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

With today's ACE Awards (the "Eddie Awards") ready to deliver honors on outstanding film editing work done in 2011, we should get a lead on who might be a favorite at the Oscar's looming the following week. Since the SAG and Golden Globes do not recognize Editing as a category, the next two weeks are the pinnacle for recognizing the achievements and outstanding efforts from last year. You can also catch this year's nominees...

I am a firm believer that the footage will tell you what you can and cannot do with it and Down and Dangerous has proved no exception to the rule. The more time I spend with this footage the better my understanding of its needs has become.

by Guillaume Choquette It's all about perception, at least according to this rendition. And speaking of renditions, the last image is of a visual effect being rendered, translating to "Editors actually sit and wait too often for the machine to complete the edit." True. There are other of these cartoons floating around - on producers...

Scary. Exciting. Unpredictable. Frustrating. Expensive. Cheap. Boring. Awesome. You can apply any combination of these words and many more to the life of a freelancer. There are obvious upsides and downsides but the one that always comes to the minds of assistant editors is the money factor. Will I make enough money to support myself?
