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

Film Editing 101: Types of Transitions

"The notion of directing a film is the invention of critics - the whole eloquence of cinema is achieved in the editing room" said Orson Welles. A directors vision of the movie is incomplete till the editor has done his/her magic. While screenwriters and directors are the first and second storytellers of a movie, editors are the third ones. The editor may construct or deconstruct a narrative or documentary and shape it to his or her own will.

Playing with dynamics systems in 3D software is one of the areas that gives the most instand gratification, probably working the same areas of the brain that give us a buzz when playing Mousetrap as a kid.

Getting your work approved and bought off on can be cumbersome. Frame.io is an amazing way to share your work with clients and then get feedback in a way that is fast, powerful, and unique. Just last week they released their FCPX companion app that extends the capability and functionality of FCPX in ways that are very interesting.
