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

Johan Söderberg is a new discovery for me. I'm thrilled to bits. He's the bee's knees!http://soderberg.tv/ If someone has the ambitions to become a good editor studying music is necessary. An editor today has to known music. [...] You have to know how to edit music, compose and create sound effects. An editor has to know how to work with video and music simultaneously. Only editing is not enough. You have to evolve and learn about music and audio. Editors than don't take this in ten yea...

SioPio walks through using standard C4D tools to easily cheat a flocking simulation that can be used in many situations. This technique can easily create a convincing swarm or flocking simulation which is useful for animation multiple of objects, such as a school of fish, flock of birds, or swarm of insects.

Back in 1995, I was coordinator for a creature effects studio in a nondescript corner of Sun Valley, when the phone rang. A whispering voice, reminiscent of Peter Lorre, asked to speak with my boss, Steve Johnson. “Who may I ask is calling?” I asked. “It is Gee-ger from Switzerland,” the voice replied.
