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
DIY Colour Grading

Color Grading is too often regarded as an arcane, exclusive science not fit for mere mortals. But the digital age is slowly starting to reshape this mentality and allow for a clearer perspective through the haze of hyperbole. Which is a good thing because the tools for getting great color grading results have never been better, cheaper or more accessible.
Final Cut Pro X hit by negative reviews

Apple has released Final Cut Pro X, the long awaited successor to Apple's tried and true FCP 7. Available for USD299 via the Mac App Store, FCP X brings with it a number of new features such as a magnetic timeline, content auto analysis, and background rendering that enables you to keep on working while your Mac chugs away.

This quick tip came from a viewer question about something that was seen in the "Animating with Keyframes" tutorial. A mysterious red rectangle appeared, and of course the question was asked...."What does that red rectangle do?" Well, here's the answer.

At this evening's Final Cut Pro Supermeet in Kensington, London, we finally got a chance to test external drives connected using Thunderbolt – and the results are as impressive as you'd expect.

If you still have doubts that FCP X is really just iMovie on steroids - and the fact that the first thing it asks to import from IS iMovie and that’s not enough of a clue - then take a very close look at the launch screen for FCP X.

How Apple re-cut Final Cut Pro

It's only been on the Mac App Store for a few days, but Final Cut Pro X has already stirred up a whole messy pot of controversy. Despite its status as the top paid and top grossing app in the store, the program has dropped to a measly two-and-a-half star user rating, with more than 200 one-star reviews.
Jordan gives tips FCP X at London's SuperMeet

The London SuperMeet took place on Thursday, 23 June and Larry Jordan took the stage to talk about Final Cut Pro X. Here is the first video that we found on one of the forums documenting this event. The quality of the footage might not be the best as it has been shot with a handheld camera with no optical stabilization but it is the content that matters.

A common problem on the Apple forums from iMovie users has been the inability to hear audio from DV files imported from iMovie.
