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

... This year several of the finalists for the visual-effects Oscar nomination are pushing the boundaries of f/x lighting, blurring the lines between “practical” and “digital” effects, and along the way, using that lighting to integrate actors with vfx in ways that could only have been dreamed of before.

Avid FrameFlex is a new feature in Media Composer v7 that allows for image re-framing. The FrameFlex parameters go back to the original high resolution master using more pixels to create the new frame rather than resizing an HD frame to the new size.

In Saving Mr. Banks John Lee Hancock interprets the world of author P.L. Travers (Emma Thompson), telling the story behind bringing the iconic novel, Mary Poppins and its titular character to the screen. Working from the script by Kelly Marcel, Hancock further developed the story with the writer as he prepared to direct the film. The original idea for the movie came from a portion of the screenplay on the life of P.L. Travers written by Australian scribe, Sue Smith.
