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

El Ranchito was tasked with the VFX for the 8th episode of season 5. Hardhome, like many previous episodes of Game of Thrones, had absolutely massive set pieces that called for thousands of digital extras. The 20 minute sequence took a whole month to film. By the time you finish watching the VFX breakdown, you can’t wait to go stomp some undead skulls.

Sometimes, I envision the Disney executives sitting about in tweed suits, smoking cigars, and passing around a bowler hat filled with slips of papers saying a name of a different Disney film. The men glibly slip a hand in and pull out a piece of paper.

Rodeo FX worked directly with ILM on the latest Brad Bird movie, Tomorrowland. The Montreal- and L.A.-based VFX studio did digital matte painting, bluescreen compositing, scene enhancements, CG effects, and simulation. The highlight is a thrilling sequence in which the protagonists escape in a rocket-propelled bathtub pod moments before their farmhouse explodes.

Many a parent has surely looked at a tween and wondered what was going on in that child’s head. But few can spin that thought into an animated feature film. Pixar’s Pete Docter did just that.
