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

2016 Oscar Predictions: Best Animated Feature

May 25, 2015, 04:15 PM

After an incredible streak that brought it 7 trophies in this category, Pixar has been shut out two years running. If there's one thing we can be certain about with next year's Oscars, it's that "Inside Out" will change that. What's more, Pixar has another film coming out by year's end, "The Good Dinosaur," and we'd bet that both end up making the cut. No Pixar original has ever not been nominated here since the category began (though some sequels have missed out).

This question Where To Go Jurassic World, may at first seem strange, but it makes sense in many ways. Steven Spielberg has done a series of very famous movies about extinct animals, and viewers could learn a lot about the types of animals that once lived on earth. The last movie that works brings new exciting adventures but also animals that we've seen on the big screen.
