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

That was fast: DreamWorks Animation’s stock price is down 7.7% in post-market trading — after rocketing 26% during the day — following a Wall Street Journal reported that deal conversations with SoftBank have “cooled.” The paper says that its info comes from “people familiar with the matter” and adds that “negotiations could restart.” One of its sources says that the companies “could ultimately strike a deal other than an outright takeover … for instance some kind of conten...

Deal Talk Lifts DreamWorks Animation Shares

UPDATE, 9:24 AM: DreamWorks Animation shares are up 22.1% mid-day on reports that SoftBank might buy the independent studio. But the trading price, at about $27.30, remains well below the $32 under discussion, suggesting that there’s still some skepticism that the deal will happen. That price “would be a gift to current DreamWorks shareholders,” Cowen and Co’s Doug Creutz says. “We don’t see a lot of rhyme or reason to the pattern of vaguely related assets SoftBank is rolling up; thi...
