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

Technicolor Release USD99 Color Software

November 28, 2012, 02:43 PM

http://www.creativeplanetnetwork.com/digital-cinem...

Technicolor has released a USD99 color correction tool called CineStyle Color Assist. Says Vincent Laforet, "The beauty of this software is that it allows you to do only as much as you want, or need to. You can get quite far in terms of how far you push an image within this software – or you can do some very quick adjustments on set and send those over to your colorists with a sidecar file – if you're a DP on set for example. CineStyle Color Assist does all of this – but stops short of goi...

State of the art colour correction - in 1987!

November 24, 2012, 05:55 PM

I'm no fashion guru, but I do remember that in 1987 women wore shoulder pads the size of a small country and men rolled up their jacket sleeves as if it was almost an anatomical necessity. And I spent hours trying to recreate Jan Hammer's synthesised guitar sound from the Miami Vice theme on my Korg keyboard.

I've been spending a bit of time tidying up the blog, knowing that my Resolve 9 training title from Ripple Training is just around the corner. Well, no sooner did I finish then Steve Martin released a small tidbit on YouTube. This is just one small movie out of many hours of content, but it’ll give you an idea of what's coming.

Could We Split the Difference?

November 10, 2012, 06:49 PM

http://vanhurkman.com/wordpress/?p=2208

No matter who the client, or what the project, sooner or later you're going to be asked "can you split the difference?" between your interpretation of what the client wanted, and what they discovered they really wanted once they saw what you were up to.
