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

If you have been sitting on the fence instead of jumping on to the 2D animation powerhouse that is Moho, now might be your chance. You can download a 30 day trial version for Moho and Moho Pro to tinker around with. Add to that a new rigging course offered on Udemy by McCoy Buck.

Steve Jobs' history with the now-acclaimed animation studio Pixar began in 1986 when the former Apple CEO purchased The Graphics Group, which was one third of the Computer Division of Lucasfilm, renamed it Pixar Animation Studios, and began guiding it into a burgeoning feature film production company. In a new book called To Pixar and Beyond, written by former Pixar chief financial officer Lawrence Levy, the history between Jobs and Pixar is highlighted and deepened by looking at the struggling ...

Propeller blades, wings, a ship’s hull, a car panel. What do they all have in common? They are complex flowing surfaces that can be a challenge to model with polygons, alone. NURBS or solid modelers will offer a better workflow for these types of complex forms. Houdini (and others) can work wth NURBS surfaces which The Post Model Complex Forms in Houdini With NURBS originally appeared and published on %%BLOGLINK%,by lesterbanks

Follow through and overlapping animation might seem tedious to some. It can be tricky to get the timing correct on objects like a flag, or a character’s tail. I you are animating a tail, there is a little trick that you can use that can make things much easier. Just offset curves in time. Paul The Post Animating a Tail?
