Planning Table Of Content Image
The document provides details for a planned photo shoot including the agency name, model, camera setup, location, lighting, props, costume, intended connotations, planned denotations, contingencies, and alternative angles. Specifically, it notes that the shoot will take place at Edgware Road studios using soft lighting and feature the model leaning on a pillar in dark clothing against a plain background to stand out.
hfTest shots
The document discusses test camera shots taken with a Nikon camera to practice different camera techniques like zooming, focusing, and various camera angles. A high angle pan of a library was used to test panning while keeping the camera in focus. A medium shot of animals struggled to focus between the nearby fence and animals. An artificial zoom on the animal shot was difficult to keep steady while zooming.
Assignment 5 planning for preliminary
1) The document provides information on techniques for filming conversations, including the 180 degree rule, match on action, and different camera shots.
2) The 180 degree rule states that two characters in a scene should maintain the same left/right relationship to avoid confusing the audience. Match on action matches the speed of an action like catching a ball across two shots to make the movement seem continuous.
3) Different camera shots are defined, including establishing shots, close-ups, extreme close-ups, two shots, and over the shoulder shots. The uses and purposes of each shot type are explained.
photography
The document discusses pictures the author has taken for a landscape photography project, which they then edited in Photoshop. It also mentions additional pictures taken with a macro setting that use a technique called depth of field, where the subject is in focus but the background is blurred.
Production log session 10
The document provides screenshots and details of shots taken for the exposition and classroom scenes of a film. For the exposition scene, shots show the protagonist crossing the road, interacting with a homeless person, and boarding a bus for college. Examples of these shots are selected for closer examination. The classroom scene features different camera angles such as medium close-ups and predominantly wide shots to establish the setting and capture multiple classroom actions at once from a large scale perspective.
Activity
The photography studio is suitable for the main photo shoot. Permission was obtained from the photography teacher to use the studio. Equipment needed, including studio lights, a DSLR camera, and tripod, will be brought. Safety issues like tidy wiring will be checked. A variety of shots will be experimented with to choose the best for the magazine. Models were contacted via Facebook and text about their roles to make efficient use of limited studio time.
Question 7
The document discusses the filmmaker's experience directing and editing a new film project after an initial preliminary exercise. They felt their skills had improved and they were able to explore different shot types like low angle close-ups, handheld movements, and tracking shots. The editing process for the new project was more extensive, involving selecting shots and carefully deciding the order to create an unconventional thriller. Mistakes were made but could be corrected more efficiently since the process was now more familiar.
Rough cut evaluation
The rough cut evaluation summarizes the quality of various elements in a title sequence video project. The order and placement of shots made sense overall, though a few shots were moved. Some shots need to be refilmed due to unsteady cameras. A variety of shot types were used but some pan shots were unsteady. Natural lighting was used initially but additional lighting was needed and didn't provide much improvement. The characters' performances were good with little need for reshoots. Mise-en-scene was generally well done though lighting was an issue in one location.

Public speaking
There are four main methods of speech delivery:
1. Impromptu speeches which rely on short preparation and focus on delivering one main point clearly.
2. Manuscript speeches which involve reading from a prepared text but make it difficult to connect with the audience or adapt the speech.
3. Memorized speeches which allow for a natural delivery but require skill to present memorized material without notes.
4. Extemporaneous speeches which utilize note cards for an informal yet prepared style of public speaking.
Agency Name
The document outlines a plan for taking photos for the front cover of a magazine. It details that the model will be Maria and photos will be taken at Edgware Road studios. One photo will feature low lighting and the model leaning on a wall, while another will have bright lighting and the model standing. No props will be used except the wall. The photos aim to depict the model relaxing rather than actively singing or playing music. Alternative shooting angles and a contingency plan are also mentioned.
Setting
The document discusses what the author learned from their preliminary task to their final product. For their preliminary task, the author used a classroom setting without considering other options, casual costumes without focusing on genre, and inexperienced actors which affected quality. They also relied on natural lighting and used simple shot types. For their final product, an adventure film, the author chose settings, costumes, experienced actors, lighting, and varied shot types that suited the genre conventions. The author also improved their script layout and storyboard clarity based on research.

2) For the final product, the author learned the importance of setting and how it can establish the scene and conform to genre conventions. They also chose costumes that fit the teen adventure genre better. Actors in the final product had some acting experience for a more professional feel.
3) Overall, the author gained knowledge in areas like lighting, shot types, script layout and storyboarding to improve their final product over the preliminary task. They applied genre-appropriate settings, costumes
Task 2 b evaluation
The author chose image number 8 because it clearly captured their emotion at the right angle with their eyes fully white and no visible pupils. The lighting was well exposed to see their face clearly without needing edits. They rejected other images because their pupils were visible when trying to roll their eyes back or the angle did not convey the intended power. Exterior images were also rejected due to uncontrolled sunlight causing too much or not enough lighting.
Preliminary Task Evaluation Report
The document provides feedback on the quality of various aspects of a student film project. It evaluates the quality of shot framing and steadiness, appropriate use of setting, editing, sound, and actor positioning and movement. Suggestions are made such as using a tripod, pre-visualizing shots, matching editing pace to genre, and having actors move with more purpose. Overall, group planning, organization, and dynamics were seen as good, though the location selection could have been better planned initially.
Planning advert photo-shoot
The document outlines the planning for a photo shoot to create advertisements, including choosing a model, deciding on camera angles and lighting, having the model wear different outfits and poses, and contingencies if the planned shoot cannot be done as intended. Test images will be edited in Photoshop and focus groups will help decide which images best convey the desired message and sell products to the target audience of teenage girls.
Planning front cover photoshoot
The document outlines the planning and process for a photo shoot to capture images for the front cover of a magazine, including selecting models, lighting, background, and editing plans to portray themes of fun, youth and friendship through the costumes, poses and final selected image. Test images were taken with natural light and different backgrounds, and the selected front cover image was chosen through feedback from the target audience as best representing the desired themes.
Own images
The document provides a deconstruction of images taken for a film project. It summarizes the photographer's process of experimenting with different camera settings, lighting, character positioning, and focus to capture shots that convey a mysterious and eerie atmosphere. Several shots are highlighted as favorites for a potential poster or magazine due to how the dark backgrounds, barely visible characters, and unsettling tree compositions help attract audience interest in unraveling the mystery.
Evaluation x.1
The document summarizes a photography shoot where the photographer experimented with different techniques, including multiple exposures and out of focus shots. Weather conditions made the shoot difficult and the photographer had to make adjustments on the fly. Edited photos applying different effects in Photoshop are included, such as overlaying shots and changing layers to black and white. The photographer aims to convey emotions like loneliness and discovery through surreal, overlapping images.
Planning advert photo-shoot
The document outlines the planning for a photo shoot to advertise a product, including choosing Rosie Akroyd as the model, taking pictures with natural lighting at different angles and locations, having the model wear elegant clothing and hold props, and contingencies if the model is absent or weather is poor. Test pictures will be evaluated and basic Photoshop editing like lightening and cropping will be applied to the chosen shots.
Photoshoot
I took a variety of photography pictures to use as options for my magazine. Taking the pictures made me consider the quality needed for professional magazines. Some problems arose during my first photo shoot - there was a glare that made the pictures blurry due to the camera setting, and it was difficult to edit without a backdrop. For my second shoot, I used a backdrop and corrected the lighting, having the model hold a prop. For my final shoot, I followed the black and white color scheme for the backdrop to reduce editing needs.
Planning front cover photoshoot
The document outlines the planning and process for a photo shoot to capture images for the front cover of a magazine, including choosing a studio location, lighting setup, selecting props and costumes to convey themes of youth and music, contingencies if models are absent, and basic post-shoot editing in Photoshop like adjusting brightness and contrast and changing the background. Test images were evaluated and one was selected by a target audience for best capturing fun, girly, and star quality themes for the front cover.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Recently uploaded (20)

Planning Double Page Spread
- 1. Planning Double Page Spread Agency Name Essential Model Maria Camera height/angle/distance Medium-long shot of the model laying on the floor Location Edgware Road studios Lighting Soft lighting to blend in with the plain background Mise-en-scene (incl props, costume) On some of the shot I had her sitting on a window sit and others she was laying on the floor. I changed her clothing to see how it would photograph and how it would fit into the theme of my magazine. Attempted Connotation I didn’t attempt to show any connotation in the photo because I thought it wouldn’t fit into the theme of the magazine. Planned denotation Again the model is relaxed and the pictures are not conventional. Contingency ( in case model absence/weather) The pictures were taken inside a studio so the weather wasn’t a problem. However if the model had not shown up I would have had to reschedule because I don’t have a back up model. Alternative angle I used a range of medium to close up shots so I could have a variety to choose from. also long shot distances.
