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

The concept of synchronizing clips by sound seems so obvious in retrospect, but when Bruce Sharpe showed his first version of PluralEyes at a small NAB booth, it struck many as nothing short of magic. The first version was designed to sync multiple consumer and prosumer video cameras by aligning their soundtracks in the absence of recorded timecode.

For me, Media Composer 6 was the most important release Avid had done since, er, well, the 1990s probably. Their decision, finally, to open up their products to third party hardware manufacturers was a (perhaps serendipitous) great leap forwards – removing one major barrier to entry for those who were considering leaving another manufacturer’s product, but who had an existing hardware investment. Coupling that with 64 bit performance, a cleaner user interface design, plus other bells...

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.

I've established the style in which I'm going to tell the story right from the beginning. I'm going to use quick cuts, often single frame edits. Does this represent the way the eye would work if you were there? No.New York Street Boys is not about imitating the eye. It's about using a tool, in this case a cut, to enhance the viewing of the story.

(In Spanish) In this new chapter of the Guide norender.com codecs let's talk about one of the properties of the codecs but perhaps most important of resultonas least of the least sold: the compression . In the marketing of video codecs see constant references to the resolution ( 4k, 5k, 8k! ), the frame rate ( 30, 60, 120, 200 fps ), the color depth ( 10, 12, 16 bits ) but rarely refer to the compression or bitrate which are the properties that best define the quality of a codec.

The debate waging between public and private cloud has remained a major cause of worry for many CIOs and technical heads. While the growing number of public cloud service providers are making the users uneasy about the quality of service offered and data security the cost of setting up a private cloud environment is preventing many from adopting the idea as well.
