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

As far as VFX challenges go, the latest Chemical Brothers promo Wide Open (feat. Beck) is a doozy - a woman dances around a warehouse space as parts of her body are revealed as 3D-printed lattice constructions - in one four and a half minute shot.

Often, when we talk about cutting in film, we think about cutting as a way to expand time (using lots of cuts to stretch out an important event) or contract time (cutting to skip over lengthy, boring unnecessary moments in the story).

Industrial Light & Magic: The Visual Effects of Brad Bird’s ‘Tomorrowland’ – Here we revisit the effects work that ILM’s global team contributed to the film. As the first-ever film finished and released in 4K high dynamic range, the work on the film presented numerous challenges not the least of which was creating the city of Tomorrowland itself in a manner that would match into a much broader palette provided by the Dolby Vision HDR format.
