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

Dolby Atmos is part of a new movement to provide a more immersive sound field or experience with movies. Multiple channels arranged throughout the side, front, rear and ceiling all contribute to the experience. However, multiple full range sources produce more low frequency energy which must be managed.

For some of us, November might be bringing the chill, but why not start a fire, put in the old earbuds, and warm up to a few podcasts from the audio community?

Every time I hear the excuse "we didn't plan this shoot much because we didn't have much money" I cringe. If you don't have money should should be planning extra hard, and more importantly you should be inventive. Today I'm introducing you to director Ross Ching, who made this incredible spec commercial for popsicle sticks. We reached out to Ross to try and get this project for EditStock. When we initially watch the film we were sure this was 3D CGI, but everyone kept asking, how...
