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

Corona C4D is soon to be a thing. Previously a popular realistic renderer for 3ds Max, it is under development for C4D. Some of the best things about Corona that Cinema 4D users will love, is the quality over the ease of use. Corona C4D also has great integration so far.

There are a lot of tools out there that can create smoke effect in Cinema 4D. X-Particles, to TFD (Turbulence FD), to Krakatoa, just to name a few. It’s not necessary to have some type of fluid simulation drive the effort, but it does help.

Fifty50 (Formerly CreativMotion) posts a look at creating a really cool effect infecting points using Side FX Houdini, VEX and the Solver SOP. Infected points can infect other points in the vicinity. The effect will have some points take over, or “infect” other points and spread to the next nearest points, until all the points have been taken over The Post Infecting Points in Houdini With VEX originally appeared and published on %%BLOGLINK%,by lesterbanks

You probably have seen some behind the scenes reveals where there are crew and talent alike huddled around huge green screens that will eventually be turned into some amazing visual effect.
