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

Day two and three of IBC were spent at Spaces, close to the RAI. We were there for the FCPX Tour event. If you didn't go, you missed one of the most important FCPX events to happen this year.

You don’t need more signs that virtual reality has captured the attention of the established media world. But here’s another one anyway: Veteran media exec George Kliavkoff is leaving Hearst to run Jaunt, a virtual reality startup.

Ultimatte and Fairlight are now owned by Blackmagic. Ultimatte makes broadcast-quality, realtime blue- and greenscreen removal hardware that is used in studios to seamlessly composite reporters and talk show hosts into virtual sets.

These projections are a reflection of Scott Feinberg's personal impressions (from advance screenings), publicly available information (release dates, genres, talent rosters and teasers/trailers often offer valuable clues), historical considerations (how other films with similar pedigrees have resonated), precursor awards (some awards groups have historically correlated with the Academy more than others) and consultations with industry insiders (including fellow members of the press, awards strat...

There might have been some fuzzy math in Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences president Cheryl Boone Isaacs’ Saturday morning conversation with Toronto festival artistic director Cameron Bailey. Asked by how much she planned to grow the number of women and diverse ethnic groups under the Academy’s much-discussed A2020 initiative, Boone Isaacs said she hoped to “increase inclusion by 50 percent.” Back in January, an academy statement said it would “commit to doubling the number of ...
