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

The word is "frankenbiting," and it's one of those delicious terms of art in the reality TV trade that means exactly what it implies: A producer on a show decides he or she doesn't like the way a particular taped interview went with a contestant, so "improvements" are made. A snip here, a snip there, a little highly selective editing, and--presto!--the contestant says something he didn't actually say.

Frankenbyting is a popular tool used by Reality TV editors to add drama to their programming. In the same way that scripted TV producers write dramatic dialogue for their characters, reality TV producers use frankenbyting to create dramatic situations by rearranging the sequence of events and dialogue. Frankenbyting occurs in two general styles.

We all know that feeling of getting stuck on a plane with an annoying passenger, but a Modern Family editor made the best out a bad situation by live-tweeting her horrible (but thoroughly amusing from afar) experience last night. She tweeted that she was sitting behind a woman so drunk and obnoxious that she was eventually questioned by police by the end of the flight.

We've all had horrible in-flight experiences, but not many of us can say we documented them with any amount of comic authority. "Modern Family" editor Ryan Case detailed her long, horrifying flight with a woman named Nadia, and now the human race is better because of it. Check out this truncated version of her saga. Full, 64-tweet journey here.

That was fast: DreamWorks Animation’s stock price is down 7.7% in post-market trading — after rocketing 26% during the day — following a Wall Street Journal reported that deal conversations with SoftBank have “cooled.” The paper says that its info comes from “people familiar with the matter” and adds that “negotiations could restart.” One of its sources says that the companies “could ultimately strike a deal other than an outright takeover … for instance some kind of conten...
