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
Export via Sorensen Squeeze 6 from FCP

Just the other day I needed to export mp3 audio files from several long Final Cut Pro timelines to send to a client for review. There was no reason to send video and they wanted to get small audio files that didn’t have to be of great quality attached to an email. What better format than mp3! With that I remembered that Sorenson Squeeze 6 (now at version 6.5)

All the news that’s fit to edit

News editors are part of NABET (National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians). The union has been fighting a losing war with the networks and there have been many changes for the worse. The editor used to choose the footage, now the writer picks the clips and indicates them on the script. The upshot? Many editors (and others) have broadened their scope and become hyphenates. Common hyphenate jobs are: photographer-editor a.k.a....

The Perfect Match Event

ozDocs came through with an excellent session on the relationship between editors and the rest of the creative team, in which the cutters came from the shadows with a few hard-won home truths. Tina Kaufman was enchanted. We all know the scene. The prizewinning director at the awards night gratefully thanks the editor and the wonderful partnership they have formed in the cutting room to craft the winning documentary. And perhaps it has happened this way; after all, it has often been said that...
Online Tools

In my general computing use, as an editor and general geek, there’s a bunch on online tools I use a lot for various things. I thought I’d mention a few here for anyone who has some of the same needs as I do. These are in no particular order, and are just the ones that have come to mind as I’ve been putting the list together.

Review: Avid Media Composer 5
October 5, 2010, 01:43 PM
http://www.studiodaily.com/studiomonthly/currentis...
I can say without reservation that Avid Media Composer 5 is an upgrade that truly deserves the "Hot" rating from our product review ranking index. Media Composer has been one of the top nonlinear editors since the existence of NLEs. In fact, it pretty much jump-stared the whole NLE revolution. Version 5 contains a ton of new features (several quite earth-shattering, if you're a longtime Avid editor) that answered many previous customer requests and complaints.
