SpeedGrade CS6 is a color grading software program that used to cost upwards of USD20,000 when it was sold as a professional stand-alone package from Iridas. But following that company's purchase by Adobe, SpeedGrade is now included with the CS6 Production Premium, Master Collection, and Creative Cloud bundles, or sold separately for USD999.

If you've been reading this site for the past few months, you know we’ve talked a tremendous amount about a little company called Blackmagic Design who happens to make a little camera called the Cinema Camera. There's no question the specs are interesting, (and preorders are flying out the door) because there has never been a camera at the USD3,000 price point that could give ProRes, DNxHD, and RAW all in one camera body.

In this lesson, Kevin P McAuliffe picks up right where he left off in part 1, and shows you how to log clips for batch capturing, and then gets in and shows you the capture settings you're going to want to know, to get your footage into Media Composer as quickly as possible. He also shows you that all the capture settings are not necessarily in your "Capture Settings" setting.

The origin of SpeedGrade can be traced back to a playback application called FrameCycler, which was first release by IRIDAS in 2001. FrameCycler provided uncompressed playback of frame sequences and was widely adopted in the visual effects community where artists needed an easy way to check their work.

As a kid living in San Francisco I fondly remember combing through the Main Library card catalog in search of books on electronics and telephone systems. Of course, "analog cards" are not computer friendly so starting in 1995 library associations initiated the mother of all metadata standards to replace the basic card.
