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

The Guy Who Helped Define Tim & Eric’s Editing S

An owl with bat-like features sounds like somebody's nightmare, but it's a fairly representative resident of the Tim and Eric universe. The B'owl made an early appearance on Awesome Show, the pair's deadpan-demented sketch series, and helped set the tone for what will likely prove to be this generation's Monty Python.

Thelma Schoonmaker Talks 'Tales of Hoffmann' Resto

Decades ago, when Martin Scorsese and Thelma Schoonmaker were cutting Scorsese’s legendary film Raging Bull, he watched a 16mm print of The Red Shoes director Michael Powell‘s film The Tales of Hoffmann over and over again. Suddenly, in the middle of the edit, his assistant came in and said, “The Museum of Modern Art needs the print back.” Irritated, Scorsese asked why.
