Animation

Animation is a technique that frames of film are produced individually. It’s created as a computer graphic or photography or making changes to the first model. After doing all of this the final result is a special animation camera. In animations also appears the persistence of vision when there are many frames and the brain catches this succession like a movement. Animations are expensive to create and produces and these animations are created in professional studios. These animations are cartoons that fist was on movie theaters and then they moved to television. This technique used digital technologies in all their productions.

He's just not that into you

This is a movie about love. It talks about the different types of women to see and feel the love feeling. Some of them had problems in their marriage cause the perfect husband feel attracted by a younger woman and have a secret relationship with she. Other type of problems that some people had are the ones that live many years together but the husband don’t want to get marriage because he had a different kind of thinking of marriage. Other kind women that want to be loved is that she think that men make signals to symbolized he is love on you, but the truth is that we, woman, don’t have to belief everything that a man says because they had their ways to convinced us to belief and trust on them. This movie is about all the different kind of problems in relationships and for me is very interesting, because it talks about the truth of our feelings about a relationship. You must see it…

Creative impact of sound in film

During the 20’s were full of talkies and silent movies because there wasn’t the technology that permits the perfect sound. Also they don’t have the abilities to use the technology advanced. The technology was improving and people started to study how to use the new method. Sounds film gave more genres than the silent films. It had more advantage technologic and people more sophisticated working for them. The first classic style Hollywood musical was The Broadway Melody in 1929. In many countries musical films started to appear creating many different forms of films like comedy, horror, gothic, etc. American movies started to became popular having a lot of dialog and songs. Cartoon appeared in 1937 with the fist English-speaking animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. This period of years was a major year for America.

Fireproof

This is a movie about a couple that had a lot of problems. Caleb, the husband, was a hero because he was a fireman and the objective of him was to save people even though he had to risk his life. He had two different kind of life in each day. In his work he save people and risk it everything for them, but in his home he always fight with his wife, Catherine. One day they realized that they can’t support their relationship anymore and Catherine told him to broke up. Both were decided to finish that relation. Caleb’s father, John, decided to present to his son a 40-Day experiment called "Te Love Dare" that he and his mother did. At fist impression of Caleb was negative but then he let his father convinced him and he decided to do the experiment. Catherine was brave to rejected the many things that Caleb was doing like giving flowers, chocolates and the most important give that he gave to she was paying a chair that Catherine was paying little by little for her mom that was sick. The experiment at the beginning was going bad, but then finally Catherine was convinced that her husband was changing and was for her. Caleb found peace and answers when his dad told him to talk to God, because he is the only one who can help people like that. He started praying and little by little the things were going better. Finally, both noticed that they need each other and the only thing that was missing was believed in them. For me this is a great movie, because we can noticed that even the most strong and brave man like a fireman need some help in some cases and also it reflect to us the feelings that those people had. A couple is a beautiful feeling that when they forget about loving and making things to represent the love the things will going down. So, if you love someone you must demonstrate all the love that you had.

Thin Film Technology

Thin Film Technology utilizes thin film processes to build passive components used in data-communication, medical, computer, test equipment, power supplies, and automotive markets. TFT's wide variety of products include; termination networks, precision resistors, low pass & high pass filters, inductors, capacitors and delay lines. TFT's products are utilized in applications ranging from signal conditioning, compensation networks, equalization & de-emphasis, timing & deskew, to a myriad of other applications. Precision resistors hold tight resistance tolerances over life in addition to having low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) for maintaining their designed value. Gain equalizers and filters flatten the frequency response of transmission lines. Delay lines control sub-nanosecond timing & deskew issues while maintaining signal fidelity in the time domain. In Film we can noticed that there is important many things that maybe we don´t know that exist, because is all about technology and that is not interesting for us. It have a hole company that takes care of that part of film. As we know, technology is the base of film because without it we can see anything in movement that film transmitte to us. So, this company is very important of everything that talk about of films,movies,pictures,etc.

In this movie we can noticed that true love is in everywhere, we can find it even though we are in our worst problems, but what we have to do is to be secured of every step you are going to take because that can be a little thig that will change for complete your life. Also we can said that if we love someone very very much it doesn´t care if you are in the other part of the world because you trust to him/her and your love can make everything... What do you think about this?

History of film

The history of film spans over a hundred years, from the latter part of the 19th century to the present day and beyond. Motion pictures developed gradually from a carnival novelty to one of the most important tools of communication and entertainment, and mass media in the 20th century. Motion picture films have had a substantial impact on the arts, technology, and politics.

Precursors of film

Plays and dances had elements common to films- scripts, sets, lighting, costumes, production, direction, actors, audiences, storyboards, and scores. They preceded film by thousands of years. Much terminology later used in film theory and criticism applied, such as mise en scène. Moving visual images and sounds were not recorded for replaying as in film.The camera obscura was pioneered by Alhazen in his Book of Optics and was later perfected near the year 1600 by Giambattista della Porta. Light is inverted through a small hole or lens from outside, and projected onto a surface or screen, creating a projected moving image, indistinguishable from a projected high quality film to an audience, but it is not preserved in a recording.In 1740 and 1748, David Hume published Treatise of Human Nature and An Enj bvb uiry concerning Human Understanding, arguing for the associations and causes of ideas with visual images, in some sense forerunners to the language of film.Moving images were produced on revolving drums and disks in the 1830s with independent invention by Simon von Stampfer (Stroboscope) in Austria, Joseph Plateau (Phenakistoscope) in Belgium and William Horner (zoetrope) in Britain.

The silent era

In the silent era of film, marrying the image with synchronous sound was not possible for inventors and producers, since no practical method was devised until 1923. Thus, for the first thirty years of their history, movies were silent, although accompanied by live musicians and sometimes sound effects and even commentary spoken by the showman or projectionist.Illustrated songs were a notable exception to this trend that began in 1894 in vaudeville houses and persisted as late as the late 1930s in movie theaters. In this early precursor to the music video, live performance or sound recordings were paired with hand-colored glass slides projected through stereopticons and similar devices. In this way, song narrative was illustrated through a series of slides whose changes were simultaneous with the narrative development. The main purpose of illustrated songs was to encourage sheet music sales, and they were highly successful with sales reaching into the millions for a single song. Later, with the birth of film, illustrated songs were used as filler material preceding films and during reel changes.In most countries the need for spoken accompaniment quickly faded, with dialogue and narrcmcjnnation presented in intertitles, but in Japanese cinema it remained popular throughout the silent era.

The Major Film Studios: The Big Five

1920-1930 was the decade between the end of the Great War and the Depression following the Stock Market Crash. Film theaters and studios were not initially affected in this decade by the Crash in late 1929. The basic patterns and foundations of the film industry (and its economic organization) were established in the 1920s. The studio system was essentially born with long-term contracts for stars, lavish production values, and increasingly rigid control of directors and stars by the studio's production chief and in-house publicity departments. After World War I and into the early 1920s, America was the leading producer of films in the world - using Thomas Ince's "factory system" of production, although the system did limit the creativity of many directors. Production was in the hands of the major studios (that really flourished after 1927 for almost 20 years), and the star system was burgeoning.
Originally, in the earliest years of the motion picture industry, production, distribution, and exhibition were separately controlled. When the industry rapidly grew, these functions became integrated under one directorship to maximize profits, something called vertical integration. There were eight major (and minor) studios (see below) that dominated the industry. They were the ones that had most successfully consolidated and integrated all aspects of a film's development. By 1929, the film-making firms that were to rule and monopolize Hollywood for the next half-century were the giants or the majors, sometimes dubbed The Big Five. They produced more than 90 percent of the fiction films in America and distributed their films both nationally and internationally. Each studio somewhat differentiated its products from other studios.

Dear John

Hello my friends. Today I want to tell you about a beautiful movie that I saw 2 months ago. It's called "Dear John". Well it is about a soldier named, John Tyree, that when he saw Savannah Curtis, a college girl, for his first time in the beach both fall in love. John will only stayed with Savvannah for the spring break becuase he had to go to a war. When they were separated they communicated by letters and that gave John the force to fight and saw Savvannah again. They were completely in love that the distance didn't matter for them. But suddenly something terrible happened, Savvannah wrote in a letter that she couldn't continue writing, so she decided to marry someone that was very closed to her. That letter was the last John received. The years passed quickly and John and Savvannah saw each other again, they started to talk about everything that happened and became friends. After that they returned to send letters again. Well, we all know the ending because is obviously that was a happy ending, but if you want to know how it ends you can watch the movie or the synopsis to know more about this great movie. For me this was the most romantic movie I have ever sawn, because was a mixture of everything like war, love, letters, death and many other topics that are very interesting.
