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

There are bargains and "free stuff" for designers and VFX artists right now in the Holiday sales.

Some thoughts on Metadata

July 5, 2012, 09:31 AM

http://www.philiphodgetts.com/2012/07/some-thought...

There are many kinds of metadata, and previously I've noted six that are important to production. There's a whole second category of metadata that's more related to asset management, but they share the common goal of being able to find a specific shot, as quickly as possible. In this post I'm talking about what would be Added Metadata of the six.

Sharing projects in FCPX over Dropbox

July 5, 2012, 09:27 AM

http://fcp.co/final-cut-pro/tutorials/872-sharing-...

We have covered sharing FCPX projects before here on FCP.co, but this is slightly different. To prove the point that collaborative editing is possible, Steve Martin shares a project remotely via Dropbox and notifies Mark Spencer via Skype. Good to see some distance in the actual process rather than being demonstrated on a single machine.
