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

Trapcode Form 2, released yesterday by Red Giant, arrives with some exciting 3D particle controls that should give regular After Effects users a number of novel creative options for their particle-based composites. This version of the After Effects plug-in is certainly much faster, with near real-time response rates.

Say you're working on a project and you're not exactly sold on some of your b-roll. You have a bunch of shots that could work, but don't really have the time to insert each of them and recut. FCP X offers a quick solution in the audition tool.

If you're not a business don't tune out just yet. There will be some valuable info for you too. Whether you're a blogging mom, music/movie junky, a small retail business or a larger production studio you've all probably felt the growing pains of digital storage. You're left with a few option, buy another external drive, try yourself or pay someone to install a larger internal drive, buy a new computer or maybe abandon technology and go back to sticks and stones.

Over on Creative Cow’s Premiere Pro forum, user Jaysin Osterkamp asked, "where is the white flash transition in Premiere Pro?" This transition is a common effect used by editors, but is not included in Premiere Pro. So, what do you do in this situation? My advice is to create your own transition using video effects.

I recently ordered a collection of new Moo Minicards for Photoshop World. What's cool is they let you do business cards with 100 different images on the back. Photogs love em as they're a great way to show off their work. Here are my 100 selects… hoping they all work at a small size.

The FrameViewer (Tools > FrameViewer, or press Option+7) allows you to compare two different shots in the same window - such as the current frame with and without filters, or the current and previous shot.

Since the release of Final Cut Pro X, some editors have decided jump into FCPX, to stay with legacy versions of Final Cut, or switch to an entirely new non-linear editor. So, I'd like to know, which editing software are you using? If the one you are using isn’t listed in the poll, feel free...
