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

I Don't Hate Stereoscopic Films
December 9, 2011, 03:46 PM

I continue to read a lot of negative opinion about stereoscopic filmmaking online, particularly within the postproduction community. Lots and lots, in fact. While I have no great love of stereoscopy for its own sake, I must say that there's a consistent criticism I read that makes no sense to me, either as a writer or as a postproduction professional. That criticism is that stereoscopy adds nothing to narrative, the implication being that it should be abandoned if it does not.

The topic of on-set dailies is a big one and I've been preparing a post on it for awhile but it's one of these things that the more you chew on it, the bigger it gets. For now, I'll just share a few thoughts on what I've been working with a lot lately, DaVinci Resolve Lite.

There are several reasons you might not be paid by a client (and most have little to do with a dissatisfied client, aggressive behavior, or conspiracy). Here are a few practical strategies I employ at my office.
John Carr - Using AdobeCS5
December 9, 2011, 08:13 AM
http://notesonvideo.blogspot.com/2011/12/john-carr...
Today, John Carr gave a free online webinar "How Adobe Production Premium CS 5.5 handled the cutting edge demands of Vincent Laforet's short film Mobius." For those that don't know, this film was shot using the Canon C300, so I tuned in as much for that, as to find out the details of how he was using Adobe Production Premium.
