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

Creating Clean Plates Is Easier than Ever

Existing automation tools for background restoration are seldom specialized for stereo conversion. Addressing these needs, YUVsoft now offers an improved version of its 2D to 3D Suite with the powerful Background Reconstruction (BGR) tool. BGR enables quality temporal restoration of backgrounds for moving foreground objects, using information from other frames in the sequence. In other words, the tool generates the actual background as it appears in neighboring frames.

YUVsoft Adds Background Reconstruction Tool to its Stereo Generator Software. Win Stereo Generator Software & Bring Your 3D Ideas to Life! YUVsoft Corp., a developer of 2D-to-stereo-3D conversion and postproduction software, is enriching its Stereo Generator product with a new tool: Background Reconstruction (BGR). BGR simplifies and accelerates the creation of clean plates by automatically reconstructing background details.

Advanced stereo generation for a HQ conversion

Tutorial on advanced stereo generation explains how to amend the typical conversion artifacts, especially the ghosting effect. If high quality is required, it may necessitate cumbersome stereo painting, but such hassles are avoidable with a Stereo Generator (SG) option: edge smoothing. It is a last resort to cope with edge ghosting automatically. For a HQ conversion, the clean plates are unavoidable for certain shots. SG simplifies the application of clean plates without additional rotoscoping.

Easy fixing of 2D to stereo 3D conversion errors

Many typical conversion errors are easy and fast to fix without depth map correction and / or stereo painting. It's also possible to reduce the volume of necessary clean plates. Look how to do it very easy with Stereo generator - just set parallax, screen play level and here you go!

At NAB Show 2013, YUVsoft will demonstrate its Background Reconstruction (BGR) tool as a part of its flagship 2D to 3D Suite. The new tool simplifies and accelerates the creation of clean plates through automatic background reconstruction. It works efficiently for both camera and object motion. BGR employs temporal and spatial methods to reconstruct background details using the source 2D video (original video sample) and its depth map as input.
