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

By Randi Altman Who doesn’t love The Sound of Music? Who? Introduce them to me and we’ll talk. Fifty years after it was released in theaters, this classic film about — well, you know what it’s about — was restored by Burbank’s Fotokem, home to one of the last feature film labs in the country. The studio completed the restoration of the 65mm musical through 8K scans from large-format film elements, downsampled to 4K for restoration and digital cinema mastering. For the restorati...

Colour. It's fundamental to conveying mood and tone of voice – from designing a logo, website or brochure, to producing content for print, digital or motion. The simple fact is, your colour palette – or theme – is vitally important.

With the wide accessibility to such great inexpensive acquisition tools like Blackmagic Design Cinema Cameras (coming with a full free copy DaVinci Resolve) and the plethora of other affordable equipment on the market you really have no excuse not to be getting your feet wet into colour correction straight awa...

March is almost over, but by all means it’s been a very colourful month. We’ve had our fair share of creative challenges around colour: we’ve asked you to explore yellow details in your own house, then moved on to interesting uses of blue in the workplace and just last week we’ve explored how red makes your commute more exciting. Anything is possible when you mix the right mindset with the right tools, such as Adobe Color CC. This week we’re going beyond primary colours: prepare t...
