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

If we can write out the steps we want the computer to do, then all we have to do is figure out how to translate our steps into something the computer can understand. I break down the Locator Method for creating pole vector constraints and outline how we would want to go about tackling this process through a script.

While this method is a bit more involved than the method shown in Part 2 of this series, it is well worth the time to set it up. I have yet to run into a situation where rotation values were placed on systems I have created. And once the process is scripted out, it really is just a button click to set up.

In this podcast I demonstrate one method for placing the pole vector icon in the correct location. While this is a fairly quick, user-friendly method and works most of the time, it is not a 100% guarantee to keep joints chain rotation free.
