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

Review: NewTek TriCaster 410

March 20, 2014, 03:08 PM

https://www.videoguys.com/Blog/E/Review+NewTek+Tri...

When Dan Parker, an events technical specialist with NewTek, pulled the TriCaster 410 out of its shipping box to set up for our demo session, I was sort of underwhelmed. The backplane on this one-rack-unit (1RU) device was rather spartan. With only four 3G SDI inputs, capable of offering either quad SDI or HD-SDI inputs, by all appearance it seemed a bit limited for the $9,995 price.

Optimity Advisers, who count a number of DAM luminaries among their staff (including, David Lipsey and John Horodyski) have recently published a whitepaper Metadata Matters. They have decided to call them ‘Orange Papers’, presumably because everyone else uses ‘Whitepaper’ and their logo is orange too (fortunately the text is not on an orange background). The document is written by John Horodyski and covers a number of areas within the wider metadata subject...

The brief was simple, push the new Mac Pro and FCPX to the limit. Never mind 4k or 8K, we went large on everything until things broke. Alex Gollner and Peter Wiggins perform the ultimate stress test.
