General Policies and Procedures 1. The purpose of the San Francisco Art Institute Film Checkout Office is to provide equipment for all classes and students enrolled in classes for the Fall 2011/Spring 2012 academic term. All classes have priority for equipment/studio reservations over individual students. 2. Students wishing to check out equipment who are not currently enrolled in an classes for the Fall 2011/Spring 2012 academic term but are still registered at SFAI must have successfully completed a equipment certification and have a slip on file. SFAI alumni and non-registered students may not checkout any equipment or use any studios. 3. Film Student Monitors are present to uphold these policies and procedures in addition to helping facility users with equipment and facilities. If you are having problems with the equipment or are running into any other difficulties, ask for help and a monitor or staff member will try to assist you as best as possible. Please be curious and patient with student monitors, tutors and staff members. This a tightly knit community, don’t burn bridges! 4. Students borrowing equipment must have read and abide by all Film Department access policies and procedures in addition to being familiar with proper equipment use and safety measures. 5. All Film Department equipment is for use in the State of California only. Both the Film Equipment Supervisor and the Area One Manager must approve use of Film Department equipment out of State, and the student must show proof of insurance to cover the replacement cost of equipment borrowed. 6. The Film Equipment Supervisor shall make final decisions regarding any schedule conflicts, equipment use, studio use, hours of operation, etc. 7. The Film Department studio facilities have been designed to accommodate the general needs of the students it services. The staff request that NO HARDWARE and/or SOFTWARE CHANGES be made to any system. Should you need assistance, please feel free to ask an Area One Staff member who will try to assist you as best as possible. 8. Any individual may be denied use of the Film Department equipment and/or access to its facilities at any time if any misuse or abuse of any equipment, reservation privileges, and equipment use policies, improper conduct or behavior which is hazardous or disturbing to others occurs. 9. Students wishing to shoot on campus outside of a designated Film Studio must clear any production with the Area One Manager. II. Equipment & Studio Certification (Training Session + Certification Exam) 1. In order to reserve or use the Film Department’s equipment & studios, all students must obtain Certified Status on every piece of equipment or studio they wish to checkout or use. This is done by a SFAI staff member and/or qualified student tutor. 2. Certified Status can be obtained after attending a Training Session and the passing of a practical, hands-on Certification Exam demonstrating knowledge of proper equipment use and function, general maintenance and safety measures. 3. Sign up during business hours at the Film Checkout Office Front Desk Training/Certification Calendar. Sessions are held Tues-Thurs during the day and you may sign up to 2 weeks in advance. (Sessions are subject to cancellation or postponement at any time in which case we will notify you as far in advance as possible by email.) 4. All certifications stop on Friday, October 28 for Fall 2011. Please plan ahead as there will be no certifications available until the next semester! (Specific equipment or studio certification sessions will vary widely daily & weekly. Please see the film checkout office Training/Certification Calendar for available sessions.) 5. After the cut-off period we will focus our attention & resources to Technique Workshops. These are not required certifications to checkout equipment. Rather these workshops are sponsored by SFAI Graduate Students who will demonstrate how to apply technical knowledge and specific techniques to their own art practice. (Please see the film checkout office Technique Workshop Calendar for available sessions after October 28th 2011) 6. All sessions are done in groups of up to (5) five students maximum per session, No Exceptions. (There will be a wait-list available next to the calendar if someone cancels.) 7. Sessions can last from 1-2 hrs including Training (1-1.5 hrs) & Certification Exam (0.5- 1hr) Please allow proper time to complete this process as we will not rush to meet each students various schedules. 8. You may sign up for (1) Equipment Session and (1) Studio Session per week. Please do not procrastinate or cram sessions right before the training session cut-off of Oct. 28th 2011. This only adds strain to our limited resources and staff. 9. Certifications may be provided in class if a Faculty/Professor has arranged it with the Film Equipment Supervisor and is based on resource availability. Please ask Faculty for details. 10. Students who have been certified on a piece of equipment/studio do not need to renew certification for the duration of their time at SFAI unless they feel they need a refresher orientation. 11. If you feel you have sufficient previous experience in a specific piece of equipment from another school/job and you are a Sophomore level student or higher, you may “test out” on that item. If you do not pass the certification exam you will be require to reschedule on another day. Studio Certifications does not apply. Please see Film Equipment Supervisor for details. III. Limitations 1. Most equipment is available to any SFAI student from any major (undergrad & graduate) with a few exceptions. 2. The following equipment items are restricted to students of Sophomore standing & above. No exceptions. ● Sony EX-1 ● Panasonic AF-100 ● Aaton LTR ● Redrock Micro Follow Focus 3.

  • Camera Basics, Principles and Techniques –MCD 401 VU Topic No
    Camera Basics, Principles and techniques –MCD 401 VU Topic no. 76 Film & Video Conversion Television standards conversion is the process of changing one type of TV system to another. The most common is from NTSC to PAL or the other way around. This is done so TV programs in one nation may be viewed in a nation with a different standard. The TV video is fed through a video standards converter that changes the video to a different video system. Converting between a different numbers of pixels and different frame rates in video pictures is a complex technical problem. However, the international exchange of TV programming makes standards conversion necessary and in many cases mandatory. Vastly different TV systems emerged for political and technical reasons – and it is only luck that makes video programming from one nation compatible with another. History The first known case of TV systems conversion probably was in Europe a few years after World War II – mainly with the RTF (France) and the BBC (UK) trying to exchange their441 line and 405 line programming. The problem got worse with the introduction of PAL, SECAM (both 625 lines), and the French 819 line service. Until the 1980s, standards conversion was so difficult that 24 frame/s 16 mm or 35 mm film was the preferred medium of programming interchange. Overview Perhaps the most technically challenging conversion to make is the PAL to NTSC. PAL is 625 lines at 50 fields/s NTSC is 525 lines at 59.94 fields/s (60,000/1,001 fields/s) The two TV standards are for all practical purposes, temporally and spatially incompatible with each other.

English Welcome We hope you share our dream for the television industry to become a truly creative industry by allowing anyone to have access to the highest quality video. Previously, high end television and post production required investment in millions of dollars of hardware, however with Blackmagic Design video hardware, even Ultra HD 60p is now easily affordable. We hope you get years of use from your new UltraStudio, DeckLink or Intensity and have fun working with some of the world’s hottest television and design software! This instruction manual should contain all the information you’ll need on installing your Blackmagic Design video hardware. If you’re installing a PCI Express card, it’s always a good idea to ask a technical assistant for help if you have not installed hardware cards into computers before. As Blackmagic Design video hardware uses uncompressed video and the data rates are quite high, you’ll need fast disk storage and a high end computer. We think it should take you approximately 10 minutes to complete installation.

Films are more than entertainment. They inspire, inform, and may even become part of our culture. And for many people films offer jobs and a career path. Painting, literature, dance and other theaters have existed for thousands of years, but films came into existence only a little more than a century ago. Yet in this fairly short span, the newcomer has established itself as an energetic and powerful art form. But this art form has some unusual features we should admit up front. More than most arts, film depends on complex technology. Without machines, movies wouldn’t move and film makers would have no tools. In addition, film art usually requires collaboration among many participants, people who follow well-proven work routines. Films are not only created but also produced. 2 This report gives you an abstract idea about how the films are made, it deals with the three stages or steps involved in film production which are pre-production, production, and post-production.

  • DAVINCI Resolve
    Color Grading in DAVINCI Resolve davinci resolve Resolve is a professional grade color correction and grading suite that is widely considered as the industry standard tool for image manipulation in post-production. It can be a powerful tool in your post-production workflow and attention to color can greatly improve the quality of your work. This guide will be a step-by-step guide for integrating Color Correction and Grading into your workflow, introduce you to the color correction tools in Resolve, and include some best practices. In this guide we are using version 14.3.1 the differences between Free & Studio versions of Davinci Resolve: Resolve (Free Version) Has support for SD/HD & UHD projects up to a resolution of 3840 x 2160px Resolve Studio Supports SD/HD/UHD, DCI-4K, 5K, and greater(8K) projects Supports Stereoscopic/3D Media Includes Real-Time Noise Reduction Can utilize CUDA GPU Support for faster rendering ver. 2019-03-29 Page 1 of 28 Color Grading in Resolve important considerations calibrated reference monitors Keep in mind that while it is possible to colorgrade from your laptop, or desktop computer it is far from ideal, understand that there are huge differences among displays, even between similiar models and manufacturers, and even the color & lights of a room you are in can influence your attention to color. It is best to know the intended way your project will be played back, either via Web, Installation, DCI-Projection, or Broadcast and have an understanding of what colorspace it will playback in, what standards(if any) you need to conform to, and if there is a gamma or color shift for that format.

  • An Accidental Archive
    1 An Accidental Archive: A Case Study of IndieCollect by Lorena Ramírez-López A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Moving Image Archiving and Preservation Program Department of Cinema Studies New York University May 2015 Final submission September 2015 2 Table of contents Introduction 3 Accidental Archives 7 IndieCollect 22 IndieCollect’s databases 31 Conclusion 41 APPENDIX A: Colorlab Pricelist 49 Appendix B: IndieCollect’s Partners 59 Bibliography 60 3 Introduction The transition from a physical analog medium like film to the less tangible digital medium is a 21st century phenomenon that many artists, scholars, archivists, and even viewers have commented on from different perspectives. Despite the fact that all of these developing opinions relate to the same phenomenon, Giovanni Fossati points out in From Grain to Pixel: The Archival Life of Film in Transition (2009), that although both film archivists and film scholars are dealing with similar dilemmas of re-evaluating film and questioning its nature, the dialogue between them is limited. At this crucial moment of changing technologies and concepts there is insufficient dialogue between film archives and academia. Caught up in everyday practicalities, film archivists rarely have time to reflect on the nature of film and on the consequences deriving from new technologies on the viability of film as a medium. On the other hand, researchers investigating the ontology of the medium theorize future scenarios at a much faster pace than practice can keep up with, often without considering the material and institutional realities underlying the medium. This situation is leading to an increasing estrangement between theory and practice.

  • The Convergence of Finishing and Color Grading in Commercial Post
    Autodesk® Creative Finishing 2011 The Convergence of Finishing and Color Grading in Commercial Post The purpose of this paper is to help artists and owners better prepare their facilities for a converged services model that combines color grading and visual effects as the new approach to high-end finishing. In commercial post, color grading is finding its way into the supervised finishing suite turning the traditional workflow for high-end commercial post on its head. Forward-thinking facilities are building new business models around a converged workflow that takes advantage of this industry shift, and gives VFX artists more creative control. THE CONVERGENCE OF FINISHING AND COLOR GRADING IN COMMERCIAL POST Overview Color grading has reached the tipping point of democratization. Contributing factors include the popularity of acquiring content in raw digital formats, increased accessibility to color data in all-data workflows, and the availability of low-cost color grading tools. These trends have created a demand for grading at all levels of post-production and have eroded the value of specialized color grading services in high-end finishing. While color grading remains an important component of commercial post-production, today’s advertising clients are challenging post-production facilities to streamline processes and save costs, while still delivering superior finished results. A natural solution has surfaced: bringing real-time color grading into the finishing suite alongside 3D visual effects. This new single process gives small- to mid-size facilities the opportunity to attract and retain clients with professional color grading services, and provides finishing artists with more creative control over color, lighting, and 3D compositing.
