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

This is a quick post listing a few of the internal differences between version 10.0 and 10.0.1 of Final Cut Pro X. A few extra messages associated with importing XML. There are also some messages supporting those attempting to run 10.0.1 on systems with unsupported graphics cards:

Episode 35: The Templatorization of "Creativi

The trend toward basing creative endeavors on templates has been a trend for many years, culminating in Hollywood’s use of its history as templates for its current production. Whether this is a good or bad thing depends on whether you value your personal creativity, or you’re pushing a budget to get a project finished.

WEEK ONE AT THE EDIT CENTER

September 26, 2011, 12:01 PM

http://www.filmmakermagazine.com/news/2011/09/week...

As a director, I have sat in the editing room for the better part of two decades. My long-time friend and brilliant editor, Hannah Neufeld has talked my off the ledge, dissuaded me from many bad ideas, and brought her own keen eye and internal rhythm to projects that we have worked on together over the years. Other editors (notably David Ritsher) have done the same for me.

In a recent update to Final Cut Pro X, Apple introduced Roles. Since FCPX is not track-based, some editors were having problems organizing the type of media they had in the timeline. Thanks to Roles, they no longer need to worry. What Are Roles? Roles are basically labels that can be applied to audio, video...
