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

Et si on faisait un cimetière ? Un cimetière de beaux plans, de plans rejetés, de plans qui n’ont pas trouvés leur place, de plans qui seront d’éternels regrets ? Une timeline sur laquelle on les déposeraient avec respect et … Lire la suite →

The Art of the Showreel

Your showreel is one of the most important things you have as an upcoming artist. It’s often seen before you are, so you need it to give the best representation of you that you can. For a fair few artists little thought is put into their showreel, as it seems simple compared to the art in which it contains.

Da Vinci’s Demons is the first television drama – or motion picture – to tackle the biography of the quintessential Renaissance man, Leonardo da Vinci. He is known for painting some of the world’s best-known masterpieces like The Mona Lisa and The Last Supper and also for being a brilliant inventor whose concepts for everything from flying machines, to submarines and military tanks were centuries ahead of their time.
