To The Aotg.com Community,
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

King Richard The Oscars are upon us again. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences may have decided that “Music (Original Score)” is one of the categories not important enough to show live along with the rest of the awarding of the golden statuettes. We, of course, think this is absurd. (Will the Oscar […]

Clickety, clackety, click. Prior to the advent of Microsoft Powerpoint, large-scale corporate presentations often involved elaborate multimedia productions. Support for keynote addresses, trade shows, and board of directors meetings took the form of audio-visual productions using multiple, synchronized 35mm slide projectors as the playback system. In the 1970s and even 1980s, if you wanted to […]

At last week's GTC developer conference, Nvidia revealed a nifty AI tool that takes a bunch of 2D photos of the same scene from different angles and almost instantly transforms them into a three-dimensional digital rendering.

“Merci du fond du coeur,” or thanks from the bottom of my heart, he said, switching to French as he received the statuette. He slipped in a joke as well. “So you may not know, but the words ‘Oscar nominated’ can be used, in the hands of a skilled 17-year-old, as an insult. My daughter once said to me in argument, ‘It’s all very well for you, Oscar-nominated Joe Walker.’”
