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

Designing SoundGordon Hempton is one of the world’s foremost nature sound recordists. He’s won an Emmy, been the subject of a documentary, is an activist for acoustic ecology, and…in what many may deem a tragic irony…is also losing his hearing. Our focus on field recording this month is the perfect opportunity add his voice to our little community here.

NVIDIA just announced the GeFroce GTX 780 TI enthusiast video card! NVIDIA said this card will be sent to reviewers in November and didn’t want to spoil the surprise. Jen-Hsun said that the card is very powerful and should work wonderfully in SLI driving three 4K displays in Surround mode! There is a pretty small performance gap between the GeForce GTX 780 and the GeForce GTX Titan, so it will be interesting to see the performance of this video card when we get our hands on it next month!

While there is no way to be 100% sure who owned the magical vocal chords of the person who made that momentous scream, the lead suspect has long been actor and singer/songwriter Sheb Wooley- the man most famous for the song “Purple People Eater”. Wooley had an uncredited part in the first film the scream was heard in, a 1951 film called Distant Drums, starring Gary Cooper as Captain Quincy Wyatt. At one point during the film, Captain Quincy is leading his soldiers through a swamp when one of...

Studios prefer our editorial to coincide with the releases of their movies, some of which are very far from finished when we start hounding the filmmakers. And it can be a high-wire act to predict what films are worth covering. Sometimes we strike out, covering real stinkers. Occasionally, we’ll delay coverage if we figure it will be worth the wait. Once in a while, we have to let some gems pass us by.
