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

Going backwards a little bit, I’m assuming you’re editing on Avid or some system, I’m just curious when you made the digital switch?

If you love to play with musical instrument apps, you might find Chrome Music Lab entertaining. It doesn't have straightforward virtual pianos or guitars -- it's more of a collection of experiments (some familiar, some odd) to explore sounds, rhythms and melodies.

Why Ghostbusters Relies On Practical Effects

The way you hear filmmakers talk about CGI these days, you could have sworn it was a failed experiment and not the cutting edge tool that everyone and their mother used for a good decade since its salad days. With the backlash continuing to grow, a good amount of directors are reverting back to the days of practical effects, and one such person is Ghostbusters director Paul Feig. His reasoning? Because it's funnier.
