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

VFX Legion created a computer-generated universe for the 'Power Rangers: Shattered Grid' trailer. The Burbank-based studio built a virtual sci-fi environment that blends with original live-action footage and scenes from the Power Rangers TV series to bring the comic book’s panel art into a live-action world. This new chapter of the iconic Power Rangers' story takes a dramatic turn, and marks the 25th anniversary of the franchise with the biggest event in its history.

We were able to sit down with VFX Supervisor Adam Clark at NAB to pick his brain about the history of Fusion and its future with Blackmagic. As long-time Fusion user, Clark has seen many iterations of the node-based compositor, which was already a robust program when it was originally authored by eyeon, but says that the game has been changed now that Fusion has made its way into the hands of Blackmagic.

Ever wonder how speakers and particular speaking sessions get organized at animation conferences? I certainly did, until recently when I had the opportunity to help curate a conference ‘track’ for the upcoming FMX event in Stuttgart.
