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

Expressions in After Effects can help automate a bunch of stuff. This quick tip is writing an expression that will auto scale the layer style stoke to stay in sync with the scale of the layer. If you need stock footage, photos and even After Effects templates. Go check out Envato Elements. http://cinemaspice.net/envato to help support this channel. Don't forget to share this video.

Roles are blurring. As media distribution has accelerated and the cost of production equipment has come down, many check-writers have expected labor costs to follow suit, and technicians of various stripes have had to become competent at non-traditional tasks.

The release of Pro Tools 2018.7 has brought several new features which are mostly aimed at speeding up workflow in cases where an action had to be done over and over again. One such example is the new Duplicate and Extend Edit command. This command doesn't allow us to do anything which couldn't already be done but it facilitates a very common way of repeating clips down the timeline.

It’s hard to believe that it has been more than 22 years since director Brian De Palma delivered the first Mission: Impossible feature to the big screen. The one constant in the five other movies that have followed are the death-defying stunts performed by Tom Cruise himself, who reprises his role as Ethan Hunt in the latest release, Mission: Impossible — Fallout.
