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

Our lead editor requested that some tracks be converted from dual mono to stereo tracks.

In part 2 of this tutorial (see part 1 here), I’ll show you how to adjust color using a Color Balance Adjustment Layer and Color Lookup Adjustment Layer. If you had trouble understanding how Curves work, then try creating a similar movie look effect using the Color Balance Adjustment Layer. It’s easier to use, and a bit more intuitive, but it does have some limitations. To start, you can disable all the previous Curves layers or start from scratch. 1. Create a Color Balance Adjustmen...

Legendary editor Anne V. Coates has won two and been nominated for five Oscars (including a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007). The nonagenarian editor refuses to use Avid; instead, Coates said she "has her own system" which was custom-made to her preferences—much like the one made for Thelma Schoonmaker—though she refuses to elaborate on the details.

PLUS: FREE PREMIERE PRO EFFECT PRESETS! "I like having to recreate the same effect on multiple clips in multiple projects." Said no editor ever. That's why Premiere Pro has effect presets so editors can save and re-use customized effects.
