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

Wes Anderson just won a Golden Globe for The Grand Budapest Hotel. But did you know he also dabbled in commercials, directing some great ads in his typical, charmingly bizarre Wes Anderson style?

Joe Johnston is considered to be the "father" of Boba Fett. Working along side Ralph McQuarrie, Johnston designed dozens of variations of the Boba Fett costume, slowly refining the character from a look similar to the stormtroopers seen in Star Wars to its own unique character.

Many of Christopher Nolan's films deal with fantastical elements, but he likes to ground things in reality as much as possible, both on-screen and on-set. In the video below, he talks about how he keeps things as real as possible for the actors and the audience:
