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

Little did we know (until last week) that 4500 full color images were taken of World War I, shot by photographers experimenting with Autochrome Lumiere photography (patented by the famous Lumiere brothers in France). It’s the first major world conflict captured in color, and is preserved in a new book entitled The First World War In Color.

I can't believe how much work went into this title

This title sequence is incredible—a piece of art, made exclusively with physical things, no CGI involved. The amount of work is just absolutely insane. Ironically, it was made for OFFF 2014, a contemporary digital creation festival that will be celebrated in Cincinnati.

How Hitchcock Used Editing in Masterpiece 'Rear Wi

July 29, 2014, 09:52 AM

http://nofilmschool.com/2014/07/alfred-hitchcock-e...

Editing is one of the most mysterious aspects of filmmaking. Through skillful manipulations of still images, it’s possible to create illusions of unity in time and space, and what’s more, make these illusions elicit emotion from an audience, whether tears, laughs, or screams (and sometimes all three at once). Alfred Hitchcock was a master of editing (and everything else in the realm of cinema), and nowhere is his editing skill, as well as that of editor George Tomasini, more on display than ...

Time-Lapse Video Of GODZILLA Scoring Sessions

July 29, 2014, 04:39 AM

https://www.aotg.com/time-lapse-video-of-godzilla-scoring-sessions/

I believe every casual fan of of film music should be blessed with the honor of attending a scoring session at least once in their lifetime. It’s a mind-blowing experience that you never forget. The sheer musical talent collected inside of four walls is difficult to comprehend, especially when these musicians make performing these scores look so ridiculously easy. The fact is, it’s incredibly difficult and composers are constantly pushing their limits with each and every score.
