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

Like any job, going to work in the film industry isn’t always fun. Stepping on set can become a chore when you’re stressed from a shoot, feeling pressure from your department, and working extremely long hours.

If you've not seen Paperman yet, you're missing out on a stunningly animated 2D/3D short film whose stylistic simplicity masks a tremendously complex 3D pipeline. Watch the full film then check out the behind the scenes featurette.

No Time To Waste!

Shortland Street is a show that's difficult to put into perspective for anyone outside of New Zealand. It airs five nights a week in prime time on the country's most watched channel, TV 2, and has an immense social influence: something like 95% of people over 14 have watched the show at some point, and it regularly achieves a 50 share. The show's reach is unmatched.

We have a conversation with Jamie Cobb (Forsman). We talk about Kickstarter, Indie filmmaking and being in a relationship with a creative partner. We also talk about the The Sabi Company (which I call the Saba Company at least once).

Memoirs of a TV editor

I’ll be honest with you, I never liked editing. In fact I hated it. It was time-wasting and dull to me. I mean, the whole day? Sitting in this dark, soundproof room? Putting what producers, directors and cameramen have gone out and experienced? Nope, not for me. It made sense in theory but practically – a big NO!

Editor's Note: This article has been marked "Not Safe For Work" due to elements which contain nudity and sexual situations. In the beginning, the Internet was formless and empty. But soon there was Geocities, and Livejournal, and Fotolog - precursors of digital expression, fonts of potential.
