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

Excitement was running high. The team behind Sound of Metal, Darius Marder’s offbeat drama about a punk rock drummer (Riz Ahmed) who faces life-changing decisions after losing his hearing, was gathered together via Zoom to watch the Oscar nomination announcements. Mikkel E.G. Nielsen, the film’s editor, was settled in front of his computer at his home in Copenhagen when the unthinkable happened. The screen went blank.

Unless there's a huge controversy, I don't usually know much about the best editing Academy Award. While often confused with the movie that might have the most cuts, or the most stylistic, the best-edited movie of the year needs to build the final story, collaborating with the writing and direction to make what happens on screen the fulfillment of the goals of everyone involved.

One of the most frustrating things for editors switching software is having to sit through all the newbie, “editing fundamentals” instruction that comes with most online courses. Well, if you happen to be an AVID editor wanting to move over to Premiere Pro, we have a better option. moviola.com has just released a new, free transition guide to get you up and editing in Premiere Pro in around 45 minutes of instruction, taught by provideocoalition.com’s Scott Simmons. Just the stuff that matt...
