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

After watching this tutorial, you'll have the knowledge necessary to not only use the built in templates in Final Cut Pro to create some cool looking text animations, but you'll also know how to create your own text templates and effects in Motion and share them with your friends, sell them online, or just use them in your next project.

While editors wait for the next big Final Cut Pro X update, I hope the Apple ProApps team will implement some of the ideas in their ‘structure editing’ patent. Here’s my old writeup of the patent they applied for in 2009 on fcp.co: Most people think that the editor’s job is ‘to cut out the bad bits’ in individual scenes. Many are surprised to discover that editors commonly change and improve storytelling by changing story structure. As many film and TV makers consider that str...

The name of patent 9,240,215 may be ‘Editing operations facilitated by metadata,’ but it is about applying effects to roles in Final Cut Pro X: For example, several clips may be assigned one audio role of "Dialog", "Music", or "SFX". A process then provides one or more user interface controls. These user interface controls are also associated with the tagged clips. That is, the user interface controls are associated so that these controls can be used to display or modify prope...

As a producer, I am not much of an editor myself. I can string a few shots together and tell a simple story, and I know that not all editors are created equal. Over the last 15 years working as a producer and running a production company, I have found that most of the editors I have worked with can be easily be cast as one of four types.
