A way to light a background is lighting for exposure. Lighting for exposure is when the background is too dark, and the image loses apparent depth, so you may want to wash some light on it to make it more visible.

14-8

Light contrast is the difference in brightness between the lightest and darkest areas in the image.An example of light contrast is shadows with details visible in them.

14-7

Light Quanity is when the camera's imaging a chip(or chips) must recieve exactly the right quanity of light in order to form a high-quality image. An example of light quanity is to decrease or increase the quanity of light to suit the needs of the camera.

Background sound is when individuals sounds are heard against a background of more-or-less continuous noise.

Two ways to minimize background noise is to turn off controllable sounds like heating ducts or background conversations during takes. Another way to minimize uncontrollable noises like traffic or wind as much as possible during dialogue or effects recording.

14-3

Production sound is the sound that is recorded with the video. You could have difficulties while recording because production sounds generally use separate mikes.

12-12

An exaple of a shutter program is by forcing to open the aperture.

Perspective is the illusion of depth in the picture, the apparent distance from the camcorder to the farthest part of the scene.

12-3

Depth of field is the distance, in front of and behind the plane on which the lens is focused, in which objects in the image sharp. A scene that looks perfectly sharp in wide angle may turn soft when you zoom to telephoto.

3)Stabilizers

1) The electrically encoded information about each video field is sent to a record head spinning on a drum in the recorder.

2) The record head preserves the signal by selectively magnetizing metallic particles on the videotape that moves across its path.

11-2

1)Light passes through the camcorder lens, which organizes it into a coherent image and projects it onto the surface of the chip.

2) This process repeats 25 or 30 times each second, to create a video track coded in electronic form.
