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

Physicists in the last ten years have accomplished an incredible feat; they have slowed and even stopped light using ultra cold plasmas. The light is absorbed in the plasma and does not radiate again until a laser beam perpendicular to the original path of the first light beam irradiates the ultra cold plasma and excites to it reemit the light along its original path. Since the motion of light in a sense defines our local perception of time we might say that these experiments have slowed...

Adobe had something big to share at the current IBC show in Amsterdam — a brand new collaborative video editing platform. Called Adobe Anywhere, it lets offices working with Adobe editing products easily pass files from one editor to another, collaborate without delays, and work on the same files from any computers in any location. Production teams that work in different locations will especially like the time savings of Anywhere.

In a film 24fps project, one often has to make PAL outputs, at 25fps. Here we refer to 24fps as 'true 24 fps' not like 23.976fps which is called 24fps in NTSC countries.
