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

Predictions: What Apple will release in 2013

January 21, 2013, 09:37 AM

http://www.macworld.com/article/2025514/prediction...

If we can predict just one thing for Apple in 2013, it's this: The company will continue to release products. But we're going to predict more than one thing (because we're crazy like that): Apple won't close down the business and give its money back to its shareholders, and it won't stop developing its major product lines. Here's how we think that development could go this year.

Cutting the Cord

Someday we might look back at the time when we were forced to use masses of chaotic, unruly conduit with a certain nostalgia. But then likely be glad those days are long behind us.

Adobe After Effects For Absolute Beginners

January 21, 2013, 09:31 AM

http://www.surfacedstudio.com/tutorials/adobe-afte...

Most of my VFX tutorials are aimed at intermediate to advanced users of After Effects. While I also have an ongoing video series covering the basic concepts, I felt I was missing a tutorial for absolute beginners, for people who are just starting to use After Effects and are trying to create their first own VFX.

More Unrelated Stuff (Episode 2)

This was first suggested to me in an email, but I forgot to write down the name of the person submitting this. One of the limitations of Final Cut Pro X is that it doesn’t support batch exporting. That is, you can’t select a bunch of projects and export them all at once.

Processing colour with analogue eyes

January 21, 2013, 09:28 AM

http://www.redsharknews.com/post/item/376-processi...

Dale Grahn, who is what used to be called a Colour Timer in the days when there was no digital colour processing, has created the colour "look" of some seminal films of the last couple of decades: Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator and Munich. Having Stephen Spielberg on your resume is obviously a good thing.
