Answer:
Photocopying seems like an extremely simple task when you think about what you are
doing; taking one thing and make one or more copies of it. It can, in fact, be difficult to
know how to operate one properly, choosing the right paper and preparing the machine
to the right settings. Providing you know what the right buttons are to use, the process
can be made much simpler!
So, how do you make great photocopies?
1. Prepare the Originals
Once you have made the decision to copy something, you should do everything in your
power to make sure the original copy is in good condition. Originals that are well looked
after always make the best copies, so it’s a good idea to keep your original in tip top
shape.
Where possible, you should try and print the originals on heavyweight paper from an
inkjet or laser printer, to help maintain a fresh, high quality appearance.
If the original is folded or creased, try and remove these straight away. The copies won’t
be as clear if you try and copy a folded or creased original. Any stapes or tape should
also be removed as smooth paper feeds through the copy machine much better.
The following principles are considered to be the basic ones for programmed
learning:
1. Objective specification:
Which means identifying the terminal behaviours that the learner will be able to perform
when he has completed the programme.
3. Overt Responding:
It means that pupils must act on each unit of information by means of exercises
provided to assimilate it.
4. Success or Minimal Error:
This means that error and failure must be avoided at all costs because they are
construed as obstacles to learning.
5. Immediate feedback:
In order to ensure success and satisfaction, the pupil must know that his action is
correct.
7. Self Pacing:
It is used for programme development and validation.
Linear programme is one in which every learner follows the identical sequence, that is,
the frames or didules are encountered in a single, pre-arranged order. The proponent of
this type of programme style is B.E Skinner (1958).
Steps in Programming:
1. Topic Selection:
The programmes should select the most familiar topic; otherwise he has to take the help
of a subject expert.
2. Content Outline:
After topic selection, its outline may be prepared which cover all the materials, one
plans, to teach. For this programme one has to refer to examine relevant books and
materials.
3. Instructional Objectives:
Instructional Objectives must be formulated which involve both task description and task
analysis. The former is the description of terminal behaviours which the learner is
expected to achieve and the latter is the series of component behaviours that he is
required to acquire in the process of achieving terminal behaviour.
4. Entry Skill:
The learner should have some pre-reqisite ability and skill to understand properly the
new programme. This background experience is called the entry skill and a suitable
programme cannot ne prepared without proper assessment of the entry skill.
8. Revision:
Lastly the programme may be revised on the basis of feedback. The instructional
materials may be edited and modified according to the needs and requirements of the
target audience.
Answer:
The film production process can be divided into countless steps to take a film from
concept to a finished piece. However, there are three key stages that take place in the
production of any film: pre-production (planning), production (filming), and post-
production (editing, color-grading, and visual effects).
A film is a living, breathing thing, and like all living things, from plants to humans, they
start from something small before growing into its final form. If you’re struggling to figure
out where to begin when making your movie, or what to do after that, or what to do
after that, take a breath and look over this basic map of the 7 Stages of Film Production:
Development
The development period belongs to the project producer, who starts gathering the ideas
of the film–rights from books, plays etc., if needed–until the final draft of the screenplay
is completed. During this time, a first synopsis is done which will help the lead producer
sell the idea and raise funds. Often storyboards other visual aids will be drafted to
accompany the script and help the producer communicate the essence of the film.
Financing
Networking and making meetings, often in Los Angeles and to a lesser extent New
York, is how many producers will meet with possible financiers. Additionally, a lot of
producers travel to festivals, both domestic and international to show the project
materials to possible investors.
Pre-production
With enough funding in hand, pre-production can begin, starting with the selection of the
cast, crew, locations of the shoot, building of sets and props etc. Shot lists and put
together and the producer starts working on a schedule for the entire shoot, starting
broad and getting more specific as production begins to ramp up.
Production
The assistant director (AD) shines during production as the actual footage is filmed by
coordinating all the different teams at once. Actors, possibly after days or weeks of
rehearsing, finally shoot their scenes as the production crew–grips, lighting, sound,
camera, etc. work hard to make every second count and shot look as great as
possible. Writers and producers may be on set but it’s the director who is calling all the
shots creatively–with their AD making sure they’re sticking to the schedule and getting
the footage they need before it’s time to move on.
Post-production
This where the editor comes into play, and if the budget is big enough, visual effects
teams.
In collaboration with the director, editors begin to assemble takes and shots and create
a linear film based out hours of footage. For bigger productions, teasers can be done
during this time in order to start marketing. A music composer comes in to orchestrate
the score of the movie as final cut begins to loom. Sound design and color direction are
important elements during this time as well, and culminate in picture lock–the final edit
of the film.
Marketing
In the case of a major production company, teasers are already out to promote the
release date of the film. In other scenarios, promotional posters, festivals screenings,
and social media are best to help generate buzz for the film. If the production is small,
the creatives involved with the film may have to wear this hat whether they like it or not,
though it’s possible for producers to outsource to small marketing companies that do
this for a living.
Distribution
Non-broadcast media is a term used to describe audio and visual media that can be
accessed at any time. It is information that can be turned on and off, paused, rewound,
and fast-forwarded at any time. All of which includes recorded television, radio,
podcasts, the internet, and streaming services.
Planning is nothing but thinking before the action takes place. It helps us to take
a peep into the future and decide in advance the way to deal with the situations, which
we are going to encounter in future. It involves logical thinking and rational decision
making.
Step 1: Gather Your Content. Without content there can be no resource center, so make
sure you have enough content to warrant creating a resource center. ...
Step 2: Decide on the Layout. ...
Step 3: Enable Social Sharing. ...
Step 4: Promote the Resource Center
Without content there can be no resource center, so make sure you have enough
content to warrant creating a resource center. Having three or more pieces of content
people can download usually warrants creating one. Blog articles can also be used as
part of the resource center, but they aren’t something people can download and won’t
directly help your business generate leads.
Your resource center should definitely have a dedicated homepage. The homepage
should highlight new or updated content, popular content and link directly to content
people can download. If you have a lot of content you could create specific homepages
that group each type of content together. For example, you could have a homepage that
outlines all of your whitepapers, one for all of your videos and one that lists all of your
presentations.
The final thing you need to do is make sure as many visitors find and take advantage of
your awesome resource center. You need to create calls to action that you add to your
blog, website and thank you pages directing visitors to the resource center. I would also
place the resource center in your website’s menu and promote it in your email
marketing communications and lead nurturing campaigns.
