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

It’s nearing the middle of April, so you know what that means? No, I’m not talking tax day. I’m talking the yearly mecca for filmmakers and broadcasters, NAB in Las Vegas, NV. Expos like NAB can be extremely overwhelming, particularly if it’s your first time. So here are five tips you should highly consider before attending the show, whether it’s your first time for 21st time.

The upgrades in Premiere almost all have to do with color. Back when Adobe acquired Iridas (the original developers of SpeedGrade) a few years back, the hope was that not only would Premiere and SpeedGrade communicate with each other much in the same way that other Adobe programs communicated, but that some of the advanced and high-end color features in SpeedGrade would make their way directly into Premiere so that they could be used natively while editing. Not only has all of that happened in t...

LaCie announced its new 4TB Thunderbolt/USB 3 Rugged RAID portable hard drive ($420 list, $399 Amazon) today, and I’ve had some time to take it for a little ‘spin.’ There are two speedy 7200RPM 2TB portable hard drives RAID-ed together inside to give the device very impressive, almost SSD-like speeds but with the cost savings and huge storage of portable hard drives. At the same time, the package isn’t much bigger than a regular portable hard drive and better yet, it can take a serious b...

The Board Of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will have its first meeting tonight since this year’s Oscar show, the lowest-rPete Hammondated since 2009, and the agenda for these post-show meetings usually revolves around a review of the Oscarcast in order to get feedback on what worked and what didn’t. However, this may also be the most publicized (not by the Academy) governors meeting in a long time — if you go by breathless

Perhaps an off-the-wall alternative to Smoke, Nuke and Fusion is HitFilm (www.hitfilm.com). Now in its third release, Hitfilm is a surprisingly capable 3D compositing and VFX solution – with the added benefit of editing facilities.
