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

If you ask someone about trends these days, it’s nearly impossible not to bring up the economy, since that is the root of most trends these days. "The industry is very black and white right now," says Soho Editors CEO David Gater. "You are either winning or you are out... there is no in between. This can be seen all across the industry; there is no room for mediocrity. If you are not at the top of your game there is no place for you. Shows are being cancelled, facilities are closing their...

A new suggestion for the greatest film ever edited has been made and that is The Good, The Bad and The Ugly cut by Nino Baragli and Eugenio Alabiso with the extended English cut by Joe D'Augustine. This reminded us about Once Upon a Time in the West another Sergio Leone Classic edited by Nino Baragli.
