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’m talking about changing careers — into Visual Effects or into any creative career — after the age 30. Just to start out: This Episode is from a video I’ve published, which dove into changing careers. I wanted to try putting out easy going content. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time worrying about lighting for a video. Rather, I wanted to focus on the content. The video did do well. I’ve had comments like, “This is the exactly right video for me, right now!”

This is Allan McKay. Welcome to Episode 148! I’m speaking with Kevin Baillie from Atomic Fiction. He is one of the Founders. He is also CEO of Conductor Technologies, a cloud-based renderer. Kevin is definitely an authority and early adopter of cloud rendering. Atomic Fiction is one of my favorite studios to work at! It’s located in Oakland, California and in Montreal in Canada. This is going to be a really cool Episode.
