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

This works just like it does in any other filter once you get to the right place. You can easily use keyframes in the Color Corrector 3-Way filter in Final Cut, provided you set an initial keyframe first.

Time for catch up on the little odds and ends that will make your editing workday more pleasant. If you're the buyer, it's hard to ignore low cost values, much less powerful free products. A number of influences over the past year have made this a great time if you are ready to spruce up your system.

G-Technology Responds with Major Changes

Less than 24 hours after my "Boycott G-Tech" post on SuiteTake.com, I received several calls from executives at both G-Technology as well as Hitachi. The calls came in while I was editing so they went to voice mail, but when I had a chance to finally call one of them back I was pleasantly surprised that the tone of the conversation was very constructive and apologetic.

Here's a quick summary of the most common feature requests that we’ve gotten over the past year or so, with some commentary on each. These aren't necessarily listed in order of the number of requests; I listed them in order of how interesting they are and how much I wanted to talk about them.
