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

Yep, tweeted this week by Michael Horton. Blackmagic has kicked in a full $29,000 Davinci Resolve as part of the "World Famous Raffle" at the Las Vegas FCPUG SuperMeet. That ALONE is worth attending the supermeet if you're going to be out at NAB 2011. (along with the other items that make up the $81,000 worth of prizes and counting)

The South African Guild of Editors are hosting two Documentary Editing Masterclasses in association with Cape Winelands Film Festival 2011. Liani van Straaten, editor of Odd Number, gave Cutaway some insight into editing this documentary film which will be featured at CWFF.

About 7 months ago I started a project, a new web series of short short movies. We shot the majority of one of them, but always intended to shoot the last shot on the next one. Life intervenes and here we are more than half a year later and finally getting that shot and doing another short for the series.

Here we sit just a few short weeks from NAB, right after another upgrade to Avid Media Composer and possibly on the verge of what might be the biggest Final Cut Pro upgrade ever. Add to that what will probably be another NAB upgrade to Adobe Premiere Pro and I think it’s safe to say that the three A’s are all thinking hard about and working hard on improving that workhorse of post-production, the nonlinear editing application.

I've worked on motion picture advertising campaigns for every major studio. My editorial reel is online here, and I'm the reasonably-gregarious creator of a comic strip, here, so I tend to get a lot of inquiries from people looking to break into the film industry, or become editors, or trailer editors specifically.

I just got back from one of the most interesting shoots I have ever been on. Our client wanted multiple short pieces shot, edited, and uploaded daily with a 12 hour turnaround. To make things more complicated we would be traveling 6-12 hours per day and every day we would wake up in a new city! Also, as we got more comfortable with the turnaround we would ramp up our shoot schedule from from 2 edits per day to 4.

When it comes time to edit your video, the hard drives you use are going to have a huge impact on the performance of your system. No matter how much RAM you have or how powerful of a video card, you just won't get real-time performance if your drives are a bottleneck.
