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

How to Fix Cached Preview in AE

July 17, 2017, 09:16 AM

https://www.rocketstock.com/blog/fix-cached-previe...

One of the most stomach-churning error notifications you can get while working in After Effects is the dreaded “After Effects error: Cached preview needs two or more frames to playback.” Goatman Arts notes that if you’re using a third-party plugin like Element 3D or using 3D cameras in your project, expect the workflow for this solution to be a bit more in-depth. These aren’t guaranteed to work every time, but they may help you prevent the error.

A few days ago, I stumbled on a book by screenwriter Brian McDonald called, ‘Invisible Ink: A Practical Guide to Building Stories that Resonate.” Initially, I thought it would be a good read in the indirect sense that I could gain a better understanding of how story ideas are developed into films, TV shows, or […]

Larry Jordon got on his (self described) soap box this morning with a thoughtful post about the future of editing in an AI infested world. I think we should all be aware of what’s happening, and I’ve certainly been trying to do my part there, as recent posts attest, but I’m not sure I’m quite […]

This week on A Sound Effect, we have 6 new libraries with fresh, unique ideas. You can hear ambiences of a suburb along coastal South Africa, an interior car that captures every button and dial, barefoot and sandalled footsteps, and surreal ambiences that will pierce your audience’s subconscious. You’ll also hear engines and turbines from futuristic podracers and lots of expressions for your female animations. Happy listening!
