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

AES was an amazing experience. The launch of Pro Tools 9 was universally acclaimed and the news spread around the world within minutes of our announcement. Central to that information blitz were the folks re-tweeting our news, who were competing for a chance to win a copy of Pro Tools. Tens of thousands of tweets and re-tweets later, we announced the winners of our contest: @Fiya_Juan, @Omnilimbo, @Raygproductions and @Onlinerock.

The holiday season is upon us, and you know what that means: Movies! In the coming weeks, it's likely you'll catch a movie created by Avid customers-if you haven't already. As evidenced below, Avid solutions play a key role in a number of high-profile, potential Oscar contender films being released this season. Whether comedy, drama, or "based on a true story," editors across the board are using Avid systems long after the cameras stop rolling.

The Documentary on How to Make a Documentary (or feature film or music video or epic home movie) I’ve known Guy Noffsinger for almost ten years now. We met after 9-11 at the Office of Naval Intelligence in DC and worked on a 60 minute "History Channel" type unclassified documentary on the History of Operational Intelligence. Not an easy subject to tackle! Guy took the reigns on this production working with the talent, narrator, and Executive Producer.
Moving From Tab to Tab in Final Cut Pro

A great addition to your Final Cut Pro workflow is to start using a keyboard shortcut to move from one tab to another. I recently added this to my workflow, and can't believe how often I use it. Becoming efficient at Final Cut Pro is all about little time savers like this one.
