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

Audio specialist Sennheiser, which continues to file comments with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in light of the pending spectrum auction scheduled to take place in 2015, has launched a website to keep its customers informed on recent developments concerning the future of wireless microphones and the UHF spectrum.

LOS ANGELES—Having lost access to the 700 MHz band a few years ago, wireless microphone operators are now eyeing the proposed broadcast TV spectrum incentive auction with understandable trepidation. There are still some kinks to be worked out, but if the auction of the 600 MHz band goes ahead as planned in 2015, RF mic users could find themselves squeezed—once again—into a fraction of the spectrum that is currently available.

Who is too old for animation? This is the question posed in a packed animation day on April 26th (11.00-15.30) presented by the IFI in collaboration with Animation Skillnet and the answer is definitively nobody! But this day is a great chance to explore what the differences are in animation for adults and animation for children, and will give plenty to think about for both animators and everyone with an interest in visual culture and storytelling.

A few days ago Larry Jordan posted in his blog that Adobe will discontinue sales of CS6 after June 1, but the post has now been updated – it will only be the volume sales, rather than the whole CS6. So, it’s Adobe’s CS6 Cumulative Licensing Program (CLP) and Transactional Licensing Program (TLP) that will be halted (to learn more about TLP and CLP click here).
