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

Designing A Movie For Sound

This is an article I wrote in the mid 1990’s. It’s a plea for sound to be taken as seriously as visuals in film storytelling. Most directors say they care deeply about sound, but almost none of them spend even 10% as much time working on sound as they spend working on the visual aspect of their films.

American Gods Viking Scene VFX

May 3, 2017, 05:03 AM

https://www.thrillist.com/entertainment/nation/ame...

A brutal ballet of limbs and blood, a violent, last ditch effort from Leif Erikson and his band of vikings to appease the wind god, opens Starz's new fantasy series, American Gods. And what an opening it is, with slow-motion scenes of entrail-littered sacrifice, hinting at the savage nature of an incoming war waging between Old Gods and New Gods in Hannibal creator Bryan Fuller's adaption of the wildly popular Neil Gaiman novel.

Quite the treat for you kids today. We have the very genial and mucho loved creator of The Monk and The Fish (1994), Father and Daughter (2000) and that little feature that could, called The Red Turtle. Michael agreed to meet with me for a 10km run on the streets of Utrecht at 10pm on a Sunday evening in March. Along the way I asked pertinent questions.
