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

Science examines edits: 7 types of narrative disco

http://alex4d.com/notes/item/science-examines-edit...

From a scientific paper: “Event segmentation and seven types of narrative discontinuity in popular movies” by James E. Cutting: These results suggest that there are at least four different signatures of narrative shifts to be found in popular movies — general patterns across time, patterns of historical change, genre-specific patterns, and film-specific patterns. [...] ...the structure of popular movies, and the changes in that structure over the last 80 years, are fit to perceptu...

Tut: Draw This Cute Lion and Sharpen Your Drawing

July 28, 2015, 07:54 AM

In this post we’re going to draw the head of a cute lion graphic, and then complete it with some more awesome techniques in the next post. OK. You may not want to draw a cute lion as such, but I am willing to bet that if you do there will be something in it for you that will accelerate the way you create in Illustrator. Running even the first part of this at recent demos has had people staring open-mouthed at how fast it is.  You’ve got to try it! You Could Do This in n Minutes! Wha...

Room Acoustics Vs Cables

July 27, 2015, 08:22 PM

https://www.aotg.com/room-acoustics-vs-cables/

Cables and room acoustics have a lot in common. both cables and rooms look to achieve low distortion. Rooms must manage pressure and reflections and cables must shield from air born and equipment noise. Cables must define and articulate the signal and our rooms must get out of the way of our equipment sound.
