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

Anyone who didn’t cry at least a little bit at the latest Pixar movie, Inside Out, is probably a monster. And not one of those cuddly monsters in Pixar’s Monsters Inc. One of the bad ones. Ditto anyone who didn’t squeeze out a few tears during the climax of Toy Story 3, or the opening 10 minutes of Up. Basically, Pixar has its audience tears on tap, and the bar is always open. A new video by Above Average offers a possible explanation of how they accomplish this mission.

Long before Pixar and today's CGI special effects extravaganzas, early animators of the silent era experimented and introduced new techniques into filmmaking. Mark Quigley gives us a tour of the silent animation collection at UCLA's Film & Television Archive - one of the few places in the world that captures this rich history of early animation.

Let’s take a look at what’s new, as well as how to initially setup users and preferences.

At IBC in Amsterdam, RØDE announced its new i-XLR plug-in preamp/A-to-D converter for iOS devices like the more recent iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch, which all use the Lightning connector. Like many other devices I have reviewed, i-XLR takes a balanced (or unbalanced) microphone source, amplifies it, digitizes it, and sends it via the Lightning connector to the iOS device. That way, we completely bypass the iOS device’s inferior preamp and A-to-D. What is so different about the i-XLR is th...
