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

You know when you move some furniture around there’s always a noticeably clean patch of carpet where the furniture used to be? That’s because dirt is everywhere, and it takes some serious elbow-grease to get anything as perfectly clean as most CG renders look.

This is an interesting moment to be a Disney observer. Remember that Walt once mined the most peculiar material, resulting in abstract weirdness in his collaborations with Ub Iwerks. The reason it’s a joy to watch Silly Symphonies is they are gloriously bizarre. A spine being played like a xylophone? Sure, and the boneyard of Skeleton Dance isn’t the half of it.

... "If I didn't turn Disney Animation around quickly … there was a drumbeat that was going to get louder and louder in terms of whether I was worthy of the job and how long I would last and all those things," Iger recalled confiding to his wife, journalist Willow Bay. "So I knew that the pressure was on."...

... Disney’s success stems, not from an immunity to occasional flops, but from an unmatched ability to wring profits from winners. Disney has far more deals with merchandise companies than its rivals -- 37% more than Viacom, 56% more than Time Warner, and seven times as many as DreamWorks Animation SKG, according to a tally last year by investment bank Sterne Agee.
