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

Managing 12 jobs simultaneously is a daunting task but Peter Dippery does it routinely. Keeping everything going and running smoothly is no easy feat but in todays compressed budgets it turns out to be the best way to maximize profits. Peter also talks about “Project Variability”, a new podcast he is producing that discusses Education and what we can do to improve it in our country.

There's a good reason why the Mac Pro has six Thunderbolt 2 ports: current Thunderbolt tech isn't powerful enough to drive more than one 4K display per port. Future computers shouldn't face that limitation, though.

In this part you'll use Modo's cutting edge sculpting tools to add high definition details to the Hern character. Tomasz Lechocinski will walk you through the use of Modo's sculpting brushes as you build up muscle definition, add wrinkles and sculpt fine details for the antlers, hoofs and fingernails. Finally, you'll model and uvmap Hern's earing, necklace and loincloth to complete the character.

As of 4-23-2014 the only HD video file format that I know of that the Avid can read the embedded "Tape Name" metadata from is the Material Exchange Format (MXF) file. I noticed for Avid created mxf media files there is always a default metadata match where the embedded "Tape Name" metadata matches the "Source" name metadata. This "Source" is not displayed in a bin by default.

The new episode of MacBreak Studio is finally here and Steve Martin and Mark Spencer focus their attention once again on Final Cut Pro X. This time they will try to help you avoid spelling mistakes. Final Cut Pro X has a built-in spellchecker, but no tool is perfect and if you work with titles, include people's names in your projects, etc., and want to be sure that everything is correct, take profit of the power of the combination of the Timeline Index and the Find and Replace Title Text command
