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

Firstly, two must-reads by Larry Jordan:- Thoughts on Hard Drive Speed- An Explanation of RAID levelsVideo explanation of RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 10 by Techquickie. He says something very interesting that made me thought."Raid is not a substitution for backing-up. Redudancy is not the same as a back-up".RAID 5 and RAID 6 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P8ZecG9iOI&list=TLJXxWbastKLM-MFnwM_eSjA-FYEiTuGoEJust a couple of ways of setting up RAIDs:

As a foreigner living in China and working in the world of news and documentaries I’ve had many a ‘crazy China’ experience, but one of my more memorable ones came recently. Just before Christmas I traveled to Guangzhou in Southern China, having been invited to be a tutor at a training initiative called DOCROADS. It was being held alongside the annual Guangzhou documentary film festival and was designed as a project-driven creative documentary workshop.

Mac Pro availability continues to deteriorate

9to5Mac originally documented the supply issues with the new Mac Pro in December, but even today availability does not appear to have improved. In fact, it seems to be getting worse. Apple’s European, Chinese and Australian online stores (including the UK) are now reporting ‘April’ dispatch estimates.
