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

Hey guys! I am about to launch Mixing In REAPER Vol 2. I’ve had a lot of requests for a follow up to MIRV1 and I’ve got a great song for it. You can read a bit more about it on the sales page, but you can’t buy it until March 1st, or maybe a little earlier if you’re on the email list.

This Saturday is the MPSE Golden Reel awards, which recognizes the hard work that sound editors have put into film and television over the past year.

2015 WAS A great year for unconventional film soundtracks. Disasterpiece’s 80’s horror-influenced score for It Follows, Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow’s sparse compositions for Ex Machina, and Junkie XL’s adrenaline-soaked noisewall for Mad Max: Fury Road offer beautiful, progressive examples of what constitutes a soundtrack.
