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

A new discovery in the Render Blog – who has been posting some great stuff with texture and rendering, as in this post showing how to create a little script that will build a light from a current camera view – very handy!

If you find yourself craving a snack on Sunday nights, rest assured you’re not alone. Millions of viewers with an appetite for comedy have been ending their weekends with a stop at the delightfully off-kilter diner known as Bob’s Burgers. While the daily specials listed on the blackboard have certainly proven memorable – thanks to items like the Roquefort Files Burger and the Child Molester, which comes complete with candy – a fair portion of the animated show’s success can be chalked ...

Language differences, questionable cell phone connections and beach days are just some things that can get in the way of a smooth edit. By Jennifer Walden Even when you’re speaking the same language, client emails can be cryptic. To puzzle out their meaning, video editor Matt, in New York, calls the client to get some […]

Quand je l’ai rencontrée, elle n’avait qu’un mot à la bouche : "ambiance". Et moi je lui disais toujours, mais "ambiance" c’est quoi ? Est-ce qu’on fait un film seulement sur de l’"ambiance" ? J’avais un peu peur. Et puis … Lire la suite →
