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

isney’s remake of Pete’s Dragon hits cinemas this weekend, and with it comes a new take on the mythical creature that has long dominated our movie and TV screens. For over half a century, effects artists have labored to design, build, and animate the majestic beast, and audiences have clamored to witness such a diverse range of characters being brought to life, in so many diverse ways. We’ve rounded up some of the best dragons in movie and TV history and how they were made.

More and more, films that are currently in production are working alongside with their marketing teams to establish a strategy months in advance of its release. That means that there’s more time to explore several options when crafting a trailer, but the workload also becomes heavier, and the stakes become higher. Avid Media Composer editors Christian Jhonson and Patricio Hoter (The Jungle Book, The Last Witch Hunter, Green Room, Titanic 3D, and more) explore this evolving artform.

STAR TREK BEYOND’s dramatic space battles are impressive CG sequences orchestrated by visual effects studio Double Negative. Whereas purely digital shots can often be subject to the ‘CG curse’ and look too clean and unrealistic, Double Negative strived to dirty the frame and the camera moves and fit into new franchise director Justin Lin’s action aesthetic.
