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

Review - Boris Continuum Complete 7 for AE

Everyone, whether you are a professional in the field of editing/vfx or just starting out, has heard of Boris FX. In a way, their plug-ins have defined effects work for editors for years. Anyone who purchases Media Composer gets a copy of BCC (always the previous years version), and anyone working in Final Cut Pro know’s the very familiar Boris 3D Title (an interface common across all of their text based effects).

POST PROD WEEK: POST 2 – SHOOT FOR THE EDIT
November 9, 2010, 03:18 PM
http://www.elskid.com/blog/post-prod-week-post-2-s...
You’ll hear this phrase from time to time muttered by knowing producers. Sounds ghastly, doesn’t it? So prosaic. Shooting is just so much sexier when it’s about beautiful images. On a side note, have you ever considered how brusque the lexicon of filmmaking is? We shoot, we cut, we clap, we call action – man’s work – hoohah! Unfortunately...

Editing TV’s 'The Mentalist'

https://www.editorsguild.com/FromTheGuild.cfm?From...
"It’s all about the clues, what Patrick Jane sees or senses, and the journey to his conclusions," says The Mentalist picture editor David Ekstrom, who cuts the CBS series with Chris Cibelli, Glenn Farr and Jimmy Gadd. "The Mentalist differs from other shows that I’ve cut in recent years in that the pace of the show is driven by the process that our lead character uses to solve the crime," Ekstrom continues. "The exposition that would typically be on camera often takes place while he is...
