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

Way back many moons ago the folks over at Digital Heaven recognized the need for a simple tool that would keep your hard disks from spinning down while you're busy pounding away on Final Cut Pro. You know the situation: you're editing like a madman when suddenly everything grinds to a halt as some errant hard disk has spun down and you hear that tell-tale sign of one of them spinning back to life (often a very annoying thing in external Western Digital My Book drives).

Have you ever had the feeling you're waiting for someone that isn't going to show up? Maybe Apple will update the Mac Pro tower, maybe they won't. The question is how long are you willing to wait? Each day we hear from more creative professionals that they have decided to abandon the Mac Platform as...

Often people apply ToonIt as a last step in their video process, and wonder why the end result doesn't look all that cartoonish. In this episode, Aharon Rabinowitz shows you how to plan and shoot for video-to-cartoon, and get a convincing result.

For a variety of reasons, I couldn't resist taking the opportunity to give Filmlight's new Baselight plugin for Final Cut Pro 7 a whirl. Baselight has long been one of the industry's premiere grading applications, used on projects both large and small, and among professional colorists I've always heard it spoken of glowingly.

FilmLight's "Baselight for Final Cut Pro" is the company's first adventure into low-cost grading solutions following on from the likes of DaVinci Resolve and Scratch. It provides a large number of tools, adapted from the full Linux version of Baselight, including the software's interface, shapes, keys, mattes as well as all of their usual tool presets such as Film Grade, Video Grade, Six Vector etc.
