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

Anatomy of a Book Trailer

I have formed a film company for creating book trailers called PictureYourBook. What is a book trailer? It’s a 1-3 minute video promo designed to tell readers what the book is about and intrigue them enough to buy it. Yes. Just as a movie trailer (a.k.a. a movie preview) lets an audience know about a […]

Why do companies do this?

November 26, 2014, 09:48 PM

http://www.redsharknews.com/business/item/2197-why...

Why do companies do this? Why do they risk their stellar repletion by creating technology and design hybrids that position style over function? It's happened before. Vertu has a mobile phone that looks like a bejewelled throwback to the late nineties, costs ("starts from") £9,600 / $15,100 / €12,120 and comes with "exclusive ring tones" performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, specially composed for you, Vertu's customer. Honestly, I'm not making this up.     Was Hasse...

The Art of Stop Motion

I've always enjoyed stop motion, from my elementary school days watching "Gumbi" on the TV, to sitting in my darkened bedroom with an 8mm projector running a print of the 1925 silent Lost World (from Blackhawk Films!) over and over.

Animation Roundtable and Sequels are Killing the I

November 26, 2014, 02:54 PM

We have already had the writers, the studio executives, and the actresses Oscar roundtables from The Hollywood Reporter. Today, I bring you a discussion about films that have not gotten much of say in the previous ones: animated films. I thought this was a pretty down year for animated films. Even the very popular and well regarded ones like The Lego Movie did nothing for me. That does not mean the creators talking is not interesting, and this roundtable features directors and producers of some ...
