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

My Mac setup is used for audio production and front-end development. The Mac Pro is a monster of a production machine. I was a Windows user years ago because of financial limitations and because it felt really great to piece together your own machine. I made the switch to Mac when I discovered Core Audio and native aggregate device chaining (back when that mattered) and haven’t turned back ever since.

Quite often if an image is using an alpha channel, to save on additional multiplications during compositing, the color of the image is multiplied by the alpha value. This is what a premultiplied alpha is, and it needs to be treated differently than a regular alpha channel when compositing.

Being that everything is pretty much procedural in SideFX Houdini, it can lend itself well for creating motion graphics animations. The issue is that Houdini is such an expansive application, although it may lend itself well to motion graphics, it does get a bit more involved than the relatively simple setups available in Cinema 4D.

The latest version of Maya, which is the 2014 extension release has added a new and robust library for faster and more reliable booleans on polygons. The extension release makes use of the Carve library which is a fast and reliable constructive solid geometry library, Making the Boolean operations in Maya work well – work very well.

To me capturing instruments and especially groups of instruments using stereo mic arrays is one of the simplest but most enjoyable parts of the recording process. With the exception of mid-side arrays it is important for all stereo mic arrays to have their gains carefully matched if the stereo image is not to be tilted to the right or left.
