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

Video Essays as Art: Why Process Matters

May 29, 2016, 12:22 PM

The title of this series, “The Video Essay As Art,” isn’t meant to be facetious. I think that there really is room for artistry in the field of video essays. In my last piece I outlined a wide range of video essay categories, and the disparities between these videos suggests that the term “video essay” lacks a sense of cohesion. This is similar to a problem facing the video essay’s spiritual forebear, the essay film.

Sound Design Lessons for VR Video from VR Games

May 27, 2016, 10:18 AM

http://alex4d.com/notes/item/vr-sound-design-lesso...

VR Video tools for video editors have progressed quickly in the last year, but there has been less discussion about the audio side of VR video. Although VR audio tools have yet to be integrated into NLEs, audio experts (and video editors who spend much of their time refining their soundtracks) should consider how audio design is different for VR. Those designing audio for VR games are probably further along in coming up with what makes VR different.  At a mini conference on game audio ear...
