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

(Burbank, California--July 9, 2014) We’ve all heard the cliché “fix it in post” while working on a project, but what often is not given enough thought is who will fix it in post? Choosing the right post-production facility to finish your project is something every independent filmmaker should take into careful consideration before production even begins. Finding a trusted partner who can work with you from concept to finish and has a genuine interest in making sure your project looks and ...
Cameo Video Editing App Upgrades
July 9, 2014, 12:10 PM
http://www.hypebot.com/hypebot/2014/07/cameo-mobil...
Cameo is a mobile video editing app that has some nice features well-designed for editing videos on a smartphone. Earlier this year they were acquired by Vimeo in what seems like a nice match. Today they released a new iOS app featuring an upgraded soundtrack feature as well as music promotions within the app. The potential for promoting music by getting a bunch of videomakers to use it in their clips seems powerful. But I can't help but be captured by the fact that Cameo has the potential to be...

From October 1 2014, nearly all UK broadcasters will only accept TV programmes as files - tapes will not be allowed. To help independent TV production companies prepare for 'File Delivery Day,' the UK Digital Production Partnership have agreed on standards for everyone to follow. As well as a guide for producers, there is a full technical specification for post production workflow as well as a minimum metadata set. An important aspect of the technical standard is for those who like to us...

Drobo's venerable 4-bay array gains USB 3.0, speed

Drobo's products have come a long way over the years. The company started with a 4-bay BeyondRAID array with a FireWire connection that was sold in one form or another for quite a few years, and has expanded the product line with everything from the mini (with 2.5" drives, Thunderbolt and USB) to the rack-mounted B1200i (12 bays and quad gigabit Ethernet ports). Now Drobo has updated the original 4-bay array (US$349.99) with USB 3.0, so let's see how this box of storage works.
