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

Unlimited access to ad-free comedy — that’s what NBCUniversal is offering with Seeso, their subscription-based streaming service available online and via Roku or Amazon Fire TV. You can watch late night reruns of Jimmy Fallon, classic SNL episodes, or Monty Python films. But more importantly, you can watch original series, like The Cyanide & Happiness Show, an animated comedy that’s equal parts clever and crude. A comedy series where even the end credits provide comedic jewels (of the fami...

Sunday Sound Thought 38 – Sensory Interplay

September 18, 2016, 04:18 PM

http://designingsound.org/2016/09/sunday-sound-tho...

As the year continues, many of these posts will be philosophical in nature. Some will be in contradiction to previous postings. These are not intended as truths or assertions, they’re merely thoughts…ideas. Think of this as stream of consciousness over a wide span… For many years I was guilty of  believing that, and I’m not […]
