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

My number one tip for anyone who needs to do tracking in After Effects is to break open the installation of mocha for After Effects (or mocha AE) that ships with the application (and has since CS4). Nominally a planar tracker used for screen replacements and...

Here's the set back of the day. This happens occasionally as it's easy to do. Our Traffic Dept. routinely deletes videos from our air server. The other day, I was informed they accidentally deleted our "Old Folks Show" we did last fall. It airs again this weekend.

I was doing some turning out in England the other day because I'm selling my apartment there, recalls British film editor Anne V. Coates who made a surprising discovery. I came across this letter which said, Dear Mr. Spiegel, I don't think I can cut Lawrence of Arabia [1962] for the money you're offering.

A lot happened on day 12 of the Barefoot Workshops, so this is a going to be a wordy wrap up. Here’s part 1 of 3 on Marfa, TX, day 12… “Skunked” is a short documentary profiling Marfa, TX local, Jacob Guevara, a 27 year old afflicted with epilepsy and arthrogryposis multiple congenita, as he attempts to retain his...

Many people at the screening were asking for copies of the film. Barefoot Workshops is planning to provide copies to the hotel or library for locals to check-out and borrow. They will also be posting it on their web site with limited access (more on this in a moment). People outside of Marfa have also been asking for an opportunity to see the film. I’d love to post it here, but this is where things are at right now...

Day 12 is hard to pin point. The last few days of the Marfa, TX workshop had started to become fuzzy, most of us getting about 4 hours of sleep the last few days, with an all-nighter going from day 11 to day 12 that made everything a blur. The team was rushing and stressing through our edit most of Thursday, not really seeing how it was going to come together, but by the early morning hours on Frida...
