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

HOLLYWOOD -- The 84th Annual Academy Awards took place last night, and while Hugo came into the evening with the most nominations (11) and took home statuettes for VFX, Sound Editing and Sound Mixing, it was clearly The Artist's night, winning Best Director, Best Actor and the coveted Best Picture honors.

If you are a picture editor easily frustrated by change, you're in the wrong business. Over the past six months I've worked on: a 3-D movie shot on 35mm 8 perf film and cut on Final Cut Pro 7 (FCP 7); a series shot on the RED camera and cut on Avid Media Composer (AMC) 5.0.3; a promo trailer shot on P2 and GoPro cameras; a destination film shot on 35mm 8 perf film and cut on FCP 6; a feature length scripted show shot on the Canon 5D and edited on AMC 5.5.3; a sizzle reel editing on AMC 6.0...

Joel Cox, A.C.E., has conjured some of cinema's most enduring visions for audiences in films ranging back to the early 1970s. The images are nothing if not indelibly stamped on the collective consciousness of the movie-going public. With much of his work tied to lead actor-producer-director-composer Clint Eastwood, Cox has crafted...

A promotional handout for the 1992 Drew Barrymore crime drama "Guncrazy." A space shuttle crew photo (a high school friend was on board). A flyer for his homemade root beer. Posters, photos and knickknacks, whimsical and unpretentious, including an old roll of film, the movie poster for the schlocky "Not of This Earth" and some...
