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

In making Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s lastest film, The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet, stereographer Demetri Portelli was out to prove that 3D is creative, and that quality 3D footage could be shot on schedule and on budget. "3D is not just hitting a button in post," he told The Hollywood Reporter.

If you need to be really accurate in mimicking the texture details from a photograph, The Render Blog has you covered showing how you can use Maya’s Projections to project texture reference into your scene, and then bake it as a texture to UV space.

You might have had some moderate success in local markets, but let's be real; your band's trajectory isn't heading towards Coachella any time soon. As a matter of fact, your band has internally combusted. Over the years the band mate relationships have dwindled into Facebook 'likes' on random posts. Someone just had a baby. Someone just started a new business. Someone just got married... and what's worse, the local bars have stopped buying you drinks. Ouch!

In my 5 part 3D integration VFX series I showed you how to plan, shoot, track, render and composite 3D elements into your scene using After Effects and 3dsMax. If you do not need all the featured offered by a fully fledged 3D program, you can also create cool 3D integration effects using the Element 3D plug-in by videocopilot. This tutorial will show you how :)
