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 reader submitted Quicktip comes from Brendan McCullough. This is a tip for when you encounter a locked bin while working on an Avid Unity system. I don’t work on a Unity so I haven’t ever encountered this myself but it looks like a nice, sneaky little tip. I would say fair warning though to be sure you know what’s happening in the suite around you whenever modifying something like this in a shared environment.

In a recent guest post on Streaming Media I wrote at length about the promise and power of Cloud video transcoding. Obviously, the topic is of great interest to many — surprisingly perhaps (certainly surprised me) my posts are still the #2 and #3 organic search results when you google "enterprise encoding."

With the announcement of the latest Macbook Pros we get feedback from seasoned editor, Alex Gollner, of Alex4D.com. Alex gives his impression of Thunderbolt, the super-fast connection technology, previously referred to as Light Peak. The new machines feature Quad-Core Intel processors which represents a dramatic shift in what can be achieved in terms of post production on a portable machine.

Congratulations on your work and well-deserved awards, boys! It shoulda gotten best picture too but oh well! To celebrate the pair and their movie, here’s an updated version of my October post on the movie.
