C-SPAN was created by the cable industry in 1979 as a gift to the American people and today with their stellar reputation, they are more relevant than ever. Unique to media as a non-profit, C-SPAN is a true public service of the cable and satellite providers that fund it. It’s thanks to the support of so many Cable TV Pioneers that C-SPAN has thrived. Many have served on C-SPAN’s board of directors, while others committed to add the services to their channel line-ups. So many local cable folks have welcomed C-SPAN into their markets to meet with the community and work with educators and local officials.
  • The Uses of Animation 1

    The Uses of Animation 1

    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

  • 1. Il Quadro Economico E Regolamentare

    1. Il Quadro Economico E Regolamentare

    Il sistema globale delle comunicazioni 1. IL QUADRO ECONOMICO E REGOLAMENTARE Lo sviluppo della tecnologia digitale sta ridisegnando i confini tra i di- versi servizi di telecomunicazione, le trasmissioni radiotelevisive ed i servizi informatici on line. Tradizionalmente, infatti, tali servizi erano forniti attraverso reti e piattaforme differenti; oggi, invece, la tecnolo- gia digitale è in grado di fornire una codificazione comune e una mag- giore capacità di banda così da poter veicolare più servizi di comuni- cazione sulle stesse reti. Paradigma del veloce progredire di tale fe- nomeno di convergenza è il rapido sviluppo di Internet, Rete delle re- ti oramai in grado di fornire una varietà completa di servizi di comu- nicazione, compresa la telefonia vocale e la televisione. La conver- genza dei servizi, stimolata dal progresso tecnologico, ed i conse- guenti cambiamenti nelle strutture del mercato costituiscono il punto di partenza ma anche la sfida per le attività di regolamentazione del- le comunicazioni. Innanzitutto il quadro giuridico-regolamentare si presenta ancora frammentato. In Europa, ma anche negli Stati Uniti, le norme relative alla televisione, alle telecomunicazioni e ad Internet sono diverse. Anche i principi ispiratori sono differenti. La televisione (in Europa) viene per lo più regolamentata per assicurare il pluralismo politico e sociale. Le telecomunicazioni rispondono a imperativi di carattere economico-concorrenziale. Internet presenta maggiore flessibilità ma con il rischio che una liberalità derivante dal carattere innovativo del mezzo presti il fianco ad abusi o a sviluppi non uniformi nei vari pae- si. Inoltre, nella maggior parte dei paesi, le istituzioni responsabili della regolamentazione nel settore della radiotelevisione e delle tele- comunicazioni sono distinte l’una dall’altra.
