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

The best way to learn something is to get started. And, if Motion is something you want to learn, our "Create Animated Lower-Third Titles in Apple Motion 5" webinar is a great way to start.

This new tool allows you to straighten a photo or extend the size of it and automatically fill the empty space with content from the photo itself. You'll not only learn how to use it, but also its limitations and workarounds.

The editor serves the story and not the script. Regardless of whether the film is improvised or faithfully filmed according to a perfectly written screenplay, when it arrives at the editing room, everything is fair game. Here is why you may need to stray away from the script: - The film's structure doesn't work - A key scene has problems - A scene slows down the overall pacing of the film - There are problems with acting - Important shots are missing - There is some confusion
