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

While we would never say that 8K has become standardised, it’s very much a known entity; we’ve all got a map in front of us and we know where we’re hiding, the argument is just about the finer details of the route and how long it will take to get there.

Apple Vs. RED: Was the REDCODE RAW Patentable or U

January 3, 2020, 03:35 PM

In May, Apple filed a patent petition claiming that RED’s patent on REDCODE RAW was “Unpatentable” for a number of reasons. After the hearing, the court ruled in RED’s favor, stating that Apple’s legal team had not supported their claims sufficiently. This decision means that RED will retain the patent on its implementation of raw compression.

Editor For Once Upon A Time… Reveals The Scenes

Clocking in at two hours and forty-one minutes, Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood fits the standard time length for a Quentin Tarantino film. Inglorious Basterds clocks in at two hours and thirty-three minutes, Django Unchained is two hours and forty-five minutes, and The Hateful Eight hits nearly two hours and fifty minutes. Long, detailed, dialogue-driven epics are common for Tarantino. However, in the case of Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood, the amount of footage cut from the film nearly equa...
