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

At NAB 2013 AJA announced their ROI Mini-Converter, which they emphatically stated does not stand for “Return on Investment” but “Region of Interest”. When they announced it, I was very interested in it since as a documentary editor...

My final choice of video editing program: Final Cu

The cries were fierce and seething. What did Apple do to my Final Cut Pro? It has been a little over two years since Apple software engineers upended the video-editing universe with the release of an “all new” Final Cut Pro X version of the proverbial video-editing program. Not long after the initial discussions as to whether it is called “X” or “Ten” subsided, did the bitchin’ and moaning among the ranks start.

SAN MARINO, CA. I come up with inventions and brilliant ideas all the time. Seriously. My issue is follow-through. If I had it, The Randi Altman Napkin Sleeve would be worn by every kid seven and under in North America. Dave Basulto with his iOgrapher. Well, meet David Basulto, educator, producer, post pro and the man behind the iOgrapher, a device that turns your iPad or iPad mini into a camera rig.

Does 3D Still Have a Future?

August 15, 2013, 11:14 AM

We know a number of readers here at TGD are not fond of 3D, and got sick of the hype long ago. 3D has certainly taken a dive in the States, but you often have to make a movie in 3D for it to play in China, where we’re counting on the box office over there for a film to break even.

FCPX Turning Point

August 14, 2013, 04:27 AM

http://www.revuptransmedia.com/index.php/tutorials...

Two years ago I wrote a piece called FCP X: the missed opportunity. At the time I wasn’t bashing the program, but rather Apple’s seemingly clumsy approach to the transition, and today I can still smell the lingering smoke from those burned bridges. Reading it today, I stand most of my...
