his two siblings, the mighty dinosaurs

offers his help and friendship. Together,
the unlikely duo embark on an epic adventure to reunite Arlo with his beloved

RealFlow is a fluid
and dynamics simulation tool for the
3D and visual effects industry, developed by Next Limit Technologies
in Madrid, Spain. This stand-alone
application can be used in conjunction with other 3D programs to simulate fluids, water surfaces, fluid-solid
interactions, rigid bodies, soft bodies and meshes. In 2008, the Next
Limit Technologies was awarded a
Technical Achievement Award by the
Academy of Motion Picture Arts and
Sciences for their development of
the RealFlow software and its contribution to the production of motion
pictures.In 2015, Next Limit Technologies announced the upcoming
release of RealFlow Core for Cinema 4D

SEMINAR ON PROFESSIONAL CINEMATOGRAPHY

Photography is the science, art and practice of creating


durable images by recording light or other electromagnetic radiation, either electronically by means
of an image sensor, or chemically by means of a
light-sensitive material such as photographic film.
Typically, a lens is used to focus the light reflected or emitted from objects into a real image on
the light-sensitive surface inside a camera during
a timed exposure. With an electronic image sensor, this produces an electrical charge at each pixel, which is electronically processed and stored in
a digital image file for subsequent display or processing. The result with photographic emulsion is
an invisible latent image, which is later chemically
developed into a visible image, either negative or
positive depending on the purpose of the photographic material and the method of processing.
