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

Considering the accounting trouble Avid has faced lately, incoming CEO Louis Hernandez Jr. had to have seen it coming. When the company announced that they would be indefinitely delaying the reporting of quarterly earnings, he had to have known that NASDAQ would take notice and start the process to delist them on the Stock exchange. So the next step in Avid’s long, slow death has been taken, and you can bet that investors are planning their exit strategies before it’s too late.

Do you wait hours for your large files to be shared with colleagues and clients? Have you ever struggled to use an FTP client? Do you worry about what has happened to your files after sending them?

A free downloadable 246 page report from the MSU Graphics & Media Lab evaluates five stereoscopic movies and highlights various disparity problems thought to cause headaches. The first report from the VQMT3D project looks at horizontal/vertical disparity and colour/sharpness mismatch in the films 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' (2011), 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' (2010), 'Step Up 3D' (2010), 'Galapagos: The Enchanted Voyage' (1999) and 'Into the Deep' (1994).

About a month ago, the fact that Australian customers pay so much more for Adobe CS6 that it’s actually cheaper to fly to the US and get it went viral on the internet. At that point, Adobe had already been summoned in front of Parliament to explain the “price gouging,” and had even dropped their monthly Creative Cloud subscriptions to reasonable rates in response.

If you follow Videomaker closely, you've likely seen us use the terms raw video and uncompressed video. We might say “Camera A captures uncompressed video” or “Camera B shoots raw.” Hopefully we've never said “Camera C shoots uncompressed raw video.” While they sound similar, they do mean different things and shouldn't be used interchangeably.

This year at CES, we heard quite a bit about products coming out using USB 3.0 and/or Thunderbolt. Hard drives, card readers, monitors, even laptop docking stations. Thunderbolt is becoming more and more common in PCs, while the USB Promoter Group plans to update USB 3 in order for it to reach 10Gb/s, virtually eliminating the speed gap. Many devices come in one flavor or the other, but for some, you have a choice.

This approach took off when Apple added the FxPlug architecture to Final Cut Pro. From this start, Noise Industries has been able to develop its FxFactory product into [...]

A new online service is taking video editing to the cloud and offering some interesting options for not only collaboration, but also for mobile cutting in the field as well. The service is called WeVideo, and it not only takes post production into the cloud, but with its three levels of editing (called the Adaptable Editor), allows users to grow with it.
