To The Aotg.com Community,

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

Jamie Hamel-Smith offers another quick 5 minute tip, this time looking at how to take some control back from your global illumination rendering in Cinema 4D and control color bleeding. Technically the color bleeding is coming from the light bouncing off of multiple surfaces picking up colors form the previous bounces – this is what Global Illumination is really all about.

Watch David Lynch’s twisted animated series Dumb

May 14, 2014, 01:10 PM

After Mulholland Drive, Lynch became disenchanted with making movies while at the same time he grew intrigued by the possibilities offered by cheap digital cameras and the internet. In 2002, he made the animated series Dumbland, which Lynch himself called “very stupid, very crude.” Indeed, the simple black and white line drawings of Dumbland make Beavis and Butthead look like something out of Hayao Miyazaki. Lynch did everything himself, including all the voices.

May 14, 2014, 01:10 PM

http://www.schubincafe.com/2014/05/14/a-philosophi...

The 2014 NAB Show seemed to be a social-media, IP-connected, 4K event. What does that mean? Is broadcast dead? The serial-digital interface (SDI)? HDTV? The 2/3-inch camera format? Join Mark Schubin as he looks at what was shown on the exhibit floor and puts it into a larger context. No one at the NAB show introduced a new lens mount this year. Find out why Mark considers that significant as he takes you on a tour from the sublime to the — well, “interesting.”
