Announced today at the Tribeca Film Festival, MakingOf.com is a new web portal founded by actress Natalie Portman and CEO Christine Aylward that focuses on sharing videos that discuss the behind-the-scenes process of making important films. There's a great deal of fascination regarding today's celebrities, the goal with MakingOf is to direct that interest towards an aspect with more substance. At launch the site includes more than 40 interviews with artists in film including Ron Howard, Marc Forster, and Michael Gondry. The site is divided into four sections; "Now Filming", offering behind-the-scenes looks at films currently hitting theatres, "Community" where users can gather for discussion, "Insiders" offering intimate interviews with key artists, and "The Vault" offering behind-the-scenes features from films no longer in theatrical release.
