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

Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle is the story of an alternative early 1960’s in which World War II ended differently, and the United States has been divided into the Greater Nazi Reich and the Japanese Pacific States. For the show’s visual effects team, that premise created the need to help devise imagery – such as locations, vehicles and events – that appeared to be of historical accuracy.

We are SO close to the final season of Game of Thrones that I thought I’d re-publish this short story from vfxblog back from season 7.

To be honest, even though there is a lot of new stuff in Fusion 16 Studio, a lot of it is also going to be rather familiar; at least to Resolve users. Essentially what Fusion 16 does is bundle up all the improvements made to the version of Fusion that resides within Resolve and brings them to the standalone version for the first time (hence why Fusion has jumped from v9 to v16, to bring it into alignment with the marquee product).

When you think of stop-motion animated films, you think of artists meticulously hand-animating a puppet, snapping a frame, and doing that for hours or even days for a shot that might only last seconds on screen. But with films from Laika, that can often be just the start of the process of bringing a shot to life. This is because the studio also makes significant use of visual effects in the form of CG characters, set extensions and clean-up work in creating the final frames.

It’s not every day that the visual effects supervisor for a film is also the author AND the photographer of that film’s ‘making of’ book. But that’s exactly the case with Industrial Light & Magic Presents: Making Solo: A Star Wars Story, for which VFX supe and co-producer Rob Bredow documented the process of making the Ron Howard film with rare first-hand access.
