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

Things Broadcast Should Move Past In 2013

January 17, 2013, 04:44 PM

In the spirit of cleaning the broadcast industry's technology slate and giving us all a fresh start, we have looked into our collective crystal ball and compiled a list of things that we feel that will not, or at least should not, be seen after 2013. Some of these are small. Others, perhaps, are the pet peeves of minds that spend a lot of time staring at schematics and contemplating efficient workflows.

Video Editing Tips: Organizing Your Footage

I have seen tons of editing tutorials out there that are NLE specific. I watch them all the time. However, I rarely see any basic editing tutorials that are useful for any NLE. In order to fill the void, I present my video-editing tips series, good for the newbie, and potentially useful to the pro. [...]

PHYX Cleaner 2.0 Review

January 17, 2013, 12:53 PM

While DSLR cameras can produce really nice images with shallow depth of field, they’re definitely not known for their sharpness. Also, issues with aliasing and noise at high ISOs can give less-than-stellar results. But, with PHYX’s Cleaner 2.0, those problems can cease to exist. Aliasing, banding, blocky chroma channels, comb-artifacts, noise, not-quite-sharp images… Sound like...

What to watch out for with FCPX

January 17, 2013, 12:53 PM

http://www.videoguys.com/Blog/E/What+to+watch+out+...

It's a Paradigm Shift. Use it as Such.A paradigm shift is a completely new way of looking at something. FCPX is a paradigm shift in non-linear editing. You have to go into it with that in mind. If you try to force FCPX to edit like you did in FCP7, 1) you may get frustrated, and 2) you'll miss out on some of the power of the new paradigm.

Since the 1990s when computers caught up to the speed and storage necessary to do editing, we have been on a whirlwind of ever-changing software and hardware developments.

How reliant are we on video hosting sites...

A frustrating day. We have two stories to publish and yes they both feature Vimeo videos. As the Vimeo webpages are currently down and now embedded videos don't work, we wonder how reliant we are on video hosting sites.

Archive in today’s digital age

With each new technology, we seem to be going to media with shorter and shorter storage lives. From the age of film and vinyl records which had a very long life; to tape with still a fair life; to DVD/CD/BluRay with about 17 years; to hard disks with about 4 years.

Extreme Colour Grading

We can't bring you every showreel that we see here at RedShark. Many of them are amazing but, honestly, that's what YouTube is for. But what we do like to do is bring you clips that illustrate a point that we think is important, and this one does it nicely.
