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

As part of a tour at Outpost Digital back in 2007, Evan Schechtman gave neophyte editors a tour of Outpost Digital and warned us about some of what we'd be facing in the coming years.

Blancanieves –a Spanish, black and white, silent film– is an original version of the Grimm Brothers fairy tale ‘Snow White’. The film crew has managed to push through the idea of Pablo Berger, director, and screenwriter with a laudable result. Aesthetically, this film redeems black and white cinema, to a certain extent, but that is only a part.

This week we had a tough time, our Analytics had one list of popular posts while the voting had totally different list of popular posts. Well, we've chosen a mix between the two.

Like a musician hears music, a Colorist needs to see color. It’s just that simple. You can watch all the tutorials, and learn all the software and hardware that is available. But at the end of the day, if you can’t see color then it is all for nothing.

In post-World War II streets overflowing with inky shadows, greed, and hapless bureaucracy, pulp novelist Holly Martins (the brilliant Joseph Cotten) arrives in Vienna and promptly gets himself wrapped up in a plot that would rival any of his own novels when he finds that his friend, Harry Lime (Orson Welles at his most charismatic) has died.

The first ever edits were made accidentally, by cameraman stopping and starting early hand-cranked film cameras. Gradually it was realised that these “cuts” could be used to join shots together to tell a story, and the movies were born.

Jay Ferguson, the director/Producer of Guidestones, got me to chat about editing the first season. He is hard at work between award shows ceremonies and writting at preproduction of season 2 of Guidestones. Not sure how you put even more twist and turns but Good Luck there Mr. Ferguson, Good LUCK.

Tim Squyres, who was just nominated for an Academy Award for his work on Life of Pi, got hooked on film when he took an introductory film course at Cornell University in upstate New York. Squyres talks to Creative COW about the challenges of editing Ang Lee's first digitally shot feature film, which was also a stereoscopic 3D release.
