An Introduction to Online Video Production and Distribution - Part Two

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

After the video production is concluded the editing segment kicks-off. More often than not editing control units remain put largely with the editing corporations and the technically certified specialised professionals provide high levels of ingenuity at some point during the editing job. By and large through the editing procedure the worthwhile sections of the video recordings are set aside and unwanted parts are abolished. There is numerous sophisticated software products that are in high use for this task. The purpose of the video is analyzed and subtle amendments are finished as well. Audio clips & background music are also utilised at some point during the editing. There remains Special Effect Generators (SPG) which makes the selected footage more professional. As a rule many of the corporate agencies provide the footages and the editing services.

These days many video production and publishing agencies exist to satisfy goals of different firms. In addition to organisations presentations, videography is also utilised to preserve very important instances of life for example weddings, birthdays, special festivities; travel and so on. Small video camcorders with digital chips are nowadays extensively accessible on the market. Short films have turned out to be quite fashionable in addition to being quite informative and amusing. Actually videos allow individuals to relate better to the subject matter than any other nature of media communications.

Today, numerous people are setting up video production businesses as demand of these kinds of companies are rising. It is also likely to get hold of plenty of info from the Web concerning video production just with a few mouse clicks. The expansion of audio-visual market has assisted the rise of video commercials & to develop beautiful commercials, a professional video production and publishing business is very important. Internet videos play a significant part in execution of business plans & at this moment online video production and marketing is a popular concept among the internet users. So, across the globe video production plays an important role.

Locust Plagues Are Coming; Can We Stop Them?

Friday, December 26th, 2008

The size of a locust plague is often over five miles wide and five miles or more long. And it continues up to 200 feet above the ground. The Locust Plagues in Africa are by far the largest and most devastating and in a nation where humans are already under a crunch to feed everyone and starvation is common place. A locust plague and massive swarm can take out a years crops in seconds and it is all over.

One think tank online got into a serious discussion on how to kill locust swarms and one member Warren states; “I submit if you find their weakness and exploit it, there will be no need for flamethrowers or insecticide. OF COURSE the chemical corporations do not want a mechanical or sound energy solution, it is not in their $ interest.”

Indeed I see the World Bank is offering funds for research in big amounts of money for someone who can solve this problem, as it impedes their work tremendously as we head into a world water crisis and that also would mean a time of more locust plagues and that means Billions of humans will die. So, I agree. Indeed our Chemical Companies will still be needed, because sound alone, which we can use to control or steer them will not kill them or completely stop them. Other than an ELF Detonation Pulse ’snapping’ charge, it will be nearly impossible to put out enough sound to over power the thunderous train locomotive sound they already make and thus will not kill the locusts completely.

Perhaps we can send our 747 fire bomber in with BBQ sauce and chemicals to chemically burn the Locusts and make them tasty at that same time. Basically pre-cook them so they don’t rot when they hit the ground and thus provide protein and storable food for months. And sure you could say that is a way out idea, but it isn’t really. And remember chemicals are plentiful in Africa, left over from refining and industry there too. Still no concrete answers, but you can bet many people are working on this and wish to find a way to stop them. Consider all this in 2006.

A Look at Video Production and Distribution - Article One

Friday, November 21st, 2008

The sensible old Chinese slogan has an enormous meaning; the sentiment described the fact that each & every person believes an event extensively more when it is observed. Through video production or videography it is possible to film a succession of occasions.

At the moment in a lot of different business presentations, video footage is commonly adopted. By employing video production services it is possible to deliver the necessary info to a number of clients to help attract them. Online Video production at present is used for various tasks; however, quite a few online promotional videos and brand associated presentations are usually created in order to attain desired business objectives.

Audio video productions are very much in fashion & as a result are used in nearly any variety of corporate activity. Digital media companies typically work with a certain style of client or a business that are seeking to develop a short format video, a presentation or an assortment of video clips. The total job of video production is often carried out by a number of freelancers; although there are one or two online specialist video production companies around at the moment.

The input of music composers, cameraman & script writers can also be typical when creating internet video presentations. Furthermore, advertising firms and public relations agencies have only recently become involved with many aspects of video production.

Get Ready To Witness Your Dreams On the Computer!

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Imagine a computer on which you can see your dreams, analyze every thought process that goes on inside your brain and every sense you feel. Imagine that your memory is on the computer’s hard disk. If your entire brain can be mapped onto the computer, your thoughts can become immortal. Seems like a fantasy, doesn’t it? May be not anymore. The brain remains the most complex and mysterious part of the human anatomy.

To help solve this mystery, on sixth of June 2005, IBM in collaboration with EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne), announced the most ambitious project to date for brain research and rightly called it the Blue Brain Project. The project aims to create a detailed model of the circuitry in the neocortex - the largest and the most complex part of the human brain. By expanding the project to model other areas of the brain, scientists hope to eventually build an accurate computer based model of the entire brain. The first phase of the Blue Brain Project which involves making a software replica of the neocortex ( almost 85% of the brain’s total mass) is expected to take two to three years. The next phase of the project which includes simulating the entire brain will take at least a decade.

The Blue Brain Project will make use of IBM’s eServer Blue Gene supercomputer. Blue Gene was recently rated as the fastest supercomputer in the world. It has a peak speed of about 22.8 teraflops which means it can theoretically spit out 22.8 trillion floating point operations every second. Certain computer simulations that require a full day of research and calculations can be done in a matter of seconds on Blue Gene. In a real brain, a neocortical column is a cylindrical element about a third of a millimetre in diameter and three millimetres long, containing some 10,000 nerve cells. It is these columns which make up the famous “grey matter”. The EPFL’s contribution to the Blue Brain Project will be to create a digital description of how the columns behave. The Blue Gene supercomputer consists of enough independent processors for each to be programmed to emulate an individual nerve cell in a column. Blue Gene architecture has 8000 Processors and by mapping one or two simulated brain neurons to each processor, the computer will become a silicon replica of 10,000 neurons. Then scientists will interconnect them with the rules that they have worked out about how the brain functions. The result will be a full-fledged model of 10,000 neurons jabbering back and forth, a simulation 1,000 times larger than any similar model to date. Biologists and computer scientists will collaborate to connect the artificial nerve cells up in a way that mimics nature. They will do so by assigning electrical properties to them, and telling them how to communicate with each other and how they should modify their connections with one another depending on their activity.

After the first phase of Blue Brain Project is completed, scientists will be able to study the functions of neocortex in language, learning and complex thought. When the second phase is completed and the entire brain has been modelled, it will also shed light on other internal processes such as perception, memory and senses. Moreover, by running accurate simulations of brain processes, scientists will be able to investigate questions about psychiatric disorders and how they arise, Scientists believe that autism, schizophrenia, depression, and other psychological problems are caused by defective or malfunctioning circuitry in the brain.

Scientists around the globe have conflicting opinions on what the researchers hope to achieve with this project. Some just don’t realise the gravity of the proejct and feel mapping a brain onto a computer is meaningless. Some academics, such as Roger Penrose of Oxford University, argue that brains do not work in a way comparable with a computer, so any kind of simulation that is built on digital architecture and uses traditional programming techniques is bound to failure. Henry Markram, the head of the Brain Mind Institute, and the leader of the EPFL’s side of the project, stresses that Blue Brain’s formal goal is not to build an artificial intelligence system, such as a neural network but to make a computer simulated model of the human brain.

Well, if the Blue Brain Project turns out to be successful, we could soon be gearing towards a real ‘Matrix.’ The bigger question that we need to ask is: What if something goes drastically wrong and the machines take over the human brain, wouldn’t this bring us one step closer to annihilation?
