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

From award-winning film director, Reynier Molenaar (Replay/2007), comes a behind-the-scenes look at epic short filmmaking on a guerrilla budget. STRAIN follows two survivors of the zombie apocalypse who must travel across an eerily abandoned Los Angeles in order to save their lives — and their humanity. The film features 78 visual effects shots and original designs from the director.

Shortly after a Maya release, we look forward to sifting through the latest BonusTools. Now, Maya BonusTools 2017 are here.

Does co-editing with the director make for a better film or a faster process?

The backbone of documentary and reality tv editing is what's known as the line cut (aka the radio edit, the a-side edit, or the string out). These are the words that your interviewees say edited down to the timeline in a long row of jump cuts. Franken-biting is when the editor intentionally juggles the interviewees words around to give them another meaning, or to make more / less articulate sentences. At a recent LA Creative Pro User Group (LACPUG) meeting, reality tv editor Vin...

Inventing an entire language could take a century. Inventing an extraterrestrial language? That's something production designer Patrice Vermette had to conceive, and in a short amount of time, for the new alien "invasion" movie Arrival.
