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

The training montage is a staple for any sports film, but you’ll see it pop up in other places too. Rightly so, because it's effective in showing progress over time in a condensed space. Still need more explanation? Watch this. Be sure to tell me your suggestions for next time: Andrei Tarkovsky films! Leave a...

This may seem like a bit of an odd question to ask - especially for an editor. After all, we're not in the dark ages where we consider lefties to be the acquaintance of the devil, and although modern world languages seem little biased, it surely doesn't matter? As far as story goes, it's like asking what colour a character's eyes are, right?

The documentary Side By Side (2012), now at theaters, on VOD and on iTunes is an interesting exploration of photo-chemical filmmaking versus digital moving image making at a moment in time where the two co-exist. That is not to say they won’t continue to co-exist, but it’s not to say they will either. It depends [...]

On Tuesday evening, August 14, the Editors Guild's 75th Anniversary Committee continued its Flashback Screening series at the DGA Theatre in Hollywood with a prime example of one of cinema’s most stalwart genres, the Western. One of only two 35mm prints with 5.1 surround sound of Clint Eastwood's The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) was presented, followed by a conversation with two long-time veterans of the Eastwood post-production team, editor Joel Cox, A.C.E., and supervising sound editor Alan...
