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

Replay: It starts innocently enough. You are colour grading with a client and the client requests that you drop in a replacement shot, or remove an object from the frame. You have the tools to do these things, so why not? By Nicole Caetano

With the Halloween movie season comes a variety of different things for people both young and old to watch to get into the spooky spirit.

And, this Halloween season, the Muppets team has done just that with a Disney+ special titled Muppets Haunted Mansion. For fans of the legendary Disneyland ride and of the Muppets, this 50-minute special is just for you.

“Is he a scientist, a researcher, a philosopher or inventor?” someone can be heard asking in “Becoming Cousteau,” about how best to introduce the great French undersea explorer Jacques Cousteau to American audiences, even with his achievements as monumental as they were not quite making it to the mainstream across the Atlantic. Still, the deep sea diver that had invented the aqualung to spend more time underwater than anyone ever had before and captured his excursions on film so that aud...
