Digital Imaging Technology
The Nuke-2D compositing software allows for the creation of complex interactive digital composites using relatively modest computing hardware.
Digital Imaging Technology
The ongoing influence of Lance Williams is exemplified in his three seminal papers \"Casting Shadows on Curved Surfaces,\" \"Pyramidal Parametrics\" and \"View Interpolation for Image Synthesis.\"
Digital Imaging Technology
This dominant commercial tracking system provides \"survey-free\" tracking, which significantly reduces the need for painstaking, error-prone measurements on sets.
Digital Imaging Technology
All current cel painting applications in the motion picture industry can be traced back to the original idea and pioneering implementation of Garland Stern.
Stage Operations
This self-contained, low bed picture car carrier and camera platform enables the safe, economic and realistic filming of action sequences that may involve principal actors and dialogue.
The Super 16mm film format has achieved a significant impact on the worldwide film industry by playing a major role in empowering low budget films to be produced for theatrical release.
Born from \"The Cinematographic Annual,\" first published by the ASC in 1930, the \"American Cinematographer Manual\" has become an essential bible for cinematographers. Currently in its eighth edition, this premier reference manual has had a significant impact on decades of motion picture photography around the world.

Things Have Changed
Special Photographic
Their broad professional influence in the industry continues to inspire and contribute to the advancement of computer-generated imagery for motion pictures.
Camera
This camera brings the full uncompromised performance of larger heavy-duty cameras to the lightest weight category with ruggedness and advanced features previously expected only in specialized or effects cameras.
Laboratory
This release print system at Deluxe Laboratories utilizes a revolutionary design allowing for higher print volumes, reduced space requirements for loop racks and elevators, and safer operation.
Camera
This camera motor, operated with programmable microprocessors, achieves an unprecedented range of precisely controlled speeds in stand-alone cameras or when synchronized to motion-control systems.
Sound
[These] digital audio dubbers have afforded the post-production community a faster, more cost-effective means of playing back hundreds of digital audio tracks for pre-mixing or final mixing in creating motion picture sound tracks. They also offer individual track slipping in multiple track configurations, random access recall, and both destructive and non-destructive editing capabilities, eliminating the requirements for razor blade conforming.

Lighting
With the ability to dim these very high powered lights at essentially constant Kelvin temperature and without flicker, these units produce a bright and even light source for general set lighting. The availability of very high wattage units allows production to extend the hours of work past the time when the crew would otherwise have \"lost the light.\"
Stage Operations
Considered a standard of the industry, the Fan Descender provides a means for significantly increasing the safety of very high stunt falls. The system permits falls to be made under controlled deceleration and with a highly predictable stopping point without limitation of camera angles.
Stage Operations
This unique photographic scenic backing allows a smooth transition from day to night views with a single backing. The Roscolight backings provide an important new creative tool to filmmakers, saving time, money and stage space.
Lenses and Filters
These projection lenses provide a significant improvement in the quality of the cinema viewing experience.
Lenses and Filters
The unique optical design of the Ultra-Star Plus projection lenses achieves unprecedented edge-to-edge uniformity of illumination, combined with a significant increase in screen brightness, thus providing a substantial improvement in the cinema viewing experience.
Systems
These systems digitally record live action camera and axis data with practically no impact on the live action production process, allowing compositing for visual effects to become faster and more cost-effective.
Special Photographic
This system streamlines the creation of 3D computer graphics models by allowing artists to convert the data from automatically scanned physical models into a user-specified configuration of patches well suited for use in computer applications.
