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

I like cakes a lot, especially cakes with lots of layers. After Effects also has lots of layers, but when you have to start doing boring and repetitive tasks those ones don’t seem as much fun as eating a nice slice of opera gateaux. This project diary takes you through a real-life project where I was faced with the prospect of having to animate lots and lots of layers – both the After Effects and the cake varieties – for a very long time. And I really didn’t want to do it by hand, so I l...

If you create content in Adobe Illustrator to bring into After Effects, you likely use Explode Shape Layers. It lets you quickly and easily separate and merge your vector artwork for a much smoother transition The Post New Text Exploder Splits Type How You Like in After Effects originally appeared and published on %%BLOGLINK%,by lesterbanks

Heads Up Displays, or HUDs, are a great way to add a high tech vibe to film projects. It all started with Minority Report (2002); the film’s floating computer displays were so influential they even inspired real-world innovations. And where would Tony Stark be without them in the Iron Man movies, where the shots inside his suit are accompanied by slick holographic interfaces?
