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

Overt the last couple of years, my editing “experience” has mostly revolved around product explainer and educational videos, so when a friend asked me to edit some spec pieces for her actor’s reel, I jumped at the chance to cut some (short) drama. My friend is a very talented writer and actor, and has strong […] The post Reading is Fundamental! first appeared on The present and future of post production business and technology.

Many reviews of director Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tick, Tick…Boom!, now streaming on Netflix, have commented on the look of the lead character Jon’s dingy, old apartment and how it really exudes the feel of late ’80s/early ’90s New York and the Bohemian (read poor) existence of the playwright in his struggling artist period.

What is tone? To answer that question we have to place tone in an appropriate context. Tone can refer to the intonation/pitch of acoustics, the meeting of light and shadow, the firmness of muscles, etc. — but we’re going to focus on what tone means in storytelling. Tone is how an artist feels towards the art they create — sounds simple enough right? Well, consider this: how do we know how an artist feels? We’re going to explore that question by looking at examples from Ayn Rand, Federico...
