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

Precomposed ZIP Kit Overview

DVD menus are notorious for being bland. They take time to make and usually turn out to be the least impressive element in a production. After the many hard-worked hours that it takes to complete a project, you don't want the DVD menu to ruin the delivery of an awesome production. Remember: the DVD menu is the first thing that the client will see when they pop that little disc in. You need it to be impressive.

After Effects Preset: Rolling Shutter Fix

November 12, 2012, 01:25 PM

http://cineblur.com/after-effects-preset-rolling-s...

If you shoot with DSLR's, or any camera with a CMOS sensor, you’re bound to run into the "rolling shutter” issue when panning. I'm not going to explain in detail why this happens, but it basically makes your footage look crooked and slanted when you pan sideways really quickly.
