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

A recurring topic in our conversations with independent filmmakers is how personal/passion projects have either launched, sustained, or saved their careers. For some people, like Hunter Hampton, personal projects have kept them from jumping off a creative cliff. For others, like Khalid Mohtaseb, passion projects have become a surprisingly effective marketing strategy.

I struggled with it for many years. I was a straight-to-broadcast online editor who was taught at the very start of his career what good images look like. And concepts like broadcast legality? They were burned into my soul.

Sample Logic tell us that their new Kontakt instrument, Arpology, is the next step in music. If you're into creating arpeggiated sequences without boundaries, you NEED to check this out.

In the sixth part of the Corsair series, you'll look at using Maya's powerful Lattice deformer to quickly give the top mesh it's contour. And begin modeling one of the most challenging aspects of the case, the top front panel.

While Designing Sound is firmly warm and cozy in the blanket of text articles, it’s not always the most convenient way to absorb information. Whenever I am walking on a hiking trail or making a long (or even short!) drive I don’t usually listen to music unless I am out of podcasts to listen to! We have covered and collaborated with a few podcasts recently but I thought it would be cool to wrap them all up into a nice little bundle for everyone!

At The Music Bed, we're legitimately passionate about sound and all the ways audio contributes to film. We especially love using RØDE mics to capture quality sound... so we took our RØDE gear and a couple comedic pals from Moetic films out for some fun to show you what these microphones are capable of.
