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

In November of 2016 Tonebenders went on an sound nerds tour of New York City. We visited some of the city's top post audio studios and interviewed many of the talented sound professionals working in NYC. In this episode host Timothy and guest co-host Teresa Morrow (a busy re-recording engineer based in Toronto) tell us about the trip and play clips of many of the interviews they did while in the Big Apple.

“Where was the microphone when Woody met Buzz?” That’s usually my short answer when trying to describe what I do for a living. Most of you reading this probably appreciate the facade that is sound for film. That being, that the microphone on set didn’t actually pick up everything you’re hearing when you watch a movie […]

Oops. Whoopsie. Oh no! Sh#t! There are multitude of mistakes: User error, slipups, happy, egregious, colossal, harmless, fortuitous, technical, creative, social, financial… Much like in the photo of broken glass above, there can be beauty in mistakes as much as there is regret. Please share with us how you handle mistakes. Rolling with them, embracing […]

Atlas Obscura has published an interesting article about how Sound Designers tackle sounds inside the human body. According to Hughes and Babcock, those decisions are mostly based on the infrastructural makeup of the body, and the idea that, as the camera zooms through this environment, it’s encountering different materials. “If there’s a bone, we’re going to […]
