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

Dark Roast Post - My Favourite Chroma Key Plug

My favourite of all the Boris Continuum plug-ins for Avid Media Composer is the BCC Chroma Keyer. It somehow just "automagically" works. However in all truth, I would probably use the Avid keyer in a real world situation, because it is a real time plug. Then composite during the online. All depends on the scale of project.

Iceberg Alley and Secret Place represent the latest television commercial chapters in the Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism 'Find Yourself' campaign. A story that resonates with travellers seeking experiences that go far beyond the packaged, often cookie-cutter tourism offered elsewhere.

I noticed a thread on the Avid-L2 about file-based delivery, specifically in this case it was NBC wanting XDCAM file delivery (MXF 50Mb/s HD files) - Bourke from Videotoolshed offered some great information about using Avid's Export to Device function to get an XDCAM-format MXF file suitable for delivery. By providing an empty XDCAM folder...
