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

Audio can really make or break a video. Keep these tips & tricks in mind as you are recording to make sure that the sound doesn’t distract from your story! Gone with the wind Wind can be really pesky and loud. If you need to record a subject speaking or other audio for a scene outdoors, be aware of what else is going on and how your device’s mic might be handling the wind. Consider moving to a sheltered place or indoors when someone is saying something that’s important to your story...

L is for Lidar

Making movies has always been about data capture. When the Lumière brothers first pointed their primitive camera equipment at a steam locomotive in 1895 to record Arrivée d’un train en gare de La Ciotat, what were they doing if not capturing data? In the 1927 movie The Jazz Singer – the first full-length feature to use synchronised sound – when Al Jolson informed an eager crowd, “You ain’t heard nothing’ yet!”, what was the Warner Bros. microphone doing? You guessed it: capturing...

March 10, 2015, 12:47 PM

http://www.fcp.co/final-cut-pro/articles/1622-how-...

We are very pleased to publish part two of the story of how the Hollywood feature film Focus was cut on Final Cut Pro X. This time we concentrate on how it was used and how the Libraries, Events and Projects were set up. Exactly how did Jan Kovac edit? What keyboard and control surfaces did he use? How did he trim? (Yes we asked that dynamic trimming question!) And the biggest job of all, how did he and his team keep everything organised? We finish off with what Jan Kovac the Editor and th...
