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

Final Cut Pro X's color tools are really a step up from 6 and 7. One of the coolest things they’ve added is vignette coloring tools. Take a look at PixelWizard's tutorial covering how all of these tools work.

The Final Straw that was FCPX

There has been a lot of collective wondering going on lately. People keep asking me and many others why we are so upset by the release of Final Cut Pro X. Why is it a bad thing? Both apps can still be installed ... right? The price is more affordable ... right? The needed updates will come eventually ... right?

Review: Final Cut Pro X

With the release of Final Cut Pro X (FCP X), Apple has adopted a radical new approach that will dramatically change the future of non-linear video editing. FCP X is not an upgrade of Final Cut Studio, but rather an entirely new application that shares the same name.

Is Apple Listening?

First it was the parody on Conan. Then came the forums, anti-FCPX Facebook pages and subsequent YouTube mashups of Der Untergang and Hitler’s reaction to the news.

Apple issuing refunds for Final Cut Pro X?

We already know that not everyone is happy with the new release of Final Cut Pro. Now there are reports that Apple has begun returning the $299 purchase price of Final Cut Pro X to customers who are unsatisfied with the product's features and capabilities and who have filed an official request using Apple's Mac App Store Customer Service form. It seems to be the latest public relations strategy from Apple in attempting to quell unhappiness with the latest version of Final Cut Pro.

bogus 'professional editors hate FCP X'

June 28, 2011, 01:15 PM

http://www.philiphodgetts.com/2011/06/the-bogus-pr...

In my email in-box this morning I received an email thanking me for supporting the online petition "Final Cut Pro X is Not a Professional Application". I did not sign this petition. I do not support the goals of this petition. Clearly this petition is bogus. Of those who’s name appears on it, how many are bogus like mine?

By now I am sure everyone has heard all the bad press, negative reviews and blogs on FCPX. I am sure you know what is missing out of FCPX, if you don't then clearly you are extremely busy and did not even know FCPX was released, therefore kudos to you. Before I begin this review [...]
