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

Jack Newman is from a small seaside town in South Devon. One of those towns with nothing to offer for teenagers. Fortunately I was given a camera to keep me busy. What kept me more busy though was the edit after each day of filming. I would see how I could make something nice to...

Oscar-winning documentarian Alex Gibney's film, We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks, is as much about what is missing as it is a meticulous record of the intertwined actions of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and U.S. Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning, recently convicted of multiple counts of espionage in In what is by far the most voluminous release of classified material in Unites States history.

Is post an endangered species?

August 26, 2013, 12:56 PM

http://broadcastengineering.com/post-production/po...

To judge by a spate of conference presentations at IBC 2013, we might conclude that post production was alive and well, but a closer inspection, might reveal that post production as we know it may cease to exist. That does not mean that the functions will become extinct, but that some will increasingly be automated, while the ones that really add value and require the human touch will be incorporated into either the production or distribution chains...
