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

and washing, social distancing, remote working, and staying at home unless absolutely necessary — this is our current reality in the COVID-19 pandemic. But nearly a decade ago, it’s a scenario that director Steven Soderbergh and writer Scott Z. Burns presented in Contagion (2011), which is considered to be one of the most scientifically accurate pandemic films out there.

I first met Daniel Scalzo in Chicago when he attended my ICA training class in 2018. As a DP he had fantastic tour stories of working with notable artists like Pearl Jam, Peter Gabriel, Sting and Florence and the Machine. My parting comment was if you ever get down to Australia on a tour I’d love to see your workflow.

When No Time To Die’s now-record-breaking theme song was announced as being co-written and sung by hit recording artist Billie Eilish, the world was rather surprised. As the youngest person to have ever crafted a James Bond theme song, it was an even greater surprise that she said she’d been wanting to do this job for some time now. But between her enthusiasm and musical chops, composer Hans Zimmer was convinced that she absolutely had to have the gig.
