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

When I think back to the days of editing tape to tape you had to both visualize how the series of shots were going to edit, but you also had to keep in mind and plan the current, previous and next edits at once. It was hard to go back and “trim” an edit! It […]

By Karen Moltenbrey Consistency is important when editing series. Initially, the editor may collaborate with the director and DP on the style of the show, and once it is set, the focus is on supporting that direction, reflecting the essence and feel of the show and the performance of the characters. However, Continue reading → June 20, 2019 The post Editing for Episodic Television appeared first on postPerspective.

I was recently interviewing the team from Milk VFX about their work on Good Omens when they mentioned a tool called Nexture from French-based Cronobo VFX. It was being used to help the team achieve detailed texture maps for a couple of their CG characters. Curious, I asked Cronobo for more information about what Nexture was and what it can do.
