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

Collection of 40 look-up-tables (LUTs) that will quickly transform your footage to give it a cinematic look. Each LUT creates a unique look that can be used on it's own or in combination with your traditional color grading workflow. The entire collection of looks was created by Tom Antos to aid in his workflow over the past few years. These original looks have been used in numerous films, music videos and documentaries that Tom worked on.

Ben Turley has a website where you can experiment and make your very own camera LUTs. Ben’s LUTCalc – 1D & 3D Cube LUT Calculator v2.1 has all sorts of goodies, such as Grading LUTs and Camera LUTs, Recorded Gamma, Output Gamma, CineEI ISO, Stop Correction, ASC-CDL, Knee Levels, Black Level / Highlight level, and you can even import your LUTs to look at and work on with the LUTCalc.

3D LUTs are all the rage these days for the DSLR and small form camcorder (as well as the large body cameras), and for good reason. The beauty of a good set is a non-destructive way to manipulate your image from a standard, mundane look, to something far more cinematic, with a very simple process.

We here at Fstoppers can forgive our beloved Trevor Dayley for jumping ship and joined the crew over at SLRLounge as long as he keeps turning us on to useful tools and tips like the Adobe Color CC app. This thing is so cool and it's free. Adobe never seems to stop enriching it's eco systems with improved connectivity and functionality. The Color CC app allows you to sample real world colors (you'll see what I mean by that in Trevor's video) or create color palettes from photos straight from your...

When Apple launched Final Cut Pro X, one of the items that users missed from previous versions was the popular three-way color corrector. Most built-in color correction modules and plug-ins use the common color wheel method for changing color balance. It's based on the principle that to reduce a certain color cast, you push the wheel in the opposite direction of that color. This decreases the color you want to reduce by shifting the balance toward the colors that are on the opposite side of the ...

There’s nothing worse than returning from a shoot to discover that all your images are blue, or green. Or, the frustration of trying to create a compelling look for your story and not knowing how all the different color tools work.
