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

MC6 Lesson 32: Building Custom Transitions

http://library.creativecow.net/mcauliffe_kevin/Avi...

In this lesson, Kevin P McAuliffe shows you how to start to create advanced effects inside of MC/Symphony by building some custom transitions. Not only does he show you how to create them, but he also shows you quick ways to apply them to multiple edits, as well as save them, to be used in any production you might be working on.

Tim Squyres, Life of Pi

http://community.avid.com/blogs/theroughcut/archiv...

In this episode of The Rough Cut, I sit down with editor Tim Squyres on stage at the 2012 Boston SuperMeetUp. Tim, having just finished editing Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" the Monday prior, has lots to share about shooting and editing in 3D, the role of the assistant editor on feature films, and his approach to cutting documentaries vs. narrative films. All that and more on this edition of The Rough Cut.

Are Software Certifications a Waste of Time?

November 29, 2012, 10:13 PM

http://blogs.creativecow.net/blog/12119/are-softwa...

Occasionally I'll find myself in a discussion about FCP or Avid or Adobe certifications, typically on Twitter because where else do I ever talk to anyone? Usually a younger editor is asking about a specific certification, and a dozen industry vets jump in and go on and on about how certification is a complete waste of time and money, and no one should ever under any circumstances get a certification.

Red Giant Welcomes Back Avid Media Composer Users

November 29, 2012, 03:02 PM

http://www.videoguys.com/Blog/E/Red+Giant+Welcomes...

After Red Giant took over PluralEyes, the popular syncing software, it wasn't clear what they would do with the program or how they would support it. With the newest software update, 3.1, it looks like they are committed to making it as easy to use as possible, and bringing it to as many computers as possible. While Windows support will be coming in version 3.2, the current update addresses a few of the remaining concerns for current users...
