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

Visual effects pros reveal how they brought the Twin Towers back to New York in 'Looming Tower,' put a royal ship into the water for 'The Crown,' created a parade down the streets of Barcelona in 'Genius,' conjured a psychic battle in 'Legion' and forged a 'Star Trek'-like universe in 'Black Mirror.'

Adobe is working on a new video-editing product called Project Rush that brings three tools -- Premiere Pro, Audition and After Effects -- together in one place. With Project Rush, you'll be able to edit the color of your videos, improve the sound quality, build a title sequence, add some stock footage and publish it to whatever platform you'd like without having to leave Rush.

Ten to fifteen ago control surfaces used to cost a fair amount of money and there really wasn't that many low-cost solutions to choose from either. Of course, there were some affordable offering available back then such as the Digi 003, a couple of 8 fader devices from Mackie and Avid but these all cost upwards of $1,000, not exactly what we would consider these days to be low-cost or budget friendly. Luckily, times have changed. "Low-cost" small form factor control surfaces have come down in pr...

This season's most intense television scenes had to be tenderly crafted in the editing room. Whether it was the pivotal This Is Us episode that finally revealed the death at the center of the NBC drama's story, the chilling opening moments of The Handmaid's Tale's second season or the final episode of The Looming Tower that took viewers back to 9/11, each of these scenes required a sensitive touch when cutting the footage together in order to send viewers on the right emotional journey.

Travis Knight is one of the most highly-regarded animators working today. The acclaimed Kubo and the Two Strings director is also the President and CEO of Laika Studios. The stop-motion giant turned out instant classics like Coraline, The Boxtrolls, and ParaNorman. Above all else, Knight is an artist. He’s adept at transforming something inanimate — like the materials he builds his Laika figurines from — into something human. Paramount just released a glimpse into the magical way that Knig...
