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

Confession: I’ve watched “Glee” since its first episode in May 2009. I like the message of the show – acceptance – seeing GBLT characters as well as hetero-and metrosexual characters, and its often non-formulaic plots, issues, and nuances not to mention its musical numbers. As a member of Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (the […]

The first in a semi-regular series of articles from this Nice Shoes colorist. By Lenny Mastrandrea Recently, I read an interesting commentary by Keith Phipps at The Dissolve, regarding the ongoing dispute between film and digital aficionados. While being interviewed for his new feature, Mr. Turner, director Mike Leigh claimed that the aversion of directors like Quentin Tarantino to digital as a format for feature films has no justification at this point. Leigh chooses to embrace digital b...

For the visual effects industry, it’s been a tough couple of years. With the perfect storm of emerging digital technologies and overseas tax breaks have coupled to force many named FX hourses into bankruptcy, or to open their own satellite offices overseas, even with a non stop post production schedule, many visual effects artists are finding themselves overworked, under paid, or flat out out of work. How do they survive? Well, the old addage “evolve or die” is a large part of the equation...
