Obviously, it is difficult to forecast in advance the trends and titles for sucha rapidly changing field, but the monograph series will seek /to treat from time to time those topics considered ,.most -urgent, Most viable and most relevant to the needs of the developing world. The first in the series focuses on recent develop- ments in the field of 8-mm film, especially the rapid and continuing transformation ofsuper 8 from what was originally an amateur medium into a growing ko- fessional tool with potential for -adaptationto tele- vision. The review of developments in 8-mm film should provide a handy reference for audio-visual production centres, for film and -television schools seeking economical training equipment, for teleyision organizations desirous of augmenting theirprogram- mes with less-costly inputs, and for communication .4 planners Prepaini to make decisions on projectthat =fight utilise , The basii for monograph is a numlCr of researches leading ti a doctoral thesis on the ise of 8 mm in evelog countries.

First, it was not possible to travel internationally in connexion with this study. Obtaining information by mail often proved difficult.. Secondly, 8-mm tech- nology is advanting so rapidly that it is extremely difficult to stay abreast of developments.

  • Šta Znače Oznake CAM, WP, TS, SCR, TC, R5, DVDRIP, HDTV?
    Šta znače oznake CAM, WP, TS, SCR, TC, R5, DVDRIP, HDTV? Ako vas zanima šta tačno označavaju skraćenice za kvalitet filmskog snimka: CAM, WP, TS, SCR, TC, R5, DVDRIP, HDTV, itd., pročitajte ovaj članak. Slijedi tabela kvaliteta filmskih snimaka, koja govori sa kog fizickog medija (kino snimak kamerom, original vhs kaseta, original dvd, itd) je film kopiran, u smjeru od najlošijeg kvaliteta ka najboljem. Tip Oznaka Rasprostranjenost Dosta čest format, mada se sve ređe Cam "CAM" pojavljuje, zbog postojanja DVD rip formata koji je daleko kvalitetniji Snimak filma napravljen kamerom u kinu, a zvuk je dobijen pomoću mikrofona na kameri, tako da se često vide i čuju i gledaoci u bioskopu. Ovaj kvalitet snimka se obično pojavi odmah nakon prve premijere filma u kinima Kvalitet video i audio zapisa je najčešće veoma loš. "WP" Workprint Vrlo rijedak "WORKPRINT" Kopija napravljena od nedovršene verzije filma. Uglavnom fale mnogi efekti i film može da se skroz razlikuje od konačne verzije filma. "TS" Telesync Vrlo čest "TELESYNC" Nasuprot popularnom vjerovanju, kvalitet kod TS video snimka ne mora da bude bolji od kvaliteta CAM snimka. Naziv Telesync ne označava bolji kvalitet VIDEO zapisa, nego bolji kvalitet AUDIO zapisa. Uglavnom je video snimak isti kao i CAM, a audio snimak bolji. Zbog toga se CAM veoma često brka sa TS. R5 "R5" Vrlo čest R5 Line je DVD verzija za region 5. Region 5 čine Istočna Evropa, (bivši SSSR), Indija, Afrika, Severna Koreja i Mongolija. Kvalitet R5 snimka se razlikuje od kvaliteta normalnog DVD-a po tome što je video snimak odličnog kvaliteta (kopiran sa DVD-a), a audio snimak je lošeg kvaliteta (kopiran sa Telecyne snimka, da bi se dobio zvuk originala, pošto je R5 DVD verzija obično prilagođena/sinhronizovana na jezik nekog od tih 5 regiona).

  • FILM FORMATS ------8 Mm Film Is a Motion Picture Film Format in Which the Filmstrip Is Eight Millimeters Wide
    FILM FORMATS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8 mm film is a motion picture film format in which the filmstrip is eight millimeters wide. It exists in two main versions: regular or standard 8 mm and Super 8. There are also two other varieties of Super 8 which require different cameras but which produce a final film with the same dimensions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Standard 8 The standard 8 mm film format was developed by the Eastman Kodak company during the Great Depression and released on the market in 1932 to create a home movie format less expensive than 16 mm. The film spools actually contain a 16 mm film with twice as many perforations along each edge than normal 16 mm film, which is only exposed along half of its width. When the film reaches its end in the takeup spool, the camera is opened and the spools in the camera are flipped and swapped (the design of the spool hole ensures that this happens properly) and the same film is exposed along the side of the film left unexposed on the first loading. During processing, the film is split down the middle, resulting in two lengths of 8 mm film, each with a single row of perforations along one edge, so fitting four times as many frames in the same amount of 16 mm film. Because the spool was reversed after filming on one side to allow filming on the other side the format was sometime called Double 8. The framesize of 8 mm is 4,8 x 3,5 mm and 1 m film contains 264 pictures.

    185 For presentation July 8, 1971, NATIONAL CABLE TELEVISION ASSOCIATION, Washington, D. C. TELECINE SYSTEMS FOR THE CATV ORIGINATION CENTER by Kenneth K. Kaylor Phil ips Broadcast Equipment Corp. Although 11 1 ive'' programming is considered a necessary part of the program origination services of a community-oriented CATV system, tele- cine facilities will hold the key to success or failure of such an operation from an economic standpoint. The word 11 tele-cine11 was developed during the early days of television broadcasting to define those facil i- ties devoted to the video reproduction of the various film media. Since the original commercial telecine television camera was an 11 iconoscope11 camera which had a very large sensitive surface (about 11 11 3 x 4 ), a film projector was focused onto the sensor by using a standard projection lens as shown in Fig. 1. This technique was quite simple and optical alignment was very easy. E1 im i nat i ng the 11 Shutte r Bar" effect In the case of motion picture film, the theatre projector had to be modified in order to prevent a "shutter bar" effect caused by the 186 difference in frame rates between television and motion picture stan­ dards. Standard sound motion picture film operates at 24 frames per second while the U. S. standard for television scanning is 30 frames per second. The intermittent mechanism had to be modified so that the 1ength of time between "pu 11 -downs" a 1 te rnates between 1/20 and 1/30 second. The average of these two fractions is 1/24 second, or the time demanded by the standard 24-frame-per-second motion picture projection rate.

  • SYNC EVENT the Ethnographic Allegory of Unsere Afrikareise
    SYNC EVENT The Ethnographic Allegory of Unsere Afrikareise Erik Rosshagen Department of Media Studies Master’s Thesis 30 HE credits Cinema Studies Master’s Programme in Cinema Studies Spring 2016 Supervisor: Associate Professor Malin Wahlberg SYNC EVENT The Ethnographic Allegory of Unsere Afrikareise Erik Rosshagen ABSTRACT The thesis aims at a critical reflexion on experimental ethnography with a special focus on the role of sound. A reassessment of its predominant discourse, as conceptualized by Cathrine Russell, is paired with a conceptual approach to film sound and audio- vision. By reactivating experimental filmmaker Peter Kubelka’s concept sync event and its aesthetic realisation in Unsere Afrikareise (Our Trip to Africa, Peter Kubelka, 1966) the thesis provide a themed reflection on the materiality of film as audiovisual relation. Sync event is a concept focused on the separation and meeting of image and sound to create new meanings, or metaphors. By reintroducing the concept and discussing its implication in relation to Michel Chion’s audio-vision, the thesis theorizes the audiovisual relation in ethnographic/documentary film more broadly. Through examples from the Russian avant-garde and Surrealism the sync event is connected to a historical genealogy of audiovisual experiments. With James Clifford’s notion ethnographic allegory Unsere Afrikareise becomes as a case in point of experimental ethnography at work. The sync event is comprehended as an ethnographic allegory with the audience at its focal point; a colonial critique performed in the active process of audio-viewing film.

  • Aspects of Television Temporality
    Aspects of Television Temporality By Andrzej Gwóźdź Fall 1999 Issue of KINEMA ON SOME ASPECTS OF TELEVISION TEMPORALITY If there is a film that makes the way of existence of its images the object of its discourse, then Cinema Paradiso (Nuovo Cinema Paradiso, by Giuseppe Tornatore, France/Italy, 1989) undoubtedly is that film. It is just here that in an almost demonstrative way the duality of a film iconosphere is shown: a pictorial passage on a film reel on the one hand, and immateriality of die luminous screen phantom on the other, a”film-reel” and a ”film-projection.”(1) It is here that the cinema shows its ontology as a mechanism of difference between materiality of a fundamental cinematographic apparatus and immateriality of a cinematic mechanism that actually results in the source of the cinema. If we were to look for a similar justification for the ontology of television, we would surely have to locate it within the ”time of expression,” that is, temporality immanent to a television image on which the ”time of contents” (2) of a programme structure of television is founded. Since theoreticians of the media agree that it is just time that is ”the major category of television,” that ”time is television’s basis, its principle of strutcturation, as well as its persistent reference”(3); that ”the attitude towards television should be basically derived from temporality”(4); that, finally, ”the essence of the [television] screen is [...] its permanent readiness to experience time.(5)” No matter what stratification of the time of television (television time) is suggested by particular writers, they usually agree on the fundamental ontological premise of television temporality.

  • 1 Digital Movie Piracy
    Digital Movie Piracy; A Perspective on Downloading Behaviour through Social Cognitive Theory Ruud S. Jacobs Abstract The current article attempts to refine and specify a model based on other researchers' applications of the Social Cognitive Theory originally posited by Bandura to allow the behaviour and attitudes downloaders exhibit to be analysed and compared to the amount of movies they consume (measured as an monthly average estimate). The new model is then tested against data obtained from college students as well as from a technological lifestyle forum. After the revisions these analyses suggested were applied, the model explained nearly 23% of the variance in the number of movies downloaded. The most important factors in this model were, among others: the drives to see many different and new movies, the social environment and its perceived attitude toward the behaviour, and the degree to which downloading has embedded itself in the daily routine. Because the Dutch government and lobbyists are superficially unclear about the current legislature, the unique opportunity existed to study the impact of knowing about legislature on the behaviour. Other results indicate an unexpected openness to an alternative film-distribution method where both the producers and the consumers get an honest deal, presenting options to release the current political and social tension without prosecuting an increasing portion of the population. Introduction When groundbreaking new technologies find their way into the commercial markets and end users' hands, unforeseen psychological and sociological consequences have often surprised both legislators and analysts alike. The World Wide Web is a prime example of a technological breakthrough that upset social status quo.
