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

Turn off sleep mode by clicking the Apple icon, choosing System Preferences, and clicking Energy Saver. Hard disks love to spin and last longer that way, too. For fastest system performance, don't force them to go to sleep.

The original Next Gen report [into the future of the VFX industry] was quite critical of the education system, arguing that in this country we have separated humanities and art from maths and science, and that procedural thinking and computer programming isn't really being taught any more in schools. To teach and learn about things like compositing, you need a pretty good spread between the two.

Ross Shain, chief marketing officer of Imagineer Systems headlined our meeting showing us mocha Pro for Mac, Windows and Linux. He explained how easy it was to replace content on screens, stabilize footage and marry graphics to camera motion, emphasizing to many in the audience who owned a recent version of the Adobe Creative Suite that they already had mocha AE and probably didn't know it.

The most obvious fix to this problem is to use a higher-quality audio file format if avaliable. Most stock music sites (such as Premiumbeat) will provide their music and sound effects as either WAVs or AIFFs…both formats that play well with Final Cut Pro. Mixes from audio post facilities, as well as audio files from digiatal field recorders, are often recorded as WAVs. Some Mac applications will save high quality audio files as AIFFs. So, now you might be scratching your head…
