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

The Super Bowl spot from Sunday showed off some of the great, real action from the video game adaptation Need for Speed. Even if the full theatrical trailer showcased a lot of melodrama and cheesy dialogue, we at least now this film will look pretty on the big screen and have some spectacular racing sequences with big crashes.

The new Mac Pro is pretty impressive as a piece of industrial design, and I mean that for inside and out. But beyond that, as a dedicated Final Cut Pro workstation (which is how Apple likes to demonstrate it) it's amazing.

We have covered many plugins for visual content, but not many for audio, so good to see that SmartSound has just released a Sonicfire Pro Plugin. Is this the way to choose and licence music for your productions?

Lav mics (or lavalier or lapel, take your pick) are a very popular tool in filmmaking. Their small form factor enables you to get into discreet positions, mostly used for positioning on your talent.

For actors and filmmakers nominated for an Academy Award®, the Oscars® ceremony brings moments of high tension as the presenters introduce their category, fumble with the envelope, and finally announce a winner. But for the sound crew that works the show at the Dolby Theatre—as Dolby’s Steve Venezia has for 12 years—the whole night is filled with tension, as he listens for glitchy microphones, too-long speeches, unpredictable hosts, and even the occasional profanity during one of the mos...
