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

EDL en Final Cut Pro X con "EDL-X "

Mis primeros pasos editando fueron en una sala lineal "A/B roll" que tenía un par de decks U-Matic SP controladas por un remoto O/Z que permitía guardar y leer EDL o Edit decision list, algo no tan común para los controladores de entonces. Como en esa sala editábamos tape-to-tape directamente para salir al aire, nunca le vi la utilidad hasta que unos cuántos años después comencé a editar comerciales y tuve que mandar mi primer EDL.Ya en mi época de editor lineal el EDL era un form...

Avoid Group-Think, Where Great Ideas Go to Die

Trying to nail down a great idea in a large group of intelligent individuals can be unwise. For every reason to go forward with an idea, someone will think of a reason not to. By overanalyzing the concept, any progress gets paralyzed.
