Image Flashing Swords 1.jpg frame right Flashing Swords 1 edited by Lin Carter , Dell Publishing Dell Books , 1973 Flashing Swords was a series of fantasy anthologies published by Dell Publishing Dell Books from 1973 to 1981 under the editorship of Lin Carter . It showcased the heroic fantasy work of the members of the Swordsmen and Sorcerers Guild of America SAGA , a somewhat informal literary group active from the 1960s to the 1980s, of which Carter was the guiding force. Most of the important sword and sorcery writers at the time of the group s founding were members later, membership was extended to other fantasy authors. The Flashing Swords series provides a cross section of the heroic fantasy of the period. Carter and SAGA also sponsored The Gandalf Award from 1974 1981. With the collapse of Carter s health in the 1980s the anthology series, the Gandalf award, and likely SAGA itself all went into abeyance. An interesting precursor of the series was Swords Against Tomorrow , edited by Robert Hoskins Signet Books , 1970 , an anthology which included pieces by four of the eight SAGA members of that time. Contents In all, twenty three stories were published in the series, all of them for the first time.

In cinematography , flashing is a method of contrast enhancement that takes advantage of the natural physical properties of film stock to bring out detail in darker areas of the print. The effect is produced by adding a very small and even level of exposure to the entire image. Since exposure levels increase logarithmically, this tiny level of additional exposure has no practical effect on an image s mid tones or highlights, while substantially boosting the shadows of the image, thus allowing darker areas of the image not normally exposed to become marginally visible. It can be applied to the film stock before, during, or after principal photography of the film, although always before the film s processing. When applied before or after shooting, this is generally done by a motion picture film lab. The level of flashing needs to be tested ahead of time and subsequently moderated appropriately against the light levels of the scene, or else it risks having minimal impact if too low or making the shadows milky when too high. On set flashing solutions include Panavision s Panaflasher, which is mounted in between the camera body and the camera magazine throat, and Arri s Varicon, which functions as an illuminated filter and can be viewed directly through the viewfinder for manual setting of the flash level. Flashing is usually described as a percentage of exposure increase to the film s base fog level. While the flash itself is often a neutral color temperature, the flash exposure could be any color the color of the flash will be imbued disproportionately into the shadows of the image. filming stub Category Cinematography fr Postlumination ... more details
