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

This one is about killing babies. No, not ACTUAL babies. Segments of shows that you worked really hard on...poured your life into...don’t work. You have to kill them.

Beware of (Some) YouTube FCP Tutorial Videos

http://www.studiodaily.com/blog/?p=5693
A couple of weeks ago I came across a YouTube Final Cut Pro tutorial about how to edit a music video. It popped up in my RSS feed, as the "tutorial" was embedded on a website. As one who often edits music videos and is always looking to pick up tips or a better way to do things, I clicked over to watch. What I saw was one of the biggest train wrecks of a FCP tutorial I’ve ever seen. Not just because it was badly produced but because a lot of...

Media Composer (and Symphony and News Cutter) can be pretty picky about versions when it comes to supporting software. Specifically Quicktime and the NVidia drivers.
