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

“Buthiyulla manitharellam vetri kanbathillai… Vetri petra manitherallam buthisaaliyillai…” (All those who are intelligent are not successful, All those who succeed need not be intelligent) B. Lenin, renowned film editor and director, sings a popular old Tamil number. “I like music. I stayed away from school because I hated mathematics. I went for music classes only to realise that even music has mathematical notations. It was an eye opener for me,” he laughs.

Pre-organizing your media is one of those small steps that makes your post workflow significantly less painful. As we covered back in March, Kyno is a tool built from the ground up with its only goal in mind being making that media organization process as easy as possible. With the new release of version 1.3, Kyno has expanded its keyboard shortcut tools and deepened its Premiere functionality to make it the go to organizational tool for Premiere filmmakers.

By now, I’m going to assume that you’re well-versed in the email etiquette basics. You know, things like always including a subject line and resisting the temptation to CC every single warm body in your office. I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt here. Still, it’s likely your messages aren’t completely flawless.

After nearly a year's wait, Name That Editor is back with Episode 2 of everyone's favourite post-production game show. (sort of) Guess which editor cut all these films before the montage is up!

Bueller… Bueller? Didn't think so. More often than not, people strive to work better, not just harder or more often. And when you don't take the time to plan ahead and implement process into your workflows, it's easy for something to get lost in the shuffle.

When you reach the end credits of a film, you’ll see an editor’s name right up there with the directors and the stars of the movie. You’ll also see an editor’s name at the beginning credits as well. But why aren’t editors more recognized? The ones who get all the attention and press are the directors, actors, producers, and writers. Yet rarely do we ever recognize or even know the name of the editors of films.

I’m a veritable sci-fi/fantasy geek and “blerd” (Google it) who names his hard drives after majestic locales and magical creatures from Lord of the Rings. So imagine my delight when I learned I would have the opportunity to interview John Gilbert. No, I’m not talking about the early 20th-century American actor/director made famous during the silent film era. He’s dead. I’m talking about the Oscar-winning Kiwi editor of 2016’s Hacksaw Ridge (who was first nominated for the prestigio...
