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

Using iZotope Stutter Edit on Lead Sounds

A lead synth can take a song a very long way. Beats are always welcome, bass is always necessary, but leads tend to provide a hook... And, it’s the hook that we always remember, right?

CS6 101: Titles And Rolling Credits Made Easy

Abobe Premiere Pro fans: One of the most important components of any quality multimedia presentation is the titles and rolls. Titles and rolls enable the creator of the media to convey information, regardless of content. Whether it’s a simple credit roll or intricate tickers on the screen of your local TV station’s breaking news coverage, the technology is the same: character generation.

Michael Kahn talks, Twitter lets us all be there

Last night (January 30) there was a screening of a little movie called Lincoln. After that screening there was a question and answer session with the film's editor Michael Kahn. We all know Michael Kahn as Steven Speilberg's legendary editor but he's cut for other directors too so any chance to hear a great editor speak is bound to be filled with lots of gems other editors can use as well.

How adding HP workstations to a previously all-Mac shop has made better business sense for one of Burbank's premiere post houses. When I founded AlphaDogs Editorial in 2002, it was because I saw that technological trends made it possible for producers and editors to buy their own equipment and open their own facilities.
