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

FX’s Atlanta is one of the most highly acclaimed shows on TV for good reason — in episodes that run barely a half-hour in length, show creator Donald Glover and a team of collaborators that includes his brother, Stephen, craft an ongoing narrative about, as Glover put it before the first season premiered back in 2016, […] The post Emmy-Nominated Sound Editor Trevor Gates on Atlanta appeared first on Studio Daily.

Roles are blurring. As media distribution has accelerated and the cost of production equipment has come down, many check-writers have expected labor costs to follow suit, and technicians of various stripes have had to become competent at non-traditional tasks.

The release of Pro Tools 2018.7 has brought several new features which are mostly aimed at speeding up workflow in cases where an action had to be done over and over again. One such example is the new Duplicate and Extend Edit command. This command doesn't allow us to do anything which couldn't already be done but it facilitates a very common way of repeating clips down the timeline.

Sound design is hands-down one of the most important elements of any horror movie; the aural experience of a jump scare or a gross-out moment is key to the overall viewing experience, and a purposeful lack of sound–the perceived silence before the chaos–is just as important.
