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

Blackmagic Editor Keyboard: A return to the linear

With software suites continually offering an expanded toolsets and features, it can be easy to overlook the foundations of what makes a good edit. A good edit tells a story, a good edit has rhythm, and a good edit is invisible. No amount of visual trickery will disguise a bad cut and advances in hover-scrub technology will not correct poor rhythm and visual discontinuity.

AE Stop Motion Effect

April 17, 2019, 06:22 AM

https://www.rocketstock.com/blog/stop-motion-video...

A while back, I produced a tutorial showing users how to get started creating stop motion videos. In that video, I show how to animate a basic paper crumple effect. The shot consists of a crumpled paper moving onscreen, uncrumpling, recrumpling, and then moving back off screen. To achieve the popular blocky-style look, I shot 50 images to create a 5-second animation at 10 fps. Yeah, all of this work for 10 seconds of video.
