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

One of the great things we get to do here at fxguide and at our sister site, fxphd, is to explore a range of technologies and their application to visual effects. We were recently able to visit CSIRO, Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, to explore a 3D mapping system called Zebedee that we thought could have some very real applications to the visual effects industry.

JUNE 4 Motion creates very cool motion graphics, but it also scares a lot of people because it is so different from all other motion graphics software. However, once you understand how Motion works, you can use it to create really interesting visual effects. Even better, you don’t need to be a world-class designer to create world-class effects. In this online video training, join host Larry Jordan as he explains how Motion 5 works, illustrates the differences between behaviors and filter...
