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

With spectacular blockbusters dominating the movie scene these days, a filmmaker's ability to properly use special effects is essential. Though movies like Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens are bringing back a love practical effects, you'd still be hard-pressed to find a big, visually stunning tentpoles without some effects magic.

It is no secret that I like Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve. So when a point-one update comes out that includes new features, I like to go through and see what’s new under the hood, so to speak. So what’s new? There is plenty here to like. Some of the changes are platform specific. Some are nice tweeks. And a few are fairly big. There is something in 12.1 for everybody. Here’s a list of the new features.

How to 3D Camera Track 360 Footage in AE

November 13, 2015, 06:05 AM

Mikey Borup (After Effects Tutorials w/Mikey) shows us exactly how to 3D Camera Track 360 footage in After Effects. Camera tracking or match moving is primarily used to track the movement of a camera through a shot. That way you can add or remove objects in a scene, and they will match the perspective and look seamlessly integrated into the scene. It’s much trickier to do with 360 footage than with 2D footage, but Mikey figured out a technique and shares it in this tut. He camera tracks a Bill...

Contender – Editor Joe Walker, Sicario

You know when you sit down to watch a film and it immediately cements you to your seat with that certain level of awe. It grabs hold of you and saturates your eyes with wonderment while you bravely ignore that acute pain building in your bladder… Director Denis Villeneuve’s film Sicario has that type resonance and that might even be an understatement.
