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

Whether you are modeling character hair or transferring an asset from another software, starting with curves is often times necessary when generating hair. In this short tutorial we learn how easily this is done in Ornatrix for Maya. See how a bunch of NURBS curves are turned into a parametric, non-destructive hair style with a few mouse clicks.

One of the biggest challenges faced by Sony Pictures Imageworks' visual effects and animation team on Sony Pictures Animation’s Hotel Transylvania 2 was the unique style of movement that director Genndy Tartakovsky wanted to impart on the characters. Explored also on the first film, this exaggerated motion gave an incredible level of extra effect to the performances, but also meant that the artists could not always run typical physics sims for things like cloth and FX. Visual effects superviso...

This is a simple and fun project timelapse of the modeling/sculpting process one might use to create a cartoon character such as this. It is not designed to be a showcase or an elaborate training video. Just a glimpse of some of the tools one might use for a project of similar scope
