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

Unless shot on a soundstage (or somewhere without sound pollution), it's actually pretty rare that when you watch a scene in a film to hear the original audio captured at the time of shooting, especially if we're talking about sound effects. It's difficult to record anything other than dialog with any kind of fidelity during a shoot, which is why sound design is primarily a post-production game that calls for extremely talented artists, like legendary sound designer Walter Murch.

The Academy moved beyond recognizing primarily orchestral work when voters rewarded Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross' electronic score for The Social Network four years ago. A couple of this year's choices tread even fresher ground: Hans Zimmer's largely pipe organ–based music for Interstellar, and Antonio Sanchez's daringly all-drums Birdman score.

Creating your own loops has always been a bit of a niche activity. Programs like GarageBand, Logic Pro, Ableton Live and Reason all come with a vast library of loops right out of the box, and creating your own seemed like a daunting task. However, now that these programs have been mainstream for quite some time we’re all starting to get a bit tired of hearing the same set of loops as background for our favorite reality shows.

He's been nominated six times and has scored five movies released this year ("Monuments Men," "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "Godzilla," "The Imitation Game," and "Unbroken"). But the latter two could conceivably land him two noms given their best picture potential.

Today we’re going to talk about comb filtering and how it affects you. Comb Filtering is a series of unwanted reflections between a speaker and any surface. It’s a series of back and forth reflections that are trapped mainly from middle and high frequencies.

The 18th Australian Screen Sound Guild Awards were held on Sunday, November 23 at The Establishment Hotel Ballroom in George Street, Sydney. 130 people attended, making it the biggest crowd the ASSG has ever had at the awards. Thank you to all the members and friends who attended – it turned out to be a fantastic event. We would especially like to thank those ASSG members who traveled from WA, SA and Victoria.

By Jennifer Walden It’s rare for a director to stop a shoot for the benefit of the sound team, but then again it’s not every day that you have a rare WWII Tiger1 tank on the set… the only operable Tiger1 tank still in existence. Bringing in the real deal tank shows just how important […]The post The sound of ‘Fury’ Part II: Tiger1 Tanks appeared first on postPerspective - Randi Altman's postPerspective.
