So the movie lovers everywhere are able to get an overview before watching the film itself. And here we provide different things from previous reviews. And we make sure you as the movie lovers will be satisfied with it. High-definition video video higher resolution and quality from standard definition. Although there is no standard meaning for high-definition video images, generally with far more than 480 horizontal lines (North America) or 576 horizontal lines (Europe) are considered high definition. 480 scan lines are generally a minimum although most system greatly exceeded the limit. Standard resolution image captured at a rate much faster than usual (60 frames/second North America, 50 fps Europe), by high speed camera can be considered high-definition in some contexts. Several television series shot in high-definition video that is made to look as if they've been shot on film, a technique that is often known as the filmizing. HDTV broadcast systems associated with three main parameters: Frame size in pixels is defined as the number of pixels horizontal × vertical pixels, for example number of 1280 × 720 or 1920 × 1080. Often times the number of pixels horizontally are implied from context and omitted, as in the case of 720 p and 1080 p. Scanning system is identified with the letter p for progressive scanning or i for interlaced scan. Frame rate is identified as the number of video frames per second. For interlaced systems, the number of frames per second must be specified, but it is not uncommon to see a level playing field which is used instead. Naming of commercial products, frame rate often falls and implied from context (e.g., a television set 1080i). Frame rate can also be specified without a resolution. For example 24 p means 24 progressive scan frames per second, and 50i means 25 interlaced frames per second. There is no standard for HDTV color support. The color is usually broadcast using YUV (10-bit per channel) However, depending on the underlying technology produces an image of the recipient, it is then converted to RGB color spaces that use standard algorithms. When sent directly through the Internet, the colors usually pre-convert to 8-bit RGB channels for additional storage savings with the assumption that it's only viewable only on a computer screen (sRGB). As an added benefit to the original broadcaster, pre-conversion losses are basically making these files is not suitable for professional TV Broadcasting again.

DOMAIN *** USA 2016 Dir: Nathaniel Atcheson 97 mins  

Due to an epidemic of global proportions trying to wipe out most of the population, we meet a group of 7 people who have been placed in bunkers buried 30ft underground in a bid to make sure they survive and can not be contaminated. This group, and thousands of others, were chosen by lottery to survive in these bunkers equipt with everything they need to stay alive for the next 70 years plus if necessary. Although they are alone in their bunkers they are linked together in groups of 7 by a video interface system called Domain.
This is so they can communicate with each other, form relationships and work together as a team. Their main job being to monitor the statistics provided to them by their screens, in the hope that one day soon it will show that it is safe to leave. The people in this group go by the states they are from as their handles (seems blatantly lifted from Zombieland but we’ll ignore that for now), and start to notice things going wrong after they banish “Orlando” from their group for sounding off and just generally upsetting other members. At first they go about their normal business but then the bunkers start to malfunction and people start disappearing. This is when it makes quite a big plot turn and, although not wholly original, I thought it was a great twist and it did take me a bit by surprise. Due to the nature of the story which is very heavily dialogue and character based it’s lucky the characters are really well played and likeable. It features great performances by Nick Gomez from The Walking Dead and Kevin Sizemore from its sister series Fear The Walking Dead as well as Ryan Merriman (The Ring 2) and Britt Lower who seems to have taken a break from random Rom Coms. Nathaniel Atcheson has written and directed a quality story line with a great soundtrack (composed by Jonathan Snipes) the only thing that let it down a bit for me was the set itself as I thought the bunkers looked quite dated and old fashioned for something that’s supposed to be advanced technology plus some of the acting from the cast outside the bunkers was questionable but both gaffes can be easily overlooked, an enjoyable movie I could easily watch again.
