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

Since the 1980s, German-born composer Hans Zimmer has created some of the most unique and visionary scores, along the way racking up nine career Oscar nominations; he’s won only once, for 1995’s Disney classic, The Lion King.

Director/editor/VFX specialist Damien Christian D'Amico got tired of kowtowing to his client's notes and decided to break out and make his own movie CARROT, premiering at the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival on February 17th. The result is a non-stop trip down the rabbit hole of perhaps the most cryptic of all subjects: creativity itself.

What do LOTR, The Avengers, and Inception all have in common? That’s right. Special effects. But how often do women working in special effects get the credit they deserve?

The new MacBreak Studio episode is here and this week Mark Spencer shows Steve Martin from Ripple Training how to wrap paint strokes and particle emitters around text in 3D space using Apple Motion! And so in this latest tutorial you will see an animated light streak that appeared to move around both in front of behind a text layer.

Fanboys are sick and tired of too much CGI, we all know this, and it’s of course going to be a concern with the next Star Wars movie. No matter what, there’s going to have to be computer effects somewhere, but with JJ Abrams being a big fanboy himself, he’s got a good feel for what fans will want, and won’t want, in the next Star Wars flick.
