What's the Difference Between a Million and BillionBakari Chavanu
A million seconds is equivalent to about 12 days, while a billion seconds amounts to over 32 years. The document compares the length of a million seconds to days and a billion seconds to years to illustrate just how much larger a billion is than a million.
The document provides an evaluation of the student's thriller title sequence project for the CAPTIVE film. Some key points:
- The student chose the thriller genre which proved challenging to develop without falling into horror. Research on thriller conventions informed their sequence.
- Their sequence showed the doctor and main character Maria independently preparing then the doctor following Maria. It was edited in black and white to create more mystery and tension.
- Feedback suggested they should have drawn more from thriller films like Sin City that are entirely black and white.
- They represented the working class characters appropriately without stereotypes but could have shown the doctor in a less casual outfit.
- An early target for their production was Film4 but

High Performance Data Bus Encoding Technique in DSM TechnologyIDES Editor
To increase the performance and reliability of
highly integrated circuits like DSP processors,
Microprocessors and SoCs, transistors sizes are continues to
scale towards Deep Submicron and Very Deep Submicron
dimensions . As more and more transistors are packed on the
chip to increase the functionality more metal layers are being
added to the integrated chips. Hence the performance of the
chips depends more on the performance of global interconnect
and on-chip busses than gate performance. The performance
of the global interconnects and on-chip data busses is limited
by switching activity, energy dissipation and noise such as
crosstalk, leakage, supply noise and process variations etc.
which are the side effects of the technology scaling. To increase
the performance of overall system it is necessary to control
and reduce these technology scaling effects on on-chip data
buses. One of the favorable techniques to increase the
efficiency of the data buses is to encode the data on the onchip
bus. Data encoding technique is the promising method to
increase the performance of the data bus and hence overall
system performance. Hence high performance data bus
encoding technique is propose which reduces switching
activity, transition energy dissipation, crosstalk and crosstalk
delay. The proposed method reduces the switching activity by
around 23%, energy dissipation by 46%, 6C, 5C and 4C type
crosstalk by around 89%, 73% and 31% respectively and
crosstalk delay by around 44% to 50% compare to unencoded
data.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
The student created a magazine cover in Adobe InDesign and evaluated their work. They found InDesign difficult to use at first but learned several new tools, including the gradient feather tool, eyedropper tool, and rectangle frame tool. While aspects matched the original cover, weaknesses included the background color not matching as well as the featured photo and some text angles not aligning identically. Going forward, the student would make the photo larger and add more depth to the background color.

- The document discusses a student's final major project evaluating their time management and problem solving skills.
- The project involved going through pre-production, production, and post-production stages to create a media product.
- The student had some challenges staying on schedule but was able to adapt their schedule and find solutions to issues that came up, such as actors canceling or needing to reshoot footage. They completed the project meeting the deadline.
The document provides a detailed reflection on managing a major project from pre-production through post-production. Some key points:
1) Time management was a challenge, with tasks slipping behind schedule due to underestimating workloads and actor cancellations. Contingency plans helped get back on track.
2) Technical quality of the final product was mixed, with some shots appearing pixelated or with inconsistent lighting due to equipment limitations and shooting conditions.
3) Editing went smoothly using Adobe software, though rendering issues arose. Reshoots were needed when stabilizing footage failed.
4) Overall, a valuable learning experience in project management, but time management skills need further improvement.
The survey results provide both positive and mixed feedback on the audience test of a movie title sequence:
- The gender and age demographics reached were fairly balanced, though younger families were underrepresented. Over 50% of respondents were aged 16-18 or 35+, fitting the intended family audience.
- 91% of respondents fit the target social classification of C1-E grades, showing the right social demographic was reached, even if they may not have families.
- 92% correctly identified the genre from visual and audio elements, but some optional answers like "teens" were selected too, showing not all ages may have been appealed to.
- Respondents largely found the 120 second length and genre-fitting audio
1) Over several months, the student worked through their pre-production, production, and early post-production tasks for their major final project of creating a movie title sequence.
2) They provided detailed weekly summaries of the progress made and plans for the following week, noting any delays or changes to their production schedule.
3) By the end, filming was complete, footage was being edited together into a rough cut, and the student planned to finish the final product by mid-May in order to allow time for revisions and completing evaluations.

This document outlines the tasks and assessment criteria for a student's final major project. The project requires the student to:
1) Independently devise and manage a creative media production from pre-production to post-production. The project must relate to at least one discipline such as video, audio, motion graphics, photography or graphic design.
2) Develop initial ideas using techniques like mind maps and pitch a proposal for their chosen project.
3) Conduct research and create pre-production documents including a risk assessment, storyboards, scripts and schedules to plan their production.
4) Produce the final media product according to their proposal and brief.
5) Gather audience feedback and evaluate their
This document summarizes the results of a survey about title sequences for movies. The survey received responses mostly from 16-18 year olds, limiting the age range of feedback. Most respondents watched movies and understood the purpose of title sequences. Responses were mixed on whether people enjoyed watching title sequences, but over half said they did. Respondents indicated title sequences should be between 30 seconds to 2 minutes long. The most popular aspect of title sequences was that they provide hints about the movie.
The document summarizes edits made to two images for a magazine spread. For the first image, the author flipped it, decreased its opacity to make the text more visible, and used the burn tool to increase exposure on the model's facial features and clothing. For the second image found online, the author resized it using the crop tool, decreased skin exposure and increased exposure on lips and eyes using the burn tool to make it their own style for the magazine.
The magazine Kerrang targets 13-24 year olds interested in heavy metal and indie rock music. This is evident from the dark coloring and comic book style of the cover that appeals stereotypically to males in this age group. The low price of £1.89 also indicates the target market cannot afford much, placing them in social groups C1-E. The magazine layout follows the Guttenberg design theory with important elements like the masthead and band photos placed in the primary optical area to attract readers' eyes. Kerrang's masthead uses an onomatopoeic name and cracked font to represent the loud, grungy rock music genre.
The document discusses the production process for a magazine article and design. It describes using Microsoft Word for the initial draft and editing, then Photoshop for the final layout and design of the front cover and double page spread. Key aspects of design discussed include font size, image placement, masthead prominence, lead article formatting, and ensuring elements follow conventions to attract readers. The target audience is identified as 15-24 year olds, likely from lower-middle class backgrounds, interested in indie/folk music. Females are the primary audience but males may also be attracted by prominent female artists featured.

The document provides a location risk assessment for shooting a film in a house in Salford, Lancashire. It details that the living room will be used for shots 1, 6, 8, 9, 11, and 12 due to its spacious size, setup, and lighting availability. The kitchen will be used for shots 5, 7, 10, 16, and 18 because of the available props and enough room for equipment and movement. Additionally, another room will be used for shots 3, 4, 13, and 15, though it is smaller, the patio windows provide the perfect natural light needed.
This document contains a survey with multiple choice and short answer questions about respondents' viewing habits and preferences regarding movie title sequences. It asks about the respondent's gender, age, whether they enjoy watching movies and title sequences. It also asks about the perceived purpose of a title sequence, the perfect length, enjoyable aspects, and any proposed changes to title sequences.
This survey asks respondents questions about a movie title sequence, including their age, gender, and social classification. It then asks multiple choice questions about the genre represented by the title sequence and who it seems to be aimed at. Respondents are also asked if the music and length of the sequence are suitable and if the visual aspects are aesthetically pleasing. The final question asks if the sequence makes the respondent want to watch the movie.
