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

Below is an interview I conducted between Capcom’s Tomoya Kishi and Media Molecule’s Kenneth Young. I started them off with a few questions and let them go back and forth from there. I hope you enjoy reading the interview as much as we had putting it together.

It's no surprise that Thelma Schoonmaker was the Tribeca Film Festival's choice for a panel about editing in film. Few editors have had more fruitful collaborations than the one between Schoonmaker and Martin Scorsese, which began in 1967 on "Who's That Knocking on My Door" and resumed in 1980 with "Raging Bull." Schoonmaker has edited all of Scorsese's features since that LANdmark, but for "The Cutting Room: An Insight to the Edit Suite" masterclass that took place over the weekend in New York,...

Who is too old for animation? This is the question posed in a packed animation day on April 26th (11.00-15.30) presented by the IFI in collaboration with Animation Skillnet and the answer is definitively nobody! But this day is a great chance to explore what the differences are in animation for adults and animation for children, and will give plenty to think about for both animators and everyone with an interest in visual culture and storytelling.
