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

Using zoom makes static subjects come to life, and helps smooth transitions. Throw a little "Ken Burns" flavor into your video with the help of the zoom.

Blackmagic Video Assist 12G HDR is an ideal upgrade for cameras, as it’s super bright 2500nit display is bigger than the tiny displays found on consumer cameras, plus you’re also adding professional focus assist features and better quality file formats.

Recently Avid chose to email their users to advise them not to upgrade to iOS 13 if they were using the Pro Tools Control App. Now Avid has emailed their users again, this time to advise us not to upgrade to macOS Catalina if we use Pro Tools, Media Composer or Sibelius. We have the full statement.

One of the tell-tale signs of a good composite versus a bad composite is the quality of the edges around the foreground layer. For example, it may contain some color contamination from the background it was originally shot against, which can prevent it from seamlessly melting into the new background you are trying to place...

Prior to file-based camera capture, film and then videotape were the dominant visual acquisition technologies. To accommodate, post-production adopted a two-stage solution: work print editing + negative conform for film, offline/online editing for video. During the linear editing era high-res media on tape was transferred to a low-res tape format, like 3/4″, for creative editing […]

One of the most common problems I run into as a one-man production team is keeping tabs on all my assets and organizing all of my files, especially while working under tight deadlines. Digging through multiple hard drives and duplicate folders is frustrating, specifically when sifting through multiple versions of the most recent edits requested by clients.
