Stop-motion Filming and Performance: A Guide to Cameras, Lighting and Dramatic Techniques

Stop-motion animation has long been perceived as a technical practice rather than a creative, demanding art. Though stop-motion requires considerable technical knowledge, it also involves aesthetics and artistry that go beyond the technician’s realm. Just as important as puppet mechanics are lighting, filters, lenses, camera angle and placement, and dramatic pose and movement. This manual is a complete guide to the aesthetics of stop-motion animation. Information is organized in an intuitive, easy-to-use structure, following the order an animator uses in setting up and then executing a scene. The first half concentrates on the aesthetics of lighting and cameras, a primary concern in any shot, with details of camera placement, various lenses and myriad lighting techniques. The second half deals with the process of performance art, an oft-overlooked aspect of stop-motion animation. Included is a commentary on body language, facial expression, gesture, movement and emotion—key concepts that are exemplified through the acting process. The work also offers an introduction to narrative form and a glossary of related terms.

Performance Lighting Design: How to light for the stage, concerts and live events (Backstage)

New technologies have made lighting more prominent in live performances of all kinds, not just stage theatre, and in many courses lighting has been subsumed into 'performance lighting'. Performance Lighting Design is a practical guide to the art and technique of lighting for the stage, concerts, and live events. The book will also cover the use of projected images in performance including projected scenery on the West End stage, in fringe shows, and on the stadium "rock" stage, as well as the use of images from live camera and from other sources as "performers".

The book will serve students of lighting design and will also be accessible to anyone with an awareness of technical theatre. Practical knowledge is combined with aesthetic and theoretical considerations. The book will also address the difficult area of getting inspiration and evolving design ideas through a broad range of performance genre. The author will discuss the pros and cons of several computer based techniques, and incorporate 25 years of his own professional experience in the UK and Europe.

Mechanisms involved in enhancing human performance by changing the lighting in the industrial workplace [An article from: International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics]

This digital document is a journal article from International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, published by Elsevier in . The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
This paper addresses the question: ''What is happening when we change the lighting at an industrial workplace?'' and develops a new approach for looking at the effects of a change of lighting at the workplace on performance. Installing new lighting in the workplace may influence the performance of people working there by way of several mechanisms. In this paper the mechanisms are described: visual performance, visual comfort, visual ambience, interpersonal relationships, biological clock, stimulation, job satisfaction, problem solving, the halo effect, and the change process. The importance of these mechanisms is discussed and the results of old field studies in industrial environments have been put together to illustrate the effect of lighting change in industry. Relevance to industry: To be able to estimate the influence of lighting and lighting change in industrial environment it is essential to collect and separate the mechanisms which are involved to the lighting change process. This helps both practitioners and researchers for concentrating their efforts in the field of industrial lighting.

Teaching and Training Techniques: Lighting the Way to Performance Excellence

There have always been great teachers who love teaching and whose students find learning to be a pleasant and highly successful experience. Great teachers are like Olympic athletes and other award winning performers. They have an abundance of effective strategies and a magical way of making everything work smoothly. That magic is called technique.

Effective technique in almost any endeavor is what separates the stars from the rest. The purpose of this resource is to provide insight into the powerful techniques of star teachers and trainers and into the magical way they use those techniques to succeed every time.

Outdoor Lighting: Physics, Vision and Perception

This book covers theoretical aspects that are at the basis of lighting installations. It focuses on insight, backgrounds and coherence.

There are many fundamental aspects that are essential for understanding why different ways to install and use lighting give different results. A purely pragmatic approach to solving practical lighting problems will lead to pitfalls. But as this book shows, on the basis of fundamental considerations on optics, light sources and vision, causes and effects that tend to be overlooked by lighting engineers and designers can be identified. The selection of subjects in this book is based on more than 50 years of experience in studying the fundamental and practical applications of lighting and vision. The author has given classes on these topics, in master courses at post-graduate and post-doctoral levels.

The significance of mesopic visual performance and its use in developing a mesopic photometry system [An article from: Building and Environment]

This digital document is a journal article from Building and Environment, published by Elsevier in . The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
In this research work detection rate was measured to evaluate the visual performance of human eyes at three mesopic light levels: 0.01, 0.1 and 1cdm^-^2. Effects on visual performance at mesopic levels were analysed and spectral sensitivity curves were indirectly drawn based on the visual performance values. A comparison between the research results of the brightness-matching method and the performance-based method proves that the results from the latter method are in essence compatible with the results from the bright-matching method, since they are both in accordance with the Purkinje shift. Furthermore, the results of the performance-based method reflect the contribution of the colour channel in the visual information processing system.
