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

This is huge - Lightworks, the video editor that was used to edit many Hollywood films, is now available on the Mac! And what's even better you can try it for free because the software is now being offered as a public beta! Lightworks has the opinion of the fastest, most accessible and focused NLE in the industry and it is the result of the cumulative knowledge from twenty years of top-flight editing.

Throughout his long and fruitful career, Jean-Luc Godard has made films that, to put it mildly, challenge the status-quo. From his 1960 French New Wave debut "Breathless," to his most recent endeavor, the narratively incoherent "Goodbye to Language" in 3D, it's an inarguable fact that the man hasn't lost much steam through the years. Fortunately for us die-hards, caboose, an independent film book publisher, has released Godard's "Introduction to a True History of Cinema and Television," a collec...
