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

Lightworks Linux Release Limited to Select Few

October 31, 2012, 09:41 AM

http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/10/video-editor-li...

Editshare, the company behind the video editor, announced October 30th as the day Linux users would finally be able to get their hands on the app. But one key cavea affecting that release doesn't seem to have been communicated very well: the alpha is only available to a handful of people.

Western Digital VelociRaptor 1TB Review

http://funkyfresh.com/index.php?option=com_content...

Western Digital's VelociRaptor has been one of our preferred SATA drives for video editing for many years. This time around Western Digital improved the performance and raised the capacity to 1TB while maintaining low noise levels for a 10,000 RPM drive.

Art of the Title: Halloween 3: Season of the Witch

October 31, 2012, 09:38 AM

http://www.artofthetitle.com/title/halloween-iii-s...

A staticky hiss, the squeal of a synth, and a television signal struggling to resolve itself. Noticeably absent is that iconic Carpenterian theme, indicating that this will be no ordinary Halloween.
