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

Vertical video is the future

In this video we discuss some of the video "rules" vertical video is said to break and why it’s nonsense. Claims that video must be horizontal are tied to how we have consumed video in the past. But people are shooting and consuming more video on their phones every day. Which means we are creating and comfortably watching more and more vertical video.

For folks who like to use film emulsion LUTs (look up tables), Koji Color has recently updated its product line with Koji Advance. Koji Color is a collaboration between Dale Grahn – the highly regarded film lab timer (the film equivalent of a colorist) behind many blockbusters – and plug-in developer Crumplepop.

SIGGRAPH 2015: Day 3 - From Domes to Dinosaurs

August 14, 2015, 05:53 AM

http://www.postmagazine.com/Post-Blog/2015/August/...

Today was an interesting day for some different reasons than the past two. I attended four talks, one of which was about a topic I knew very little about, and three others for movies I have not yet seen. I figured this would be a good opportunity to learn about something more obscure but interesting sounding, as well as see some behind the scenes work before enjoying the finished product for a change. My day began with a 9am panel called "Digital Domes: Theaters Without Borders."...

Cloud computing, forecast to become a $150 billion industry by the end of 2015, is not only growing, it is transforming almost every industry. And it could transform TV and broadcast media too. Although the cloud is increasingly being used to help companies distribute media to content delivery networks and social media, it’s not yet... Read More

Final Cut Pro X's speed and thus the benefits are gradually becoming recognised by editors in the industry. So on a new Retina MacBook Pro, how does Adobe's Premiere Pro match up to FCPX's performance, especially with 4K? Badly as Max Yuryev found out in his video. We are looking forward to the comments about this one!

So how do you take Peanuts, the comic strip and TV specials, and turn them into a CG animated feature?
