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

When it comes to predicting the Oscar winner for Best Film Editing, you can’t go wrong by looking for the movie with the most cuts. Past winners “The Bourne Ultimatum” (2008), “Mad Max: Fury Road” (2016) and “Ford v Ferrari” (2020) included high-octane action sequences with frenetic cutting. And a slew of other champs — including “Saving Private Ryan” in 1999, “Black Hawk Down” (2002), “The Hurt Locker” (2010), “Hacksaw Ridge” (2017) and “Dunkirk” (2018) — h...

Replay: There's a lot of talk about AI, but it can be an emotive subject, with talk of computers replacing humans. We have some news for you, they won't. At least not unless we want them to.

It is no longer novel to note that comedy and tragedy in American politics have become largely indistinguishable, but fictionalizing it is a high-wire act; lean too far to one side and you fall into sanctimony, lean the other way and you fall into cringeworthy embarrassment. Director Adam McKay’s latest film “Don’t Look Up” boldly walks this tightrope for 145 minutes with a story of scientists trying to convince America’s political leaders (as well as its populace) to take action again...

Experienced editors know the value of minimizing clicking and keystrokes: they can edit faster and focus more on crafting a story instead of getting caught up in a lot of button-pushing. If you are able to execute a certain command that you may do hundreds of times a day in two clicks instead of three, [...]Read More... from Faster Editing in Final Cut Pro with “Press & Hold”
