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

It can’t be stressed enough how closely Best Picture and Best Editing align at the Oscars. We all know the history. Even if Birdman still won without an editing nomination, that only proves once again that if they like a movie enough all stats go out the window.

When it came time to select a mixer for the first trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the core team behind the movie turned to Will Files. A longtime Dolby Atmos® mixer, Files has worked with Star Wars writer, director, and producer J.J. Abrams on films like Star Trek Into Darkness, and that résumé more than likely had something to do with him getting the nod to work on the biggest, and most secretive, project Abrams has undertaken to date.
