Lecture3 & 4 summary

I am looking forward these two weeks lecture, the different shot significance in the film will be different, the shot selected scenes played an important role in the film.
“Shot as a word” demonstrated the meaning of the different scenarios, such as the close up answers the question of ‘who’, by showing our character in detail, the mid shot answers the ‘what’ question by showing your subject performing an action.
The selection of angles to show different characters also played an important role. Moreover, inserts and cutaways providing extra information inside or outside the scene. So, select the shot for distance and insert, is an interesting and necessary process to the future study and practice.

Week 2 Lecture summary

I was interest in this week lecture which is given me some information about the history of internet and computer.

Modern computer technology is inseparable from the rapid development of human scientific and technological knowledge, .As the development of modern science going on, the naissance of computer has bound science and production ever more tightly together.

Lee de Forest invents the vacuum tube in 1906, it is contributed to the development of computer in the world, after that IBM's establishment is a landmark in the history of modern technology, Although the tube has entered the age of modern computer field, it was not until the invention of the transistor, computer find a new start. However, due to transistor computer still can not meet customer requirements, the invention of integrated circuits reduce the size of the computer, make them faster and reduce the fault. Until 1975, Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded Microsoft Corporation,Internet technology and multimedia technology have also been unprecedented application and really started to change our lives.
