Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was a beautiful summer day, so I decided to ride my bike through the woods. After about an hour of riding my bike, I saw something strange in the distance. As I got closer, I could see that it was two people standing in the middle of the path. Both of them were tall and slim, with long, flowing hair and pretty faces. They looked like they were wearing white robes, and they had a strange light around them. I stopped riding my bike and looked at them in amazement. I didn't think what I was seeing was real. Neither of these two figures was human. They were from another planet. I used my phone to take a lot of pictures. I made sure to do it quietly so as not to get their attention. I also tried not to think too much about taking pictures because I knew they might be able to read my mind. I kept my attention on the conversation and tried to look as natural as possible as I talked to them. So, I could take pictures without getting caught, and I was glad when I was done. I had taken some really great pictures, and I couldn't wait to show them to everyone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Official retrospective companion book to the Paramount film Arrival starring Amy Adams, Jereny Renner and Forest Whitaker, featuring concept art, sketches, behind-the-scenes photography and interviews with key creative and scientific team members. Since its release in 2016, Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival, based on the Hugo-nominated short story Story of Your Life by Ted Chiang, has embedded itself firmly in the minds of moviegoers around the world. The film garnered many accolades, including nine BAFTA nominations and eight Academy Award® nominations, proceeding to win an Oscar® for Best Sound Editing and a BAFTA for Best Sound. Since then, the film has generated larger conversations within the cultural landscape of academia including film, philosophy, and linguistics. In The Art and Science of Arrival, author and producer Tanya Lapointe revisits the film and its legacy with the production’s key team members. This lavish hardback volume recounts the genesis of this modern classic, from Ted Chiang’s short story The Story of Your Life to its premiere in Venice and its subsequent eight Academy Award(R) nominations. It explores the film’s concept of non-linear time, and showcases the remarkable concept art that brought the aliens, their ships and their startling logogram language to life.
Download or read book The Assessment written by Adrian Rudnyk and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1. What should we expect from an alien civilization if they were to arrive here on Earth?2. What would the relationship between humans and aliens be upon their arrival?"The Assessment" is an analysis of these two inherently philosophical questions. Unlike other ufological books, The Assessment" does not appeal to any UFO related data. Also the premise is that no matter what their psychological or cultural makeup might be, certain overarching behaviors and attitudes from a true interstellar civilization should be apparent. The Rudnyk Scale is introduced for assessing the possible nature of an alien civilization. While real life experiences with an interstellar civilization might turn out to be much more complex than we can envision, the author's hope is that "The Assessment" would, nevertheless, provide a constructive backdrop for future discussions or situations that deal with this topic.
Download or read book Art of the Cut written by Steve Hullfish and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-07-18 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second volume of the widely acclaimed Art of the Cut book published in 2017. This follow-up text expands on its predecessor with wisdom from more than 360 interviews with the world’s best editors (including nearly every Oscar winner from the last 30 years). Because editing is a highly subjective art form, and one that is critical to the success of motion picture storytelling, it requires side-by-side comparisons of the many techniques and solutions used by a wide range of editors from around the world. That is why this book compares and contrasts methodologies from a wide array of diverse voices and organizes that information so that it is easily digested and understood. There is no one way to approach editorial problems, so this book allows readers to see multiple solutions from multiple editors. The interviews contained within are carefully curated into topics that are most important to film editors and those who aspire to become film editors. The questions asked, and the organization of the book, are not merely an academic or theoretical view of the art of editing but rather the practical advice and methodologies of actual working film and TV editors, bringing benefits to both students and professional readers. The book is supplemented by a collection of downloadable online exclusive chapters, which cover additional topics ranging from Choosing the Project to VFX. In addition to the supplementary chapters, access to the full-color, full-resolution images printed in the book—and other exclusive images—is included.
Book Synopsis Childhood's End by : Arthur C. Clarke
Download or read book Childhood's End written by Arthur C. Clarke and published by RosettaBooks. This book was released on 2012-11-30 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Retro Hugo Award–nominated novel that inspired the Syfy miniseries, alien invaders bring peace to Earth—at a grave price: “A first-rate tour de force” (The New York Times). In the near future, enormous silver spaceships appear without warning over mankind’s largest cities. They belong to the Overlords, an alien race far superior to humanity in technological development. Their purpose is to dominate Earth. Their demands, however, are surprisingly benevolent: end war, poverty, and cruelty. Their presence, rather than signaling the end of humanity, ushers in a golden age . . . or so it seems. Without conflict, human culture and progress stagnate. As the years pass, it becomes clear that the Overlords have a hidden agenda for the evolution of the human race that may not be as benevolent as it seems. “Frighteningly logical, believable, and grimly prophetic . . . Clarke is a master.” —Los Angeles Times
