Evaluation Question 3.)
The document discusses feedback received from intended audiences on creative works. For a horror trailer, surveys found that the target audience of 15-25 year olds preferred isolated lake settings, knives as weapons, and typical teen characters. Feedback on early cuts of the trailer suggested filming more shot types and changing font colors to red for a more horror feel. Incorporating this feedback led to a more successful final trailer. Similar feedback improved a magazine cover design and film poster. The creator found this feedback invaluable for meeting industry standards.

Studio Photography, Part 1
Studio photography involves taking photographs in a controlled environment using various lighting equipment. A studio is a photographer's workspace where they create and sell photographs. Common studio equipment includes C-stands to hold lights and reflectors in place, cutters/flags to shape the light, nets/grids/snoots to focus the light, barn doors and soft boxes to modify the light, cookies/silk/reflectors to soften the light, and umbrellas to diffuse the light. The document provides descriptions of these common studio photography tools and equipment.
Media poster
Ross Barham created a practice film poster by editing a photo in Photoshop and Illustrator. In Photoshop, he darkened the background and cut out the subject. He then used Illustrator to add text for the billing block and title using custom fonts inspired by The Silence of the Lambs. Finally, he returned to Photoshop to blend the background and subject using the smudge tool before cropping and saving the final poster. The process helped Ross re-familiarize himself with the Adobe suite.
Draft 5 – ancillary photos and editing trials
This document summarizes the trials and editing process for photos for an advertising campaign. It discusses 5 trials of photos taken with different actors, costumes, props, and locations. The photos were edited in Photoshop and InDesign to refine framing, lighting, backgrounds and logo placement. The final chosen photos featured improved framing with space for logos and text on a plain brick wall background.
Analysis source code poster
The document analyzes and summarizes the key design elements of a source code movie poster. It notes that the dark background and colors create a sense of mystery, while contrasting red is used for the title to make it stand out. A pixelated effect on the main character creates the illusion of movement. The character holding a gun conveys the action and violence of the genre. The analysis concludes that these techniques intrigue audiences and effectively promote the movie.
Photoshop portrait photomontage
This document provides instructions for a Photoshop project to create a portrait photomontage combining images with poetry. The goals are to visualize poetry through images and enhance Photoshop skills. Techniques covered include using layers, layer masks, filters, and tools like the magic wand and quick selection tool. The work of artist Mee Kyung Shim is presented as inspiration, combining Korean and Western influences. A multi-step process is outlined: converting an image to black and white, creating a layer mask, selecting representative imagery for poetic elements, combining images using layers and filters, and adding text. An example finished product is shown.
Studio Lighting For Photography
This document discusses studio lighting equipment and techniques for professional photography. It begins with an introduction to the author and their research into studio lights. Then it lists topics to be covered, including the purpose of studio equipment in overcoming expense and obscurity of studio photography. It explains the use of additional lighting and diffusors to soften shadows and spread light more evenly. Finally, it contrasts flash lighting, which allows hand-holding the camera, versus continuous lighting, which provides a real-time view but is less pleasant for models. The overall goal is to clearly explain the solutions studio lights provide for professional photography.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;

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.

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money.

And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
