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 program uses the same pattern recognition approach to synchronising audio, but gives it a neat twist. It also offers several other clever tricks that I’ll describe in this review.

Whether it’s the holiday season or just taxes, the end of the year is often a time when production and post folks add a few goodies to their toolkits. Here are just a few suggestions of things to put under the tree for that editor in your life.

OK, so maybe I’m stupid (no comments, thanks very much) and these have always been available, or maybe they’re new: Apple has PDF user manuals for Pro Apps available for download. One of the big disappointments when Final Cut Studio 3 was released was the lack of PDF user manuals—help in FCS3 was only provided through Apple’s user-abusive help viewer, which in 10.6 is an icon-less, non-alt-tabbable, always-on-top annoyance.

As you are probably aware by now, we’re going to go through our book Creating Motion Graphics with After Effects 5th Edition ("CMG5" for short) and pulling out a few "hidden gems" from each chapter. These will include both essential tips for new users, as well as timesaving gems that experienced users may not be aware existed.

Even though most people don't associate Soundtrack Pro with ADR, it has a set of powerful tools designed to record and edit looped dialogue. In this Soundtrack Pro video tutorial Sam McGuire explains the process of replacing dialogue using STP's loop recording, multitake editor, and audio stretch tool. Other topical advice is also discussed.

So much of the technical jargon around digital content creation is fraught with traps for the unwary. As we’ve previously written, an image sensor "pixel" is not the same as a recorded "pixel" and nothing about a 2/3-inch type sensor actually measures 2/3 inch. Another classic source of confusion is the seemingly innocuous ratio—such as 4:4:4—that expresses the digital sampling structure.

Dead pixels have long been a issue on traditional video cameras, but with the recent innovation of shooting HD video on DSLRs the problem is becoming more widespread. Manually fixing damaged and often irreplaceable footage can be a time consuming and sometimes near impossible task. Enter DH_Reincarnation 2.0 that enables up to two dead pixel areas to be intelligently replaced with a single application of the plug-in.

This week, we’ll continue creating a semi-transparent video progress bar as you know them from Youtube et. al. Last week, we created the background elements in Marquee, this week, we’ll create the remaining elements and then animate them in Media Composer.
