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

There’s an interesting read on movie punch sounds over at The Wall Street Journal. In the article, author Don Steinberg talks to sound designers Odin Benitez, Leslie Shatz, Scott Gershin, Mark Mangini, John Morris and Wylie Stateman about how punch sounds are created, and how they’ve evolved. In relation to the article he has also compiled a playlist of punch sounds from no less than 12 movies.

Mid-Life Crisis? Maybe. A web designer needs a video in his website and the project changed his life. Gregory Bradley came to this industry late in life. Post 9/11 he was on the missing to make some changes in his life, and he probably never thought it would bring him here.

Solid state drives (SSDs) have greatly increased the efficiency of laptops and hybrids since they’ve been introduced. By doing away with the moving parts found in mechanical drives, thereby increasing read/write access and throughput, SSDs improve speed, boot-up, and wake-up times as well.
