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

Murder by Death (1976)

January 22, 2013, 07:50 AM

Wayne Fitzgerald's opening titles for Murder by Death produce more questions than answers, but that is the MO of any mystery worth its salt. As the titles "Murder" and "Death" hover ominously, it takes the audience a moment to register that the illustrated cutouts aren't the familiar Addams Family characters from the New Yorker, but rather a new set of characters drawn by Charles Addams acting out a scene of miniature malice.

We have a conversation with Aharon Rabinowitz -- a guy who is very fortunate to do what he loves. Aharon is the Director of Communities for Red Giant and the host of Red Giant TV. We talk about Red Giant, indie filmmaking and a lot more.

Thunderbolt for the Masses!

Debuting early in 2011, the dual protocol Thunderbolt standard promised dramatically improved transfer performance between peripheral devices and even the ability to daisy chain up to six devices form one port. So why, two years later, is it still considered a marginal technology?

What colour is night?

This is the sort of question that vexes film and TV people because we're torn between two things: the need to follow conventions, so that the audience can follow what's going on, and the desire to be original. Or, to put it another way, we're a bunch of insecure fashion victims who lack the courage of our own convictions.

Expanding the video cloud

If you were at NAB or IBC in 2012, you may have seen us exhibiting on the Panasonic stand to demonstrate our unique cloud based, tapeless workflow. Hopefully that was a clue that we‘d be working even more closely with Panasonic and now that we’re able to talk more openly about the partnership, here are a few more details.

Some of you may have experienced the beachball of death when FCPX tries to load a project and eventually resorted to force-quitting the app.

Avid Media Composer 6.5 review

January 21, 2013, 08:22 PM

http://www.digitalartsonline.co.uk/reviews/video-p...

The hardware liberation that started in Media Composer 6.0 is continued in the 6.5 update with a toggle for attached devices that releases them, so you can use software-only features without having to disconnect them. This is fine for Avid's own hardware, but third-party drivers need to be updated to make use of the feature or it gives an error message.

A step in the Commodity Hardware Revolution

Not too long ago, I was asked to write up my predictions on storage and networking technology for the coming year. One of those predictions was the rise of new, combined file system/logical volume managers like ZFS and BtrFS.
