Film Workshop Test

Nope. No deletion. I'd say anything older than two to three months is a dying thread, and anything older than six months is dead. Dead threads have a smell and a memory. You've been there before, you have a vague memory of that moment, and coming into contact with it is like a clash between the past and present.

It's usually noobs resurrecting dead threads. User X joins on monday, and already he/she has racked up fifty posts with one liners like, " Great pics":Drogar-Evil(DBG): or " I feel the exact same way.":2vrolijk_08: It's even sillier when a dead thread is resurrected to answer a question that's already been answered.

Wanna see a really dead thread? Back when Jarred was Zoomforce and Hudson had posts in the single digits.

Dead threads baby....dead threads..

I think resurrecting dead threads is permissable during film discussion though. Anywhere else and you've got a serious :zombie_smiley: problem.
 
Good one. That must be one of the oldest threads. John didn't even have a DVX yet and he and Jarred talked as if they didn't know each other. Wow, was there ever such a time?
 
Just re-took it at school, so I had none of the answers from the test to fall back on.....

Your Score is 57 out of 73. Film Workshops Skill-Level Four.

Missed - 8, 9, 10, 25, 26, 34, 35, 52, 53, 54, 56, 57, 63, 65, 66, 67


Missed a few different ones this time, so I guess I'll take the average of the two....

so 57 + 41 = 98

98/2 = 49

Lol. I missed a lot of things about lighting and actual film itself. I know I need to beef up my skills in lighting and since I don't have any skills in film I understand my score.

My question that I submitted:
"If you take a baby and poke his eye out, you'll go to jail."

Answer: False- you just removed the lense from a 1k light.

Your Score is 63 out of 73. Film Workshops Skill-Level Four.
_______________________________________________________

MISSED:

8. Faster films have slightly more grain than slower films.
a. In order to make 'faster' film (film that is more sensitive to light than 'slower' film) larger particles of silver are used. These silver particles show up on the screen as increased grain.



10. Flare can be avoided by:
b. Lens flare is light bouncing around the glass elements inside a lens. This can be controlled by placing a black flag between the light and the lens, preventing direct light from hitting the lens.


34. Flashing is:
a. Flashing is the technique of exposing the film to a very small amount of light before processing (either before or after it has been exposed in the camera). The process effects the amount of detail seen in the shadow areas. Prints and intermediate films can also be flashed.


35. External focus lenses:
b. Older style external focus lenses tend to breathe, or change apparent focal length, when the focus ring is moved. This problem is greatly reduced in lenses that are designed with internally focusing elements.


47. EV numbers change at a rate of:
a. EV, or exposure value, numbers are a scale used by light meters. Each EV number represents one f-stop.


52. Pushing film decreases contrast:
b. This is false. Push processing, or force processing a negative increases its contrast.


54. To warm an image, use an:
a. The 81 series of filters are orange and warm an image. The 82's are blue and cool off an image. ND, or neutral density filters, have no effect on color temperature.


63. Back focus is more critical with:
a. Back focus is the opposite of depth of field; depth of field is more critical with long lenses, while back focus (the are that is in focus behind the lens) is more critical with wide lenses.


65. The roll bar on an NTSC TV photographed with a film camera will not move if the camera:
c. Although it won't make it disappear, a 144° shutter angle at 24 fps will cause the roll bar on an NTSC television monitor to stop moving.


67. The hyperfocal distance puts everything in focus from:
c. The hyperfocal distance is the point on the lens focusing system where infinity first comes into focus. When set at the hyperfocal distance, everything in front of the lens that is between half the hyperfocal distance and infinity will be in acceptable focus.
 
Wow, 15 eh? Haha, now I don't feel THAT bad..I got 29. Oh well, never shot film either.
