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

Perhaps the most notable bit of trivia about The Hateful Eight—that has nothing to do with the script—is that it’s the first Quentin Tarantino film that features an original score. With the director’s first two features, Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, he favored using rock and roll tracks that played on the radios or loudspeakers that the characters were listening to. Many of these needle drop moments were instantly iconic, such as the “Stuck in the Middle with You” torture scene i...

In what started as a stage play written by Charlie Kaufman, the stop-motion animated feature Anomalisa took over two years to finish before its Dec. 30 release date – even a successful Kickstarter campaign encouraged it to see the light of day. The post Contenders – Sound Editor and Mixers Christopher Aud and Aaron Glascock, Anomalisa appeared first on Below the Line.

Virtual reality is incomplete without immersive audio. Even though you might be able to strap on a headset and be visually transported, the absence of 3D audio can quickly break your illusion. With stores getting ready to stock VR headsets this year, the need for an audio experience that can match, and even enhance, the visuals is more pressing than ever. Today at CES, Sennheiser announced AMBEO, a 3D audio technology that promises to change the way audio is captured and reproduced.

In “The Revenant”, Oscar winning director Alejandro G. Inarritu tackles the tale of Hugh Glass, a trapper and a guide of the rough American frontier, in the early 1800’s. An epic story of man vs. wild and also man vs. man, a brutal yet majestic tale of survival and revenge. Alejandro is no stranger to difficult and unsettling portraits of the human condition. Past films like “21 Grams”, “Babel” and last year’s stunning “Birdman" show a commitment to a unique storytelling o...
