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

Got a great email this week from a young editor who asked a very honest question. “Does the editor have to get ALL the raw material from the shooter or should they expect the footage to be trimmed before receiving it?” In other words, should the shooter trim out all head / tails / extra […]

Audio practitioners in the music industry can appreciate when I say that half the battle in the production of good records and music is handling the relationship you have with the artist, and the relationship they have within their own ranks.

The story for this post is part 1 of a documentary I edited back in 2008. In this post I’ll share how I used music and the use of tight shots. Scott’s Story (the documentary) starts at [:11] on my YouTube channel. The editing in the beginning is pretty standard. I’m not trying to be […]

For many years home viewing television audiences have been frustrated by the loudness of the commercials. No matter how loud or soft the prior program was, the commercials always seemed to pop in louder - much louder. In the US it seems that the Congress (don’t worry, no...

When you are designing your marketing messaging, you need to clearly communicate the benefit (or even the service/product you’re providing) to those who have no idea what you do. In light of what I’ve observed on the exhibition floor at IBC, I may even need to reconsider our own “Taking the boring out of post” […]
