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

How to Score, Indie Style

Film is obviously a visual medium. Elements from the art direction, to the specificity of camera angles, to wardrobe, amalgamate to establish tone and elicit emotion from an audience. What is less apparent, yet equally influential in creating texture and mood of a piece, are the sound design and the score.

K-Tek’s Shockmount Review

October 23, 2013, 03:56 AM

http://filmmakeriq.com/2013/10/k-teks-shockmount-d...

Nautilus’ form is inspired by the logarithmic spiral, a design found in nature in objects like hurricanes, spiral galaxies and the chambered nautilus, a conch-like shellfish that’s widely admired for its graceful symmetry. The Nautilus spiral was chosen over a host of other natural and artificial designs after a year of intensive R&D by the K-Tek design team. K-Tek engineers had to tighten up the curve from the logarithmic spiral they started with in order to make it fit into K-Tek’s upcom...

A look at the history of audio post production

By Ron DiCesare I have been working in audio post production for nearly 25 years and I would consider myself a very knowledgeable audio professional. But I was surprised to find out how little I actually knew about the history of audio post production. Over the past 25 years or so, I have experienced many […]

If there were a lifetime achievement award for audio editing software, Sound Forge would be the favored candidate. It’s probably the oldest of the professional-grade audio editors, tracing its roots all the way back to Windows 3.x. Despite a few … more »

2014 Oscar Predictions: Best Sound Editing

October 21, 2013, 09:30 AM

http://www.indiewire.com/article/2014-oscar-predic...

Here's our take on the best sound editing race. "Gravity" is absolutely the film to beat here (and is probably the one category I'd call right now), though there's plenty of competition from summer blockbuster fare and fall Oscar hopefuls alike, including "Captain Phillips," "Rush," "All Is Lost," "Man of Steel" and "Pacific Rim."
