I Like Engineering, But I Love The

I Come From An Era When We Had To Figure Out How To Bolt A Camera To A Motorcycle Or An Airplane Or Dig A Hole And Find A Canyon Deep Enough To Repel Into It So That We Can Capture Images That Were Real.

Once The Image Was In The Digital Environment, One Of The Problems Was, We Had No Means To Reproduce The Color Spectrum, Grey Scale, And Contrast That Film Produces, Without Converting The Digital File To Film, Evaluating It, Then Going Back And Changing The Digital Image.

Digital Imaging Has Untied Our Hands With Regards To Technical Limitations. We No Longer Have To Be Arbiters Of Technology; We Get To Participate In The Interpretation Of Technology Into Creative Content.

If You Understand How The Real World Feels And Looks And Sounds It Is Much Easier To Create A Virtual Version Of The Real World.

As With Sound, Images Are Subjective. You And I May Not See The Same Color Red As Red, But We Will Probably Agree That The Image On The Screen Is A Digital Image Or Film Image, Based On Contrast, Bit Depth, And Refresh Rate.
