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

Video compression makes our media files small enough that they can be stored and viewed on the web. Sounds easy – but, it isn’t. For most of us, the process is confusing and the results disappointing. That’s where this week’s webinar can help.

In all our discussions in the past on audio over IP we have identified the need for some simple units that just had a mic preamp and a headphones amp. Our friends at Aspen Media pointed out the DELEC NIO-02024 and its little brother the DELEC DIO which we have covered on the site. Since then we have wanted to review both units to see if they would meet the requirements for adding a simple mic preamp and headphone in a voiceover booth with nothing more than an Ethernet connection.
