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

To me, the new stand out feature in CC 2015 is actually in Premiere pro and not After Effects. Check out some real world examples of using Lumetri Color to fix some difficult shots with mixed light environments. Enjoy.

The Importance of Color Science for Video In a previous post, we interviewed Lars Borg, Principal Color Scientist at Adobe, about the intriguing field of color science. In this post, Lars shares a few things that everyone working in video ought to know about color science. We learned from Lars that “color” is actually an interplay of available light, colors, and the context in which we see them – all of which makes color subjective to a lot of different variables. We wanted to...

The most difficult part about creating a 3D LUT is understanding how you want to create the LOOK. The easy part is creating the file. You can create a 3D LUT in DaVinci Resolve in both the Full version and the Lite version, which is free. (With the full version, it is required that you have a USB dongle for the program to work.)

We learned from Lars that “color” is actually an interplay of available light, colors, and the context in which we see them—all of which makes color subjective to a lot of different variables. We wanted to know, with such a deep topic, what ground rules can filmmakers and video enthusiasts derive from color science when it comes to basic color correction and color grading?

Adobe Hue CC is currently an app for the iPad and iPhone that allows you to pick out a hue from images and videos, create a Look based on the hue picked, and then transfer that look to other footage. This is my review of the Hue based on preliminary testing.

Last year I created a series of Looks presets that are designed to work with SpeedGrade CC. These use Adobe’s .look format, which is a self-contained container format that includes SpeedGrade color correction layers and built-in effects. Although I specifically designed these for use with SpeedGrade, I received numerous inquiries as to how they could […]

We have been using color look up tables (LUTs) for over 18 months now. Using LUTs is an easy and fast way to grade footage.
