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

Here we are at NAB again and here’s another release of Adobe Premiere Pro (and the entire Creative Suite). This years release is not quite the watershed release that last years CS5 was but Premiere Pro CS5.5 packs some very nice updated features in overall, while still ignoring a few that I personally think they need to address to keep it moving forward and winning in the minds of editors.

Chris Meyer introduces his favorite new features in AE CS 5.5 in the first of a complete training series hosted by Adobe, AE CS 5.5: New Creative Techniques Introduction. How do you spell woohoo?!

On Saturday the news broke that Filmlight is releasing a full featured Baselight color correction plug in for Final Cut Pro. On their website they clearly show the plug in running on Final Cut Pro 7 but the release date is not until Fall 2011. Baselight to FCP Of course we all know now that Spring 2011 has floated by numerous reliable sources as the release date for the new Final Cut Pro (8? X? iMovie Pro?).

Recorded live at the UKFCUG meeting, Birmingham, March 31, 2011. Editors talk - open discussion. Equipment for the modern editor - what you need to survive in the modern economy and how to make money at the same time.

AJA produce two ProRes recording devices: the Ki Pro and Ki Pro Mini. The benefit this offers to users of cameras with SDI or HDMI connectors is that an uncompressed feed can be recorded as ProRes to the AJA device. The result is a 4:2:2 ProRes recording, free from the compression artifacts which plague many low-cost cameras.

Okay, I am not on the road to NAB... but David Leitner is, and he will be filing reports from the conference here at Filmmaker. Look for his pieces beginning tomorrow or Monday. There are other sites to follow as well. Koo will be attending NAB for the first time and posting interviews, write-ups and news over at No Film School. Phillip Bloom will be attending as will Vincent Laforet. For many, the big news, at least tomorrow, will be (the rumored) announcement by Apple of the new Final Cut Pro.

The anticipation might soon be over. At next Tuesday nights Supermeet in Las Vegas we may get a sneak peek at what Apple has been working on. For those who are not regular readers of my blog, here is the links to my evolving thoughts on why Apple needs to rewrite both Final Cut Pro and QuickTime into a modern codebase, and why they may take this opportunity to not just rewrite, but to rethink how modern NLE software works.

FreeForm Pro runs in its own proprietary 3D engine, and it is most definitely 3D, says Tudor Ted Jelescu. FreeForm Pro uses Adaptive Tessellation, true 3D displacement, Reflection Mapping, and Renders Depth Maps for use with other plug-ins, like Trapcodes Particular and Frischlufts Lenscare. Read for more information and Tudor's first-hand experience with this amazing product powered by Mettle.

It seems that many folks who work in this little biz we call the film and video production industry will be at NAB. And there is quite a few of those that also have a blog or website of some sort.
