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

Recently Iain Anderson posted a great article about Motion being every editor’s secret weapon. I agree whole-heartedly. If you use Final Cut Pro you need to be using Motion. That’s the premise of the above video, which I created to demonstrate how powerful, useful, and flexible this $50 application is, especially (but not exclusively) for [...]Read More... from The Magic of Motion

Allowing editors to focus on individual shots while cutting revolutionized the film industry, which is why for other people, that word [...]Read More... from The Moviola Movie Connects the Past to the Present of Hollywood and the Filmmaking Industry

Generalists versus Specialists

April 30, 2022, 08:25 PM

https://digitalfilms.wordpress.com/2022/04/29/gene...

“Jack of all trades, master of none” is a quote most are familiar with. But the complete quote “Jack of all trades, master of none, but oftentimes better than master of one” actually has quite the opposite perceived meaning. In the world of post production you have Jacks and Jills of all trades (generalists) and […]
