Dan
Strickler..A Weva Award Concept
Winner...provided a humorous yet informative view into ...”What
we needed to Know about F.Stops...” The 20 minute video showed how
....F Stops....Shutter Speeds....and the use of Gain control...can be
effectively used. The use of slow shutter speeds and how it effects image
motion...The use of gain and how it could relate to film speed in a film
camera...The use of aperture control to obtain depth of field. Written
and edited by Strickler,
the excellent video provided humour, technical aspects and an array of
special effects. Conclusion...We all agreed that a DVD with chapter points
would be the next logical step. Thank you Dan, and Dave Hall.
