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

IBC 2012 Wrap Up

September 12, 2012, 02:52 PM

I must admit that I arrived in Amsterdam with a sense of deep foreboding at the amount of pixel peeping I was going to be asked to do at IBC this year. The recent availability of cameras like the Sony FS700 and Canon C300, and the realization that they're both quite decent, is an all-out assault on my customary world-weary cynicism. Cameras are now good and cheap, almost to the point where I'm no longer sure what the next best thing is going to look like.

A little itty bitty favor (and free stuff!)

So, I was checking out the book's Amazon.com page and noticed it was a bit, er...lacking in terms of reviews.  It would be amazeballs if anyone who bought the book and has any sort of opinion to post a little diddy on the book's page.  I need all the feedback I can get to make...

The NVIDIA Quadro 4000 graphics card for Mac has been on the market for awhile now, which doesn't make this review antiquated; in fact, having lived and worked with it for awhile now has given me a truer opportunity to review it then when briefly using any product and writing an article based upon limited time usage.

Time? Limited. Video? Limited. Discover the line

You never want to spend too much time on something that simply cannot be much better with more time. In my new world of freelancing I've discovered the hard way about this line between perfection and mediocrity. You want to impress. You want it to be the best. Is putting more time into this project worth it? That's the question you have to ask yourself.
