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

Within weeks of third-party Final Cut Pro X developer Tim Dashwood joining the ProApps team, Apple applied for a patent that changes the way computers connect to VR and AR head-mounted devices: ‘Method and System for 360 Degree Head-Mounted Display Monitoring Between Software Program Modules Using Video or Image Texture Sharing’ (PDF version). It turns out that Tim is doing more for Apple than being part of adding VR video editing features to applications. His work is part of the way m...

In this tutorial, we are going to track and composite eye elements onto footage in Adobe After Effects. You will also learn some basic compositing and workflow tips that will help improve the composites, and we’ll even experiment with adding in HUD elements tracked to the eyes.

Adobe unveiled new features for Premiere Pro and After Effects related to 360/VR during IBC 2017. A lot of the new additions were centered around the acquisition on the Skybox Studio plugins from Mettle and their inclusion inside Premiere Pro and After Effects.

If you work in Visual Effects in the UK (and especially at DNeg, ILM, MPC and Framestore), it's likely you saw green people on the way in to work today. You're not just seeing things from working or playing too much, they really were there! Their mission was to pass out flyers and raise awareness for a new union organizing effort called VFX Assemble!

It’s not very long until the VIEW Conference in Turin, Italy, which kicks off 23 October. One of the amazing things about this event is the high calibre of speakers – we’re talking major visual effects supervisors, animation directors and leaders in VR and other creative content industries.

I can’t believe we’re actually at Episode 100. I started this Podcast about 2 years ago. I only intended to do about five Episodes and see how it went. And now, here we are: There are tens of thousands downloads every month, moving to about a hundred thousands downloads per month. It’s been a lot of work! But the emails from people reaching out — with their success stories, telling me how their lives have been changed — that’s what makes me put all the hard work in and keep this goin...
