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

If you took any time to evaluate color grading tools at NAB 2012 then you must have seen DaVinci Resolve 9 running at the Blackmagic Design booth.

If you looked "under the hood" of a computer processor, you would find that there are very few functions it could ever be asked to perform that required more raw computing power than video encoding, decoding and transcoding. The engineers at Carlsbad, Calif.-based Sorenson Media devote a great deal of their resources to devising the best ways to harness the power of specific processors (from manufacturers such as Intel). This targeted optimization allows the company’s enormously popular...

When it comes to folder organization, there are two kinds of people: Filers and searchers. Filers keep their files organized in elaborate folder hierarchies. Searchers don't worry about where their files are; they just use search to find what they need. If you're a searcher, Tagit could be a great tool for you.
