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

I just wanted to share with you all my upcoming ambitious short film Blue Borsalino, a neo-noir that's got a lot of attention so far. I'm very fortunate to have Chris Smith (Creep, Black Death, Severance) on board as Executive Producer - and a brilliant team have formed the rest of the crew whilst we are now casting some very exciting names indeed! We are a couple of backers away from reaching 300 supporters from all around the world. Take a look!

Behind the Title: Fluid editor John Piccolo

NAME: John Piccolo COMPANY:  New York City’s Fluid (@fluidny), which has offices in Los Angeles as well CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOUR COMPANY? What I love about Fluid is that we are a one-stop shop. If I’m editing a spot that needs graphics, music, sound design or visual effects, I often team up with my co-workers to bring rough cuts and final cuts to new and, sometimes, unexpected levels. WHAT’S YOUR JOB TITLE? Editor WHAT DOES THAT ENTAIL? Visual storytelling. It’s always exciting ...

Frames Inside Frames: A Mesmerizing Supercut of Pa

Yasujiro Ozu‘s filmography was a blindspot for me personally until Landon and I explored the Sight & Sound Top 50 together. Falling in love with Tokyo Story was a key that unlocked a beautiful amount of movies hiding in plain sight. Not only is his name crossed off my list of shame, it’s been added to my list of favorite filmmakers.
