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

One of the biggest barriers standing in the way of mainstream adoption of VR tech is the problem of control. The latest hardware can produce experiences more immersive than ever before, but the effect is wasted if interacting with the world around you breaks that immersion. Fortunately, a new research project might just have the answer.

The visual effects team for The CW's The Flash does the impossible on a weekly basis: deliver near movie-quality special effects on a TV budget and schedule. And yet, despite the obstacles that may seem overwhelming at times to them, visual effects supervisor Armen Kevorkian and his team of artists and designers have never missed a deadline or had to cut something from an episode. That's the accomplishment Kevorkian is most proud of, and something his team never thought could be possible.
