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
Bertrand Serlet (MacOS X developer) leaving Apple

Bertrand Serlet joined Apple in 1997 and was responsible for how MacOS X looks, works and feels. I believe it will be a great loss for Apple without such senior vice president of Mac Software Engineering. I really enjoyed watching him on stage during Steve's keynotes and I do enjoy working with MacOS X every day of my life - I really can't imagine anything else. Sources at Reutes say that Mr. Serlet wants to focus on science rather than products.

In this post I am going to talk about an important principle of editing. It’s an often overlooked principle, the principle of spatial relation. Spatial relation is something your brain has been processing since you were a baby.

Some of you may be wondering whether I’m planning an update to "Avid Agility" for Media Composer 5.5. The answer is yes. It’ll be a relatively minor update, with changes confined to the new features (mainly Find, PhraseFind, the Transition Tool and Legacy/Classic Trim Mode).
