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

Showtime’s Nurse Jackie just had its second season finale, but with the cable network’s announcement that the popular show will return for a third season next year, fans of the dark, half-hour comedy series about a flawed emergency room nurse at All Saints' Hospital in New York City will have something to look forward to. In the meantime, Gary Levy and Anne McCabe, the two picture editors, and Steve Borne, the supervising sound editor, talk about their work on the just-concluded second seaso...

Over 20 years ago Avid began with a shift away from linear purpose-built hardware by harnessing the power of non-linear software, running (eventually, as they increased in power) on commodity workstations. Today, the network--extending beyond the local network to the internet--is the platform ready to be harnessed.

Editing "in the cloud" (i.e. with media and power remotely on the Internet) is hotting up. Google has just released a new tool for YouTube http://bit.ly/cahd27 while Avid have been previewing their cloud-based editing application. http://bit.ly/bnNPUQ Still, uploading media seems to be the sticking point for any serious amount of editing.

YouTube has a new video editor that lets you create videos using excerpts from the videos you've already uploaded. You can also add a music file from the AudioSwap library, but YouTube mentions that it might display ads if you use some of the audio files.
