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

Three members of our cohort have edited Oscar nominated films! Fellow Lindsay Utz edited American Factory, mentee Faisal Azam edited the short, St. Louis Superman, and mentor Mary Manhardt edited the short Learning to Skateboard in a Warzone (if You’re a Girl).American Factory is streaming on Netflix. The shorts are now playing at the IFC Center in NYC and at theaters across the country as part of the "Oscar Nominated Shorts 2020" programs. We'll cross our fingers for them on Feb. 9!

Editing is, by and large, a thankless profession. Film editors work behind the scenes, sculpting massive piles of footage into feature films with pacing and tone and foreshadowing and callbacks. If they’re good at their jobs, you barely notice their work at all, keeping them in the shadows. Not so with Thelma Schoonmaker, a much-imitated legend in her field who’s also one of a small handful of film editors whose name is recognizable to your average filmgoer.

After weeks of UK government press briefings dripping poison on the BBC’s funding model, Boris Johnson appears ready to push ahead with plans that could weaken the corporation’s ability to collect its licence fee revenue. It means one of the prime minister’s first domestic policies since winning a thumping majority in last year’s general election is effectively a declaration of war on the BBC.

Voting for the Oscars kicked off on January 30 and runs for six days before ending at 5 p.m. PT on February 4. Forty-eight hours before that deadline, the BAFTA Awards will take place in London on Sunday evening (Feb. 2). In each of the past three years, these precursor prizes were handed out before academy members were able to cast their ballots. You have to go back to 2016 to find a year where the BAFTAS took place during final voting for the Academy Awards.
