...It Started with a Vision The creative mind of George Lucas has developed many different movies with different subject matter. Many of these movies, namely Star Wars, have pushed the envelope in the realm of special effects and sound. His demand for better special effects and sound increased the overall technology in the film industry, and continues to do so today with his company Industrial Light and Magic. In all of Lucas' films, his main concern is getting his view across to the audience. He wants to portray his vision in the most vivid way possible so the audience can hopefully get a grasp of what message he is trying to get across, or what item he wants to address. Trying to get his idea across became an obsession for Lucas. The scene had to be almost entirely what he envisioned. In fact, Lucas would go to excessive lengths in creating a near perfect scene in comparison to other directors of his day. He further displayed his perfectionism when he wrote out screenplays. For example, "he only used No. 2 lead pencils, making his tiny print almost impossible to read" (Pollock 143). On the set, Lucas was a mastermind and a compulsive creator of visual imagery. Off the set, he was a creative coordinator. He spent countless hours developing the plot, story line, and dialogues of his movies. He then spent what time he had left pitching those scripts and ideas, and developing new ones. George wrote in a letter to his wife during the filming of Star Wars, "I forget how impossible...

...Bellflower Analysis After watching the film Bellflower I was able to see the difficulties and successes in filming and independent movie. There are many obvious difficulties that seem to come with any independent film. One of the most obvious is the tightness of the budget. It was hard to identify where a studio shot film could have spent more, because the director Evan Glodell’s skills as an engineer. Evan was able to create a more expensive looking film with his homemade pyrotechnics, which include his car and flamethrower. Yet, even with those features, the film still showed instances in which money seemed tight. Glodell seemed to be able to save money by reusing settings. The majority of the film was shot inside his character, Woodrow’s home, and his girlfriend, Milly’s home. A studio made film is able to show its expensive budget through its many locations. Another con in independent filmmaking is the scarcity of time and resources. In Bellflower, many of the scenes had only one take. An example of this would be the beginning and ending of the film. The film starts with Woodrow shooting a propane tank and ends with a wild “Medusa” drifting down the road. It is difficult to get a perfect take on only one shot. For the shot to be perfect a lot of little things have to go right. Studio made films have an upper hand in this instance. With the time and ability to take multiple takes, the director is able to create a perfect scene. ...

...George Walton Lucas, Jr. (born May 14, 1944) is an American film producer, screenwriter, director, and entrepreneur. He founded Lucasfilm Limited and led the company as chairman and chief executive before selling it to The Walt Disney Company on October 30, 2012. He is best known as the creator of the space opera franchise Star Wars and the archaeologist adventurer character Indiana Jones. Lucas is one of the American film industry's most financially successful filmmakers . Contents Early life and education George Lucas was born in Modesto, California, the son of Dorothy Ellinore Lucas and George Walton Lucas, Sr. ,who owned a stationery store. Lucas grew up in the Central Valley town of Modesto, and his early passion for cars and motor racing would eventually serve as inspiration for his USC student film 1:42.08, as well as his Oscar-nominated low-budget phenomenon, American Graffiti. Long before Lucas became obsessed with film making, he wanted to be a race-car driver, and he spent most of his high school years racing on the underground circuit at fairgrounds and hanging out at garages. On June 12, 1962, while driving his souped-up fiat, another driver broadsided him, flipping over his car, nearly killing him, causing him to lose interest in racing as a career. He attended Modesto Junior College, where he studied, amongst other subjects, anthropology, sociology and literature. Lucas transferred to the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts...

...African American Movie Paper HUM/105 November 19, 2012 Danielle Jones Out of all the great African-American films out there, I decided to write on a film, which is still considered to be a classic to this day, “Cooley High.” The film takes place in Chicago, 1964, and centers on a group of lower-class black kids, including Preach, a smart student, and his close friend, Cochise, a great athlete who's on the verge of getting a scholarship. This film has been compared to be the black version of George Lucas' "American Graffiti"; the film has a lot of energy and substance to easily overlook that fact. There are many funny moments, including a scene where the boys joyride with Preach behind the wheel; a scene where the boys cut class and head to the zoo, ending with a hilarious encounter with a gorilla; and a scene where Preach hides from some hoodlums in an bathroom that is occupied. There's also romance in the film, as Preach attempts to woo classy beauty Brenda; the two even lose their virginity together in a truly tasteful scene. The movie ends in tragedy, and since the characters have depth, we feel the loss. “Cooley High” set the standard for African-American film excellence when it was made. This film plays on various emotions, and you definitely feel for all of the characters. Sure, some of the acting is a little wooden, but fortunately, those parts aren't pivotal. The music is sensational, with classic songs from Motown and...

...Father of Accounting Luca Pacioli Sandra Jameson Thesis Accounting Luca Pacioli Who is Luca Pacioli and why is he important in the world of accounting? With hard work and dedication you can succeed with many things in life. Luca Pacioli was often called the father of accounting. He was a poor boy that most saw as having an unpromising future. Yet he worked hard and studied harder doing something that he loved and even now he is well known and very famous for everything he has done. We even still to this day use a lot of his writings in the educational fields of mathematics. Luca Pacioli even has several things that have been named after him since he died. Luca Pacioli kept many journals and ledgers in his life. However through the years some information has been lost about Luca Pacioli, for example the year he was born. Out of all the documentaries and other papers that I found on Luca Pacioli they all state that he was probably born around the year 1445. He was born in a small town called Sansepulcro, Tuscany. His family was poor, and his future seemed very unpromising. However starting at a young age he started working towards becoming great. Pacioli joined a Franciscan monastery and became an apprentice to a local businessman. However he soon abandoned his apprenticeship to become a mathematics scholar. He soon thereafter befriended an artist Piero Della Francesca. Francesca and Pacioli journeyed to the Appenines where Francesca gave Pacioli...

...Central Luzon State University College of Arts and Sciences Department of Psychology The Golden Ratio: Reference of Beauty Submitted to: Nixon Agaser Submitted by: Jam Shimei I. Gamboa Jeanne R. Dadufalza Eden Leigh Pagoso Micah A. Montes The Golden Ratio: Reference of Beauty Beauty has been defined as a combination of qualities that give pleasure to the senses or to the mind. It is a philosophical concept, the aspects of which are studied under the term aesthetics, derived from the Greek word for perception (aisthesis). Aesthetics, therefore, is the study of beauty and, to a lesser extent, it’s opposite the ugly. It involves both the understanding and evaluation of beauty, proportions and symmetry. The assessment of facial beauty is immersed in subjectivity and therefore leans towards the world of art. Facial proportions and facial balance, however, can be measured and therefore fit somewhere between art and science. Aesthetics itself is now essentially a science in the formation, although obviously with a very strong philosophical and artistic background (Naini, et al. 2008.) According to Jang (2014) it is becoming clear that there is a science to beauty. Extensive research has shown that we have similar ideas about what constitutes a beautiful face. When British researchers asked women to rate pictures of various men, their choices were identical. When a group including English, Chinese, and Indians were asked to choose a “good looking” face from a selection of racially...

...Influences * Family- Dan’s parents seem to be harder on him than his brother Keith. They always pushed him to be better at sports especially basketball. His wife was an alcoholic and a drug addict, once tried to kill him in his car dealership by drugging him and the lighting it on fire. He has two biological sons and only cared about the younger one, most likely because he married his mother. His older brother, Keith, was more of a father to his older son, Lucas, than he was. People in Tree Hill seemed to like Keith more than Dan because Keith was friendlier to people than Dan. * Friends- Dan didn’t really have any friends because he was rude to everyone. Even his workers hated him, and his children, wife, brother, and Karen, the mother of his first born. * Environment- Tree Hill, North Carolina is a small town; everyone knows everybody and knows everyone’s business. In the show One Tree Hill, Dan becomes mayor after running against Karen in season 3 and shortly after Deb, his wife, flees Tree Hill after Lucas tells her he knows she is the one who set the fire to try to kill Dan. * Defense Mechanism * Repression- Repression is the defense mechanism that removes anxiety-arousing thoughts, feelings, and memories from ones consciousness. An example of this defense mechanism used in One Tree Hill is Dan was jealous of Keith, and in the third season there was a school lockdown, one of the students brought in a gun and held students hostage. Keith knew the student...

...the movie required for one 60 second scene. I heard in the clip that this was one of the most important scenes from this film, but still could not believe what it took put it together. The amount of people working on the shot where the camera is watching the lava flow through the mountainous landscape on the planet Mustafar was amazing. There were 47 “practical modelers” who worked on building the set for that one shot. They had to find a good material, carve it down to look the way that George Lucas envisioned it, paint it, and figure out a way to have lava flow over it to make it look perfect. They built the set on a large platform that could be tilted in order to control the speed of the lava flow, which was very smart. They also not only had to decide what to use as lava, which they used Methacil for because of its color and viscosity; but then how to make it light up to match the ominous glow that real lava has. After they had finished the shot and disassembled the set, George Lucas looked at the footage and was not happy with what he saw. He envisioned the shot going against the flow of the lava, and up the landscape of Mustafar. This in turn took even more manpower to figure out how to fix this problem. It went into the hands of a different department, who then realized that they could flip the “pan” and rewind the footage to make the shot that lasted only about five seconds. This took two departments with nearly one hundred people to make a five second clip, which is truly...

...Today’s modern accounting systems implement basic accounting needs while at the same time offering increased correctness in tracking trends, enabling partnership, and giving quick access to data. Computers run everything from home to work. Computerized solutions offer faster transaction processing and better classification of data while at the same time growing the range of input data that give a clearer and more complete picture of a company’s financial bottom line. Modern accounting systems help company management choose wisely in the use of better resources to increase profits at the same time as identifying cost saving and less spending. Accounting is the foundation of any business big or small. Yesterday many businesses did their accounting by hand. This was a long and problematic job done by those who were trained to do only accounting. Some small businesses still do it today, and this serves them fine. Larger companies have switched to computerized accounting systems today which run faster and are more accurate than manually. They both perform essentially the same thing, and are under the very same principles and concepts with the only differences being in the mechanics (Shanker, 2011). There are many factors facing manual accounting compared to computerized accounting today: speed, cost, and back up. Speed is important in accounting today due to the large companies and their investors. Using today’s computerized accounting systems, processing data, and reports...
