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

Beta Blues
August 23, 2010, 11:59 AM
Once upon a time, software companies (and some hardware companies, for that matter) had development programs. These development programs were divided into phases – early development, more advanced development, product testing, and finally product release. These phases were often referred to as alpha, beta, release candidate, and release.

I’ve been reminded by the recent postings of those lucky enough to go to NAB this year (although really I can’t complain too much, given that the volcanic activity of Iceland would mean that I’d currently be stranded in Vegas if I’d attended) that I never made my update on the Broadcast Video Expo 2010.
Experimenting with Streaming on a CDN

Recently I was asked to post a copy of the film I just finished cutting online for a producer in Europe to view. Right off the bat, a couple things were obvious. I would need to encode a Flash Video file (FLV) or an H.264 MP4, and I would need to find someplace secure to host it online. On this and previous projects, I’ve often uploaded Quicktimes directly to my website and sent a link and login credentials to whoever needs them.

Well, I’ve been editing with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and the nVidia Quadro CUDA video card for about six months now, and it has been an interesting ride. You can check out my starting impressions in blog posts here, here and here. But what’s the latest?
A Day in the Life of an Assistant

After reality editor Adam Coleite’s several references to assistant editors in the last two posts, I decided it was high time to talk to one of these unsung post workers, even more unsung than editors! I met assistant TV editor Rachel Dong, fresh from R & R in Hawaii after completing a pilot, in Culver City.

Avid Online Tip - Modify

I got an email the other day from a company that I have been hoping to work with for some time. This email was a job offer. A quickie. A day, maybe two. He needed someone to online a short film, but the budget was tight so all they could afford was one day. It was shot on film, telecined to HDCAM SR 444, and offlined on an Avid. Could I come in an online on their Symphony? Basically recapture, and do minor corrections to make sure shots match.
