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

Before we get to the animate with audio bit… Autodesk’s Daryl Obert has been steadily documenting his Journey to VR with Autodesk Maya. The idea is that you can follow along on his Journey to VR blog as Daryl builds his first VR experience.

One of the drawback for using Octane is that you can’t use multiple HDRs in one scene. The popular rendering engine has no method for using an HDR image for lighting and another for rendering. Octane 3 introduced a camera environment which can be used for this purpose. Why is this important?

Oh this teapot? You have seen it pretty much everywhere. There were probably times when you didn’t even realize that you were seeing it. Some applications actually have it as a primitive as a menu item. Pixar uses it as a trade show mascot. It’s the most famous brew-pot in computer graphics.

If you have been sitting on the fence instead of jumping on to the 2D animation powerhouse that is Moho, now might be your chance. You can download a 30 day trial version for Moho and Moho Pro to tinker around with. Add to that a new rigging course offered on Udemy by McCoy Buck.

Sometimes you don’t need a complicated setup, simulation or process to get a great result. Take this example. Drunk PandaBeer takes a snapshot of his process for creating an organic vortex animation. The shape and animation is similar to what you would see with a twister or tornado.
