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

Color corrected and graded S-Log2 & S-Log3 footage captured with the Sony Alpha 7S II internally at 100Mbps (XAVC-S codec) in Ultra HD resolution (3840x2160). PLEASE NOTICE: The footage has been pushed to the limit on purpose to see how much grading the XAVC-S codec can handle. Due to the quality compression on YouTube more blocking / artifacts are visible than in the original footage!

Green-screen effects, also called “chroma-key effects,” allow us to easily insert a foreground actor, or any other object, into a different background. But, exactly, how do you do this? We’ve all seen “behind-the-scenes” footage of giant green-screen stages, with vast crews and big budgets. But, what if your means are more modest? That’s where this session can help.
