To The Aotg.com Community,

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
Aotg.com Founder

LYON – Martin Scorsese has influenced generations of new filmmakers. But who and what films influenced Scorsese?

Nobody Knows What The Hell They Are Doing

October 1, 2014, 09:35 AM

http://99u.com/articles/32985/nobody-knows-what-th...

There’s an old puzzle that philosophers like to ponder: how could you ever be certain that anyone else has a mind at all? The truth is that you can’t. Ultimately, even our closest relatives—people we’ve known for decades, or who gave birth to us, or vice versa—are closed books: you’ll never get direct access to their thoughts or emotions. It’s the sort of terrifying realization that might trigger an existential meltdown in the sanest of us. Yet when it comes to creativity, it’s a...

'Frankenbiting' scares up reality controversy

September 30, 2014, 04:40 AM

http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2005-07-21/news...

The word is "frankenbiting," and it's one of those delicious terms of art in the reality TV trade that means exactly what it implies: A producer on a show decides he or she doesn't like the way a particular taped interview went with a contestant, so "improvements" are made. A snip here, a snip there, a little highly selective editing, and--presto!--the contestant says something he didn't actually say.

Frankenbyting is a popular tool used by Reality TV editors to add drama to their programming. In the same way that scripted TV producers write dramatic dialogue for their characters, reality TV producers use frankenbyting to create dramatic situations by rearranging the sequence of events and dialogue. Frankenbyting occurs in two general styles.

Grab Some Popcorn, Settle Down, Start Debating

Each of the world’s major film festivals has a special flavor and purpose. Some arrange the crown jewels of world cinema in a fancy European setting. Others line up horses for the Oscar race or parade indie darlings through the snow. The New York Film Festival, whose 52nd edition begins on Friday, takes its name and inspiration from the world capital of talk, and its clear and consistent ambition has been to start as many arguments as possible.
