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

Absurdity of Pigeonholing Across Mediums

Since starting this blog last year I’ve mostly stayed away from writing product reviews, compression tests, opinion pieces, etc. There are more than enough editing blogs out there that do a much finer job on a more regular basis than I could ever hope to. Every once in a while, though...

Editing on the Iphone

There’s another entry into the iPhone video editing app category that has just hit the iTunes app store in the last day or so. VeriCorder Technology’s 1st Video (which I previewed here thanks to HandHeld Hollywood just after NAB) aims to one up the previous king of iPhone video editors, ReelDirector, by providing a bit more functionality and moving it beyond a novelty or a toy.

Thanks to our alert viewers who noticed that our videos in our comedy section went down. It seems Youtube's new video look has affected the embedded code. We've switched it and are back up!

Budgeting for Editing Means Understanding Process

I expected this book to be just a bunch of budget forms with boring explanations. Was I off the mark! It’s a 465-page handbook that educates moviemakers on what happens in each stage of a project, explaining how to anticipate a film so that the process runs as smoothly as possible. Veteran producer...

Worlds First Iphone App for Editing

Other editors may let you string together a few clips. 1st Video allows users to create professional quality news items, movies or podcasts, with multi-track audio, on an iPhone 3GS device. The secret is VeriCorder's advanced audio /video editing software, which lets you seamlessly blend multitracksound with video clips from multiple recordings in a powerful but easy to learn, touch-based, non-destructive editor.

CS5 and HP Hardware is the Fast Line

During the recent National Association of Broadcasters show in Las Vegas, I had the opportunity to present Adobe Creative Suite 5 in the HP booth. I was very excited to get my hands on a fully loaded HP Z800 Workstation and test just how fast Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects CS5 would run...
