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

After the FCPX Preview

The most interesting tid-bit to come out of the whole Final Cut Pro X preview at Tuesday night's SuperMeet came not during the hour long on-stage demo but rather it was during the time after as I walked around the SuperMeet expo and talked to a number of developers and fellow editors to get their reaction to FCP X.

When I summarized What I thought I knew about Final Cut Pro X, one item was that the Project format would change from being a Binary format to an XML-based format. Then I got a couple more data points that have led me to rethink that.

In this tutorial for the Premiere Pro Video Adrenaline series, Richard Harrington uses the Adobe Media Encoder to go from your finished sequence right to the web, blu-ray, or other outputs with a quick hand-off and jump back into your editing.

FilmLight's Baselight Plugin for FCP coming f

Baselight is a fast, creative non-linear grading system for commercials, television and film but the 80,000 dollar price tag puts it out of range of most users. Now it will change with FilmLight's Baselight Plugin which will make Baselight's advanced colour grading functionality accessible within the heart of Apple's Final Cut Pro.

Stuck at home last week? Watch our NAB coverage

April 17, 2011, 03:33 PM

http://www.freshdv.com/2011/04/nab-coverage-2.html

Last week the FreshDV team produced 32 videos from the NAB tradeshow floor, over 5 hours of content. This week we will also release two edited interviews that were previously broadcast live from the Teradek booth, one with Director Jason Wingrove, and one with Mitch Gross of Abel Cine. That will put us over 6 hours of edited content from NAB 2011. It's an extensive look at the tradeshow, and we encourage you to have a look and see what's new from the Expo.

If I Were Avid

Two big announcements at NAB could well have the execs at Avid worried. The most obvious one is a new awesome version of Apple's Final Cut Pro, the app which rocked Avid's world a decade ago, and the other – not quite as well reported – is Adobe's innovative pricing model for their CS suite.

Why the FCPX Pro Apps are important to Apple

As part of the Sneak Peek of Final Cut Pro X at the NAB 2011 Supermeet, Apple updated their user stats to 2 million customs (with 94 percent satisfaction). Now, my understanding is (with help from Oliver Peter) that this number includes Final Cut Express and the early individual sales of DVD Studio Pro and Motion.

Macworld - Final Cut Pro X stays for Pros

More than 1700 enthusiastic Final Cut users got some welcome news from Apple Tuesday night, when the company previewed Final Cut Pro X at the NAB 2011 Final Cut Pro Users Group SuperMeet. As one of those 1700 Final Cut users in attendance, I liked a lot of what I saw—though after having an evening to process the news, I still think a number of questions remain about the upcoming release.
