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

NAB 2019 is here and Adobe just announced the latest updates to Creative Cloud. One of the biggest features is the addition of Content-Aware Fill to After Effects. That’s right—you can now use the popular Photoshop feature on videos.

With tight production and delivery schedules, the ability to repair or re-purpose a shot can make a big difference. First introduced and evolved in Photoshop, Content-Aware Fill for Video is now available to editors and visual effects artists allowing you to remove unwanted elements from video clips, such as production equipment, boom microphones, vehicles, signs, logos, or special effects wires that have inadvertently been included in a shot.

We are blessed to be able to make a living doing something creative. But having to be creative on the spot is not always an easy thing. Sometimes you get blocked, stuck or just burnt out. It happens to every creative person. We have all heard of writer’s block, but the same thing happens with other artistic disciplines too. One of the things about editing is it can be difficult at times to “make it work.” So how do I go about dealing with the block or “hitting the wall” creatively?

Bohemian Rhapsody editor John Ottman received quite a bit of backlash after the film took home the Academy Award for Best Film Editing. Now, the Oscar-winning editor has addressed the viral mocking over one specific scene, and it looks like he just might agree with the fans on this one.

Bohemian Rhapsody has found incredible success as the highest-earning music biopic worldwide, and as a four-time Oscar winner. The movie centering around Queen’s history as a band swept most of the technical categories at the Academy Awards, including Best Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, and Film Editing. The latter has been most heavily criticized online for its win, especially for the cut of the band’s first meeting with manager John Reid, which became a viral example of Oscar "injustice" on ...
