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

In this new tutorial from Tim Clapham, you will build the ULTIMATE Cinema 4D Camera Rig! Ok, maybe ULTIMATE (all caps) is pushing it… HELL NO! This rig is pretty darned good and we think you’re going to love it. Tim teaches not only the technical construction of this rig using Xpresso and User Data, but he also demonstrates it’s versatility by showing practical examples of how you might use this in your own projects.

Welcome back to some recent news on After Effects. The media landscape for AE hasn’t changed much too much in recent years, even through the 2020 pandemic and political circuses — if you don’t count the absence of user groups and conferences or sudden streaming of events!

If you’ve watched The Boys, the Amazon Original drama series from Prime Video, then you know it’s a comic book series with a difference. I’ve covered the visual effects of the show a few times, including being lucky enough to sit in on a review session with VFX supervisor Stephan Fleet.

How was that amazing mirror shot in Contact *really* done? What could the stuffie version of Goose the cat do on the set of Captain Marvel? How might the future of cinema look with purpose-built immersive pods?

We have these barriers that we put on ourselves because we set our reality to be around these limitations. We tell ourselves we can’t do something. Or that art doesn’t pay. Or that the industry sucks. These are the constraints — or excuses — we put on ourselves to dismiss the possibility of what could be real. That becomes our reality. So how many things like this are you telling yourself?
