A relative newcomer in outdoor signs is Mylar polyester film, now used as a printed overlay for trans-illuminated signs ( see below ).

The copy itself, including any text or illustrations, is reproduced in full color directly on a thin Mylar polyester film by a photo screen process.

For example, when the film is only four minutes old, Neitzbohr refers to a small, Victorian piano stool as `` Wilhelmina '', and we are thereupon subjected to a flashback that informs us that this very piano stool was once used by an epileptic governess whose name, of course, was Doris ( the English equivalent, when passed through middle-Gaelic derivations, of Wilhelmina ).

The effect, needless to say, is almost terrifying, and though at times a bit obscure, the film is certainly a much-needed catharsis for the `` repressed '' movie-goer.

Since the removal force is a function of coating thickness, a differential transformer pickup has been incorporated into the instrument to accurately measure film thickness.

If the force required to remove the coatings is plotted against film thickness, a graph as illustrated schematically in Fig. 5 may characteristically result.

Here, H is the coatings removal force measured parallel to the surface of the substrate and T is the film thickness.

If the cutting force, Af, is plotted against film thickness, a straight line should result passing through the origin and having slope Af.

This signifies that **yc, the rake angle, is no longer a constant to zero film thickness.

The resultant friction force, Af is thus directly proportional to Af and consequently also to film thickness.

The first two forces are directly interrelated and depend upon film thickness, whereas Af is independent of these two and is a constant for a given knife/coating combination.

Of the two, Porter is justly the better known, for he went far beyond the vital finding of fiction for films to take the first step toward fashioning a language of film, toward making the motion picture the intricate, efficient time machine that it has remained since, even in the most inept hands.

In a series of fairy tales and fantasies, Melies demonstrated that the film is superbly equipped to tell a straightforward story, with beginning, middle and end, complications, resolutions, climaxes, and conclusions.

In narrative, time is essential, as it is in film.

Almost everything about the movies that is peculiarly of the movies derives from a tension created and maintained between narrative time and film time.

The Great Train Robbery is a one-reel film.

The material of the Porter film is simplicity itself ; ;

The plane of the action in the scene is not parallel with the plane of the film in the camera or on the screen.

The physical film is cut with a knife at the end of one complete sequence, and the cut edge is joined physically, by cement, to the cut edge of the beginning of the next sequence.

The `` chase '' as a standard film device probably dates from The Great Train Robbery, and there is a reason for the continued popularity of the device.

Never a `` quick study '', he now made no attempt to learn his `` lines '' and many a mile of film was wasted, many a scene -- sometimes involving as many as a thousand fellow thespians -- was taken thirty, forty, fifty times because Miss Poitrine's co-star and `` helpmate '' had never learned his part.

This discovery of Melies was vastly more important than his sometimes dazzling, magician's tricks produced on film.

* Azhagiya Tamil Magan, a 2007 Tamil film sometimes shortened to ATM

In creative / design companies ( such as film studios, a comics company or a web design company ), there is sometimes a Chief Creative Officer ( CCO ), responsible for keeping the overall look and feel of different products, otherwise headed by different teams, constant throughout a brand.

Actors sometimes alternate between theater, television and film or even branch into other occupations within the entertainment industry such as becoming a singer, comedian, producer, or a television host in order to be monetarily diversified, as doing one gig pays comparatively very little.

Sometimes the target of the animation is the computer itself, but sometimes the target is another medium, such as film.

The newsreel tradition is important in documentary film ; newsreels were also sometimes staged but were usually re-enactments of events that had already happened, not attempts to steer events as they were in the process of happening.

This sometimes means a happier ending or less ambiguity, or excluding scenes that would give a higher age limit, but more often means that the film is simply shortened to provide more screenings per day.

These were usually assembled with the addition of deleted scenes, sometimes adding as much as a half-hour to the length of the film without regard to pacing and storytelling.

The Evil Dead ( sometimes shortened to just Evil Dead, and originally titled Book of the Dead ) is a 1981 American horror film written and directed by Sam Raimi, starring Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss, and Betsy Baker.

An editor's cut ( sometimes referred to as the " Assembly edit " or " Rough cut ") is normally the first pass of what the final film will be when it reaches picture lock.

The editor continues to refine the cut while shooting continues, and often the entire editing process goes on for many months and sometimes more than a year, depending on the film.

The three most prestigious film festivals are commonly regarded to be that of Cannes, Berlin and Venice ; these festivals are sometimes called the " Big Three.

The cinema of the Soviet Union, not to be confused with " Cinema of Russia " despite Russian language films being predominant in both genres, includes several film contributions of the constituent republics of the Soviet Union reflecting elements of their pre-Soviet culture, language and history, although sometimes censored by the Central Government.

Each of these art forms, and the criticism thereof, is primarily concerned with a sole creative force: the author of a novel ( not, for example, his editor or type-setter ), the composer of a piece of music ( though sometimes the performers are given credence, akin to actors in film today ), or the painter of a fresco ( not his assistants who mix the colours or often do some of the painting themselves ).

A piece of film consists of a light-sensitive emulsion applied to a tough, transparent base, sometimes attached to anti-halation backing or " rem-jet " layer ( now only on camera films ).

Testament is sometimes deemed an anti-Nazi film as Lang had put phrases used by the Nazis into the mouth of the title character.

* Film grain, the gritty texture sometimes apparent on images produced using photographic film or paper ( grainy )

The first depictions of supernatural events appear in several of the silent shorts created by the film pioneer Georges Méliès in the late 1890s, the best known being Le Manoir du diable ( aka, The Haunted Castle, 1896 ) which is sometimes credited as being the first horror film.

Academy ratio ( 1. 37: 1 ) film or video is sometimes stretched to fill a widescreen ( 16: 9 ) television display,

While all three films are sometimes associated with the Dogme 95 movement, only The Idiots is a certified Dogme 95 film.

Marxist film theory has developed from these precise and historical beginnings and is now sometimes viewed in a wider way to refer to any power relationships or structures within a moving image text.

These techniques are sometimes used by real martial artists as well, depending on the style of action in the film.

The musical film is a film genre in which songs sung by the characters are interwoven into the narrative, sometimes accompanied by dancing.
