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

For everybody who has been waiting patiently (and otherwise) for what I did after my "I'm done with Drobo" article, today's the day. I'm so sorry that it's taken this long, but I was waiting for the last piece of my backup strategy puzzle to be complete, but that's taken so long that I'm just going to go ahead and write it from where it stands now, so here goes.

Jeffrey Ford and I met at Edit Fest New York after his panel where he and his first assistant Kiran Pallegadda discussed how they approached editing The Avengers. The two have been working closely on several projects including: Crazy Heart, Public Enemies, and Captain America: The First Avenger. Jeffrey's work shows a wide range of pacing, storytelling...

If you render a lot of video for the web, YouTube, or Blu-Ray, then I'm sure waiting for your videos to render so you can distribute them is one of the most annoying parts of your day.

In talking about my upcoming editing course debuting in October, friends suggested that I write down the most serious misconceptions about editing. So here's the list - a Letterman-style countdown – to combat the delusions and set down the realities of editing today. 10. Editing requires no planning You need to backward engineer your show...

One of the lesser known editing features of FCPX is the secondary storyline. So what are they and how and when would you want to use one? Our usual duo are on the case.

Current state of affairs in Mac post land: I don't know about you, but I've grown weary of Apple's lack of attention to the needs of production professionals (on the hardware side...the software side is still an open question-sort of-but let's not open an FCP-X debate in a post about hardware). It should come as news to no one that video post-production...

There were two elements to modern production that were noted by their relative absence at IBC 2012, they were 3D and Final Cut Pro. Yes there were 3D products and yes there was a Supermeet and Apple were there but both were definitely out of the spotlight during the show. For Adobe Apple's slide in to the shadows caps what could be for their video product Premiere Pro, a game changing cycle of updates. Ever since they introduced the Mercury Playback Engine in their v5 release their stock has...
