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

Judging by the U.S. cut of The Grandmaster, in comparison to the version released in Hong Kong, we Americans must be really dumb.

Earlier this month, we shared the online interactive screenplay for Shaun of the Dead, as well as a bunch of behind-the-scenes videos for the whole Cornetto Trilogy that Focus Features shared to gear fans up for today's U.S. release of The World's End. The cult following for these films is growing, thanks to the satirical humor, witty banter, and surprisingly well-rounded characters.

The 7th installment of Avid's powerhouse NLE, Media Composer, is an impressive upgrade to previous versions. Not only is Media Composer considerably cheaper than it has ever been, but it also takes some cues from the competing NLE's, and adds some major time-saving features that make it a better fit into many of our editing workflows. Alex Walker, an immensely talented DP, has put together a quick video showing his favorite new features in Media Composer. Check out the video and see how MC7 can ...

With echoes of Monty Python in the background, two years on, Final Cut Pro 7 and Final Cut Studio are still widely in use. As I noted in my post from last November, I still see facilities with firmly entrenched and mature FCP "legacy" workflows that haven't moved to another NLE yet. Some were ready to move to Adobe until...

A container, like a glass containing liquid. That glass would be the metadata and the liquid in that glass would be the essence. I want to replace low quality liquid with high quality uncompressed master resolution liquid. Using the Resolve and Avid Symphony I can end up with an uncompressed .mxf file with embedded “Tape” name metadata created from the best known masters also known as RED, ALEXA, 5D, 7D, GoPro, P2, Phantom, Sequential Files, Tape, etc.

Make movies for yourself. Never compromise, because those compromises are going to haunt you for the rest of your life.

Our friend Dan Chung from newsshooter.com was covering BIRTV-2013, the biggest broadcast exhibition in China and had a chance to talk to Blackmagic design Richard Lim about their pocket cinema camera.
