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

Identifying trends in visual effects is fraught with danger. Technology is constantly changing, as are the VFX location hotspots. Right now, a truly worldwide visual effects industry exists, propelled in part by an explosion in comic book and sci-fi films, animated features, virtual reality and TV visual effects. Here’s a look at 5 current trends that are shaping the future of VFX – from returning to practical roots to new technology and creative innovations.

We’re big fans of Steven Spielberg here at Cinefex. So, with the whizzpopping fizzog of Roald Dahl’s Big Friendly Giant fronting our brand new issue Cinefex 149, we wondered: “How many Cinefex covers have featured a movie directed by Spielberg?”

Deluxe’s Method Studios produced much of the visual effects for the 45min long IMAX Voyage of Time. The origin of life story by Director Terrence Malick shows the grand history of the cosmos, "spanning the eon from the Big Bang to present day and beyond".

In Q&A 16 I asked “Where do you discover new music”. I got so many great replies from you guys that I felt the topic deserved its own video. In this video: I share some recommendations, my previous and current listening habits, reading many comments, and a rant about YouTube Red.

The summer blockbuster season may be over, but that doesn’t mean the big VFX houses are slowing down. After a season filled with several standard big-name franchise installments, the fall leads into a just as impressive holiday season as well. Superheroes and action still dominate, but Disney’s foray into live-action CGI-intensive reboots should continue to give inspiration and excitement to animators and effects artists for the next few years.

Adobe’s After Effects is a powerful program. Its capabilities to work with 3D motion, hundreds of layers, and 4K footage means that it needs a powerful computer to process the data for everything it’s trying to do. Not everyone has the luxury of working on the most recent top-of-the-line machines. However, there are ways to work within the program to make it faster and more efficient.
