To The Aotg.com Community,

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

There are some things you learn further down your motion graphics journey that you probably wished you would’ve known from the beginning. For me, I wish I could get back the full year of using After Effects that I had before I found out about animation curves.

The sound of VR at Sundance and Slamdance

By Luke Allen If last year’s annual Park City film and cultural meet-up was where VR filmmaking first dipped its toes in the perverbial water, count 2016’s edition as its full on coming out party. With over 30 VR pieces as official selections at Sundance’s New Frontier sub-festival, and even more content debuting at Slamdance and elsewhere, festival-goers this year can barely take two steps down Main Street without being reminded of the format’s ubiquitous presence. When I first st...

By Jennifer Walden Director Quentin Tarantino’s go-to supervising sound editor Wylie Stateman, of Twenty Four Seven Sound reveals the secret sauce of Tarantino’s cinematic style: “He is truly an aural enthusiast and very much a sculptor of his cinema through the use of sound and music.” That applies to dialogue as well, as Tarantino even casts actors with interesting voices. “Sound is a major contributor to Quentin’s films and often the secret sauce that makes the meal just ge...
