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

Helifilm.com is a premier supplier of aerial footage in Scandinavia, offering services to national and international film teams and providing access to an extensive image bank of high-quality Scandinavian content. Quality is the central reason we began to use Video Devices’ PIX-E5 recording monitor. The PIX-E5 is slightly smaller and lighter than the main competitor’s offering, which has proven to be helpful as our drone setup has evolved. The reason we wanted a recorder on the drone in the ...

Why ProRes encoding in post is inferior to recordi

May 25, 2016, 05:00 AM

Shooting in ProRes or DNxHD has several benefits if you’re working with Final Cut Pro X or Avid Media Composer. Of course you can always encode or transcode from a different codec to either of these in post-production, but that costs time — which may be valuable.

Top 5: Efficiency tips for your health and editing

May 24, 2016, 05:03 PM

http://postperspective.com/top-5-efficiency-tips-f...

By Brady Betzel Sometimes in the edit bay, I find myself feeling sluggish because I haven’t moved from my chair in four or eight or more. Usually, I can fix this by working out for a half hour before I leave for work, and I try to get in some kettlebell swings and battle rope maneuvers along with bodyweight stuff like push-ups and pull-ups.

How to fix video proxies in Resolve

May 24, 2016, 05:02 PM

http://clinttill.net/blog/how-to-fix-video-proxies...

In an earlier post I shared a video about a PremierePro CC to Davinci Resolve workflow; a workflow I adopted for my latest short film project Final Hit. The video gives an overview about how to use H.264 proxies to edit with inside of Premiere, then linking those proxies back to the original CinemaDNG files for color correction and grading inside of Resolve.
