Abstract:

In this paper, I explore three cases from postwar Japanese media history where a single topic inspired the production of both documentary films and magic lanterns. The first example documents the creation of Maruki and Akamatsu’s famed painting Pictures of the Atomic Bomb. A documentary and two magic lantern productions explore this topic through different stylistic and aesthetic approaches. The second example is School of Echoes, a film and magic lantern about children’s education in rural Japan. The documentary film blurs distinctions between the narrative film and documentary film genres by utilizing paid actors and a prewritten script. By contrast, the original subjects of the documentary film appear as themselves in the magic lantern film. Finally, the documentary film Tsukinowa Tomb depicts an archeological excavation at the site named in the title. Unlike the monochrome documentary film, the magic lantern version was made on color film. Aesthetic and material histories of other magic lanterns include carefully hand-painted monochrome films. Monochrome documentary films in 1950s Japan tended to emphasize narrative and political ideology, while magic lantern films projected color images in the vein of realism. Through these examples of media history, we can begin to understand the entangled histories of documentary film and magic lanterns in 1950s Japan.

Abstract:

This case portrays the experimental foray of Eveready Industries Limited in a new line of business when faced with dire consequences of survival of its core battery business. The battery business was severely hit because of cheap Chinese imports and from a position of domestic market leader, Eveready saw its position untenable during 2006 to 2008. Mr. Khaitan the Vice Chairman & Managing Director of Eveready Industries Ltd. felt that the company's problems were much deeper. On top of its falling domestic demand, the company did not have the license to sell Eveready batteries in many overseas markets. Thus born out of sheer necessity of survival, Eveready Industries made its experimental foray of entering the LED lantern (lamp) business. This entry into a new business could, on one hand, create a new growth opportunity for catering to the BOP customer in an emerging country like India. On the other hand, these lamps would need batteries to operate on, which would create a further traction for his existing battery business. Further, if it could be provided cheaper than traditional kerosene lamps, it would fill a significant void in the market. This experimental foray led to unprecedented success which changed the fortunes of the company from 2009 onwards. Built on the philosophy of giving better light at a lower monthly cost than running kerosene lanterns, this experimentation was a huge success. What then were the challenges and pitfalls faced by Eveready Industries in taking an alternative growth path? What were the strategies adopted in revitalizing the Company? It is quite rare in the Indian market that a consumer product can catch such a customer fancy in such a short span of time as with the LED lamps. However challenges remain as rechargeable batteries and solar lanterns could be a potential threat to the LED lantern. This case describes the innovation in the business model and leadership issues during a crisis, which resulted in revitalization of the company.

Abstract:

Abstract Within early non-fiction film, the Italian travel or scenic films of the 1910s may be considered the most picturesque. They are remarkable for their presentation of landscapes and cityscapes, their co-existence of modernity and nostalgia, their accent on beauty – at times at the expense of geographic veracity and indexicality – and their focus on the transformed gaze through the use of special masks, split-screens, and other devices. The transmedial roots for this aestheticization can be found both in art (painting) and popular culture (postcards, magic lanterns, etc.). While the author was one of the firsts to write on this subject decades ago, today there is a need for radical revision and a deeper approach. This is due to the influx of recent literature first by Jennifer Peterson’s book Education in the School of Dreams (2013) and her scholarly articles. Secondly, Blom’s co-presentation on Italian early nonfiction at the 2018 workshop A Dive into the Collections of the Eye Filmmuseum: Italian Silent Cinema at the Intersection of the Arts led to the recognition that revision was needed. Finally, the films themselves call for new approaches while they are being preserved and disseminated by, foremost, the film archives of Bologna, Amsterdam, and Turin.

Abstract:

Tato práce představuje návrh na vytvoření dekodéru pro video zaznamenané pomocí softwaru Magic Lantern, který může být nainstalován na Canon 5D. Toto video je význačné pro svoji velikost 14-bitů v raw formátu a proto může produkovat velmi kvalitní výstup. Práce má za cíl rozdělit video do jednotlivých snímků, ve vhodném formátu, který umí pracovat také s formáty obrazů s vysokým dynamickým rozsahem.

Abstract:

The U.S. Navy currently has no means to conduct sea mine reconnaissance with assets that are organic to Aircraft Carrier Battle Groups or Amphibious Ready Groups. Magic Lanten is an Airborne Laser Mine Detection System (ALMDS) under development, that is designed to search for floating and shallow moored mines using a helicopter- mounted laser-optic sensor. It is the only ALMDS operationally tested by the Navy to date. This thesis develops a Monte Carlo simulation model called ML-Recon, which is intended for use as a tool to plan mine reconnaissance searches using the Magic Lantern system. By entering fundamental initial planning information, the user can determine the number of uniformly-spaced tracks to fly with a Magic Lantern-equipped helicopter to achieve a certain level of assurance that the area contains no floating or shallow moored mines. By employing Monte Carlo methods, ML-Recon models the three primary stochastic processes that take place during a typical search: the location of the mines, the cross-track error of the helicopter, and the detection/non-detection process of the sensor. By running ML-Recon, the user is given performance statistics for many replications of the search plan that he chooses. This approach is unique in that it provides the user with information indicating how much worse than the mean performance his plan may perform. ML- Recon also gives the user an Opportunity to view an animation of his lan, which he can use to look for tendencies in the lan to contain holes, or holidays. (AN)

Abstract:

In the early years of the twentieth century, the unique new medium of motion pictures was the focus of significant theorization and experimentation at the fringes of the American advertising industry. Alongside the growth of the nickelodeon, and the multiple shifts in the American cinema's business model in the 'transitional era,' various individuals at the margins of the advertising industry attempted, and most often failed, to integrate direct consumer-goods advertising regularly into motion picture theaters. Via techniques as diverse as the glass slide, the commercial trailer, and the advertising wall-clock, cinema patrons of the 1910s witnessed various attempts by merchants and manufacturers to intrude upon their attention in the cinema space. Through research in the trade presses of the cinema, advertising, and various consumer-goods industries, along with archival ephemera from the advertising companies themselves, this dissertation explores these various on and off-screen tactics for direct advertising attempted in silent cinemas, and their eventual minimization in the American cinema experience. Despite the appeal of the new, popular visual medium of cinema to advertisers, concerns over ticket prices, advertising circulation, audience irritation, and the potential for theatrical 'suicide-by-advertising,' resulted, over a mere fifteen years, in the near abandonment of the cinema as an advertising medium. As a transitional medium between the 19th century forms of print and billboarding, and 20th century broadcasting, the silent cinema was an important element in the development of modern advertising theories.
