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

THE FUTURE OF FUNDING FILMS

It doesn’t look good for the major Hollywood studios and Free to air TV. Most of them still operate under on old business model and are notorious for throwing away too much money on developing, producing and marketing movies/shows. So, if the studios and networks go belly up, where’s the financial investment going to come from in the future?

Kanen and Matt kick back to talk about the Avid of old and the Avid of today, and Kanen is pretty confused about what Matt does all day. The conversation of course tends towards the different NLE and other software options out there.

Now there’s been some confusion about this, so we’ll try to make it clearer: This news does not mean Adobe will stop selling any of the CS products, only that you will no longer be able to buy them in the form of a shrinkwrapped box, physically hand-delivered via mail, courier, or store. Customers can continue to download their purchases instantly as most already do, saving on both shipping costs and the environment.

Templates in Premiere Pro

One of the many benefits of using templates are their ability to be a good starting point on anything you work on. When I started out as an editor, I was amazed by the templates that were created for After Effects and Apple Motion. There are templates for smooth text animations, video displays and much more. One more intricate and complex than the next. However, I now believe templates should serve the purpose of efficiency and speed from a workflow standpoint and not having to reinvent the whee
