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

Hard drive trouble

Was working on 3 different projects, back to back, no room to stop. It was sleep and work and eat and nothing else for a week. Everything is going good - I've got happy clients and I'm happy to have cleared some work and made room for the next load. So I decide to do the essential and clone the drive.

Useful Tools for Editors: Tonalizer|VFX

January 18, 2012, 11:13 AM

http://www.studiodaily.com/blog/?p=8347

Here's an interesting color correction plug-in for Final Cut Pro X, Final Cut Pro 7 and Motion users: Tonalizer|VFX. Released last year by the Danish company Irudis, Tonalizer stands apart from all the other color correction plug-ins out there with its nuanced approach to the task. Plus, it can do some things that a lot of other FCPX plug-ins can't. For starters, it doesn't try to hit you over the head with canned presets and it doesn't encourage extreme corrections.

Video Editors, How Do You Manage Disk Space?

January 18, 2012, 11:11 AM

http://nofilmschool.com/2012/01/handy-mac-app-mana...

Video takes up a lot of hard drive space. HD video more so than SD, 4K more than HD… and since the flooding in Thailand, hard drive prices have spiked precipitously. So there's always room in an editor's toolkit for an app to analyze drive space and zero in on the largest directories to delete or move. Similar to my approach to tracking time, freeing up space is all about focusing on what's important: in this case, the largest files. DaisyDisk is a paid Mac app that I find myself using...
