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

Unbroken: Editing Angelina Jolie's War Drama

"I don't think anybody can edit a film to be the best it can be by themselves," editor Tim Squyres, ACE, told me when I asked him about his first time as co-editor. "You need to push each other and try other things and react to what someone else is doing." Which was exactly the push and pull process in crafting war drama Unbroken with editor William "Billy" Goldenberg, ACE, in the very next editing room.

He was brought on to cut pieces of the film for fundraising, and ended up seeing the film through production and post-production. Later on in the edit, doc-editing vet Mary Manhardt came on-board for a few months to lend a fresh pa...
