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

John Meyer’s influence on the way audiences hear sound spans four decades, dating back to 1967 when he assembled a high-fidelity bass guitar amplification system for The Steve Miller Band’s appearance at the legendary Monterey Pop Festival. Since then, John Meyer and his company Meyer Sound have introduced many innovations that have changed the face of sound reproduction, especially in the area of live sound, where he has brought loudspeaker linearity, consistency, and reliability to a whole...

In a recent interview with Yahoo! Mark Russell discussed his passion for storytelling, and how it relates to visual effects. He shapes backgrounds in a natural way — story over spectacle. For instance in A Most Violent Year he discussed it was all about dirtying up the city, adding gritty texture and graffiti. And when it came to showing the Manhattan skyline from Queens, it had to be edited to fit. Russell describes the process...

The picture editors of the hot-button movie The Interview — the cause célèbre of the just-passed holiday season — say that, contrary to popular perception, they were not forced to make changes to the film in the cutting room for political reasons before its limited release in theatres and by digital video-on-demand in late December.
