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

AVID'S NEW ISIS

As this issue was going to press, Avid announced that it is expanding its ISIS shared storage product family with the introduction of the ISIS 5000. The company introduced the flagship Unity ISIS back in November of 2005, and James Frantzreb, Avid’s senior marketing segment manager for broadcast and storage, says the ISIS file system has since "been proven in the most demanding and high-profile media production environments in the world."

Media Composer 5 has been out for a while now... And since my initial impressions of it I’ve been thinking more about what it signals for the future of Avid in general and Media Composer specifically – about what I expect to see in the coming versions.

MATROX VETURA CAPTURE – STAND ALONE CAPTURE

Well, I don’t often post press releases here for companies...I feel that I want to more share my experiences than just repost press releases. BUT...I like Matrox, I rely on their hardware for my bay and it works great for me. And not long ago Phil Hodgetts and Terry Curren were talking about how the new FCP should do away with the tape capture tool (stupid idea, sorry guys)...and how only AJA hardware...

The guy who put the word PRO in Final Cut Pro

When FCP hit the world back in 1999 the program was regarded as a video editing application. For those wishing to work with film, and match the negative to the edit produced from within Final Cut, this was a formidable challenge. Those at an Los Angeles based edit facility known as DigitalFilm Tree were pioneers who broke through the wall of expensive post production and made film editing using FCP possible. Ramy Katrib, Founder of DigitalFilm Tree, was instrumental in making this happen.

If one thing wow’d me when I first started editing, it was third party plug-ins that really amazed me, and one package that always seemed to be a given on any editing system was Genarts Sapphire.
