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

Well, it has been just over a month since Adobe was hacked and I thought that things may have died down enough to take a broader look at how well Adobe has been doing since it started to transform its business model with the launch of Creative Cloud and its decision to stop offering perpetual licenses. Customer Adoption and Business Performance During its Q3 2013 conference call, Adobe shared some stats on the adoption of Creative Cloud. It currently has over 1 million paid creative clo...

Yesterday I came across 2 posts about nightmare clients. The first, from ReelSEO, features a selection of quotes on video production from the site clients from hell. Check the source for all of them, but here are a couple of gems. The second post comes from StarWipe MyAss and features an editor being torn apart by the worst client imaginable. Everything is extremely personal, and none of the rant is about the specifics of the work. While both of these posts are pretty funny and a ...

Here’s how the human eye works. Light enters a hole in the front, passes through a lens and is focused on a light-sensitive surface at the back – the retina. A camera works in much the same way, but instead of a retina it uses either a charge-coupled device or a strip of film.
