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

Happy Birthday After Effects! It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years. While I didn’t know you from birth, you came into my life when you were a couple of years old – just before your new family at Adobe adopted you. Not unlike a toddler in their terrible two’s my first experience with you was a bit overwhelming. Let me explain. My background was graphic design. You were my first move into the world of motion graphics. And for that, I am forever grateful. But I must admit, it took a bi...

Apple’s MacBook Air is thin, light, and great for traveling, but when you get to your desk, the ritual of plugging in a keyboard, external monitor, speakers, and an external hard drive can feel anything but convenient. For ethernet users, the MacBook Air’s (as well as the Retina MacBook Pro’s) lack of an ethernet port can be problematic if you don’t have an Apple Thunderbolt Display or a Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter.

Adobe After Effects is celebrating its 20 year anniversary. I’ve only been using it for 17 of those years, but I’m pretty sure I’ve packed about 100 years of use into that time.

Someday we might look back at the time when we were forced to use masses of chaotic, unruly conduit with a certain nostalgia. But then likely be glad those days are long behind us.

We often receive questions from prospects and customers about optimal server hardware specs for best performance when using Squeeze Server. While this subject can be a White Paper or very long topic, I’ll attempt to cover some summary information that we’ve discovered– I’ll also request this to be a conversation, as we’d like to hear from customers and their real-world experience in the field.
