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
Aotg.com Founder

An example of an offset text technique. this is using text animators, and some 3D stuff. I think it ends up looking cool how each letter is in a different place in z space.

The After Effects CC 2015 update is a significant re-architecture that affects how 3rd party plugins interact with it. This means most plugins will require an update to work in this new version. Screen Equalizer for CC 2015 and above has the addition of a “Get Sample Color” button. Click this button after selecting the Clean Plate from the drop down. It will then populate the Sample Color box with the appropriate screen color.

Okay, this is a BIG tutorial, lots of info here, but also, you could get lost, so be sure to ask questions. This is adding live action footage to environment maps, that can be used in 3D plugins, like Element 3D. This is a fun technique, but takes a lot of time.

After Effects Video Tutorials: Adding 3D Depth to

You’ve probably seen the popular effect where an animator will take the foreground and the background and separate them in 3D space. The result when the camera moves is an awesomely realistic parallaxing 3D effect.
