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

Top Technology Pick: High Point Technologies

  One of the challenges I face quite often in my ProVideo testing lab is the ever changing hardware that arrives on a regular basis. While it sounds awesome (let’s be honest – it is…) , it’s also a challenge  – as we all know in the real world we need to keep those older high dollar investments up and running as long as we can. I get these types of questions on how to keeping older tech updated  all the time. One clear example of this $$$ investment is storage. As man you of ...

Now that those promoting UHD are starting to talk about High Dynamic Range and Wide Colour Gamut, it is worth considering what Final Cut Pro X does with brightness and colour information internally. Here is a still from some footage from EditStock.com - the site that shares rushes from all sorts of productions so people can practice editing and post production - and the scopes showing its range of colour and brightness: This still shows a good range of colour from 0-100 for red, green a...
