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

Last week, Macworld Senior Editor Roman Loyola and I arrived at Apple bright and early for a briefing about the latest generation of iMacs -- the same four 2011 iMac models we reviewed earlier this week. That iMac unveiling gave us the chance to see the new Thunderbolt connection technology in action.

An Accidental Artist

I recently saw an interview with French motion designer Pierre Magnol where he modestly described his work as often a 'happy accident'. We think you'll agree that Pierre’s work is in a league of its own with a stunning organic feel. We asked Pierre how Red Giant Software fits in with his experimental style.

I'm lazy and you should be lazy too

Way, way, way, waywayway, way back in the day when I first started using Avid I didn't know what I was doing. (Obviously) I was lucky if I remembered to turn on both monitors because I just wasn't used to this editing monstrosity. Since then, thank goodness, my skills have improved. I always turn on [...]

If you weren't at NAB 2011 then you probably haven't seen all the features of the soon-to-be-released DaVinci Resolve 8 in action. There were quite a few videos right from the NAB show floor (and here is one more) but this official video from Blackmagic Design does a good job of highlighting those features new to version 8, including stabilization, the multilayer timeline and XML export to and from Final Cut Pro.
