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

By Jennifer Walden Super Bowl Sunday is an unofficial national holiday in this country, with almost as much excitement for the commercials that air as for the actual game. And regardless of which teams are playing, New York’s advertising and post communities find themselves celebrating, because they know the work they are providing will be seen by millions and talked about repeatedly in offices and on social media.

Voice-over narration in film is often accused of being lazy or a crutch. Cinema is, after all, about visual storytelling. A voice-over can undermine the nature of the art form when misused. However, Martin Scorsese’s filmography, namely Goodfellas, Casino, Wolf Of Wall Street and Taxi Driver serve as excellent reminders for how great a voice-over can be when done right.

’d first knowingly heard Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson‘s work in Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival, in which the score is characterized by a low, rumbling din and staccato vocalizations that, fittingly, sound altogether alien to the ears.
