globalized and highly complex world. Its influence on the physical and psychological
health of the humans was studied by numerous reputable scholars from across the globe,
however this study focuses on the impact of light on the college students living in the
dormitories. The study seeks to find whether there is a correlation between light and health
of the student, his/her performance, productivity, mood and feelings. The paper uses a
relatively new housing near Arizona State University Tempe-campus as a case study as an
attempt to substantiate the problem dimensions and suggest feasible solutions.
Basing on the available literature on the topic and the case study evaluation, the
author determined the range of possible recommendations for the lighting professionals in
the industry to maximally satisfy the needs of the students and make their stay and life in
the dormitory comfortable and healthy experience. The relevant conclusions are made
basing on the obtained results.
Filmmakers seek to create story pieces that are visually beautiful and engage the full attention of their audience. They typically abide by a 3-step process moving through pre-production, production, and post-production. Within each step, there are a series of tasks that need to be accomplished in order to reach the completed film. A successful film requires careful planning and strategy in pre-production, timely and decisive execution in production, and minimal unforeseen retouching in post-production.<br/><br/>Even though filmmakers have continued to follow the same formula throughout the decades, the filmmaking process has remained largely inefficient. It is extremely common for pre-production planning to be undercut, for production filming to run far too long, and for post-production VFX and editing to send the project over budget. These instances can cause major issues as the project is being finalized. In many scenarios portions of the project need to be reshot, the box office revenue isn’t enough to make up for extensive VFX retouching, or the project may never even come to fruition. <br/><br/>The reason for this recurring theme of films being over budget and out of time is quite simply that technology has made filmmakers lazy. “Fix it in post” is a disgustingly common phrase used in the film industry. It describes the utter abuse of computer retouching in the post-production phase of filmmaking. Despite working in an industry that seeks to entertain the human eye, filmmakers have become blind to all of the small mistakes that could cost them hundreds of hours and millions of dollars in the long run.
