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

About one month ago, Apple released Final Cut Pro X through the Mac App Store. Before the actual release, there was a lot of hype from editors across the globe. But, once FCPX was out, people's point of view changed. Mostly everyone was unhappy with Apple’s latest non-linear editing application. We learned a lot of ...

What a crazy second half we're off to. Within our industry, we rarely if ever have seen the kind of furor that has been happening over the last several weeks. The blogosphere and twittersphere have been going crazy within our creative community.

I'm not upgrading my laptop or any work system to Mac OS 10.7. Not for a while at least. First of all, Avid Media Composer isn't qualified to work on Lion. Nor are a lot of critical applications.

Coming late to the iPhone version of the rolling shutter meme, my favorite video was not the guitar string oscillation but the one on airplane propellers from DP Review (via Adam Wilt), iPhone video enhanced by rolling shutter effect (h/t to Reddit). This one comes from Jason Beutal, who explains it in detail on his blog in Image Aliasing of Plane Propellers in Photos and Video...

Erik Kessler's RED EPIC is making the rounds. After Philip Bloom got to play around with it last week, it's now DP Tom Guilmette's turn. Read his blog here to get his full take on the "stunning" camera and see below for his quick tutorial on how to set up the menus. Guilmette is planning to make his RED EPIC short this week. It will be posted at a later date.

Have you ever wanted to change the point where an animated mask starts, or where something animating along a path begins? Don't settle for where After Effects wants to start it, tell it where to start by setting the first vertex.

Thanks for the positive comments on my previous post. As a review of Final Cut Pro X, I wanted it to be even-handed. It was intended to let you know about the program without injecting too many of my own opinions.

Rob Mize shows how to create a dynamic 3D sun in 3D space using only CC Particle World. He then demonstrates the versatility of this effect by adjusting the parameters to animate the sun into a supernova explosion. Look forward to more tutorials from Rob on creating other entities in the AE Cosmos!
