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

(November 12, 2012) Gangs of one type or another have been around for hundreds of years. While most of us conjure up images of guns and violence, there is often a human element to gang culture not expected in this kind of lifestyle. In the feature-length documentary...

Working Abroad

No matter where you are from, the idea of living abroad can seem exotic. For those in the post industry, making a home in another country can often be a reality — so much so that many HR departments have policies and best practices in place to help with visas, housing and even homesickness.

Review: HP's ZR2740w 27-inch monitor

November 12, 2012, 01:53 PM

http://www.postmagazine.com/Publications/Post-Maga...

Who wouldn't want a big screen? While a 27-inch isn't the largest you can get in the desktop monitor world, it is a perfect size for a lot of people. What matters next is how the display looks, and how well it works for the user. The user? Me... demanding and critical. I work with screens all day long, judging color constantly. At home, I've sported a Dell 24-inch 2405FPW for quite a long time as my primary display. It has held up incredibly, and I thought nothing short of a minor miracle...

Working with RED RAW in Final Cut Pro X

Ok, this was really last week's episode that's out a little late. But IMHO it's worth the wait - in it, Steve Martin from Ripple Training shows me how easy it is to work natively with RED R3D files in the Final Cut Pro X 10.0.6 update.
