  • Digital Compositing Is an Essential Part of Visual Effects, Which Are
    Digital compositing is an essential part of visual effects, which are everywhere in the entertainment industry today—in feature fi lms, television commercials, and even many TV shows. And it’s growing. Even a non- effects fi lm will have visual effects. It might be a love story or a comedy, but there will always be something that needs to be added or removed from the picture to tell the story. And that is the short description of what visual effects are all about— adding elements to a picture that are not there, or removing something that you don’t want to be there. And digital compositing plays a key role in all visual effects. The things that are added to the picture can come from practically any source today. We might be add- ing an actor or a model from a piece of fi lm or video tape. Or perhaps the mission is to add a spaceship or dinosaur that was created entirely in a computer, so it is referred to as a computer generated image (CGI). Maybe the element to be added is a matte painting done in Adobe Photoshop®. Some elements might even be created by the compositor himself. It is the digital compositor that takes these dis- parate elements, no matter how they were created, and blends them together artistically into a seam- less, photorealistic whole. The digital compositor’s mission is to make them appear as if they were all shot together at the same time under the same lights with the same camera, and then give the shot its fi nal artistic polish with superb color correction.

  • The Illusion of Choice: Parallels Between the Home Cinema Industry of the 1980S and Modern Streaming Services
    International Journal of Media, Journalism and Mass Communications (IJMJMC) Volume 5, Issue 4, 2019, PP 01-08 ISSN 2454-9479 http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2454-9479.0504001 www.arcjournals.org The Illusion of Choice: Parallels between the Home Cinema Industry of the 1980s and Modern Streaming Services Adam L. Miller* Aichi Shukutoku University, Aichi Pref, Sakuragaoka Ward 23, Nagoya City, Japan *Corresponding Author: Adam L. Miller, Aichi Shukutoku University, Aichi Pref, Sakuragaoka Ward 23, Nagoya City, Japan Abstract: This research article hopes to look at the prolific rise of VHS and home cinema in the 1980s; how it altered the viewing experiences of film-lovers, how the industry adapted to accommodate to this new market and how these viewing habits that started decades ago, still resonate today. The article will be drawing parallels between the VHS based home cinema of the 1980s to the subscription based streaming applications which are prolific today, using Netflix Inc. as the main point of focus. Keywords: “Film Studies;” “VHS;” “Home Cinema;” “Streaming” “Netflix;” 1. INTRODUCTION The article will go on to explore how the sudden emergence of home cinema in the 1980s allowed viewers to explore films, genres, filmmakers and content that is often referred to as „world cinema‟ that they may have otherwise been unaware of. It will be argued that streaming services have the same potential to expose viewers to a wide variety of content, but this potential may not be being fulfilled, as it is not in the best interests of streaming services to have viewers searching through unfamiliar territory.

  • Sony Pictures Classics Acquires Sundance Favorite Before Midnight
    SONY PICTURES CLASSICS ACQUIRES SUNDANCE FAVORITE BEFORE MIDNIGHT NEW YORK (January 25, 2013) - Sony Pictures Classics announced today that they have acquired all North American and UK rights to Richard Linklater’s BEFORE MIDNIGHT, the third installment to BEFORE SUNRISE and BEFORE SUNSET, starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. Like BEFORE SUNSET, the third film is written by Academy Award® nominees Linklater, Hawke and Delpy. Premiering to critical acclaim in the Premieres Section on Sunday evening at the Sundance Film Festival, BEFORE MIDNIGHT has been one of the most talked about films at the festival. The film is produced by Linklater, Christos V. Konstantakopoulos and Sara Woodhatch and executive produced by Jacob Pechenik, Martin Shafer, Liz Glotzer, and John Sloss. The deal was negotiated by SPC and Cinetic Media on behalf of the filmmakers. In BEFORE MIDNIGHT, we meet Celine and Jesse 9 years on. Almost 2 decades have passed since that first meeting on a train bound for Vienna, and we now find them in their early 40's in Greece. Before the clock strikes midnight, we will again become part of their story. "In 1991 we were in Sundance with SLACKER and we witnessed the birth of a major American filmmaker. At Sundance 2013 with BEFORE MIDNIGHT, we have further confirmation that Richard Linklater is a film master at the peak of his form. This one has it all as entertainment and as a work of cinematic art. It is a perfect movie made by not one but three auteurs, Rick, Ethan Hawke, and Julie Delpy. This movie will be incredibly successful around the world.
